THREAD: I don’t understand. You listen to Jews about what is/ isn’t anti-semetic. You listen to black people about what is/ isn’t racist. You listen to trans people about what is/ isn’t transphobic. As you should.But you don’t listen to Muslims about what is/ isn’t islamophobic??
The Muslim community feels ignored. Every fucking Muslim I’ve talked to feels abandoned. I’m saying this but... everyone I’ve talked to has FELT this. It feels like... I can stand up for everyone yet nobody will stand up for me. It genuinely hurts.
You can say I’m being problematic and extra but... this is pure honesty. Transparency. This is how we feel.
Muslims in the Middle East are facing endless wars and poverty, Muslims in China and Myanmar are facing genocide. Muslims in India are facing intense persecution. Muslims in Europe and America are facing islamophobia and xenophobia. When does it end??? When do people start caring
The French laws may be for everyone but... it isn’t the solid laws that are the problem. They’re scapegoating every day muslims for terrorists. Islamophobia is going up.... they have the laws for everyone but who do you think they’ll use it against??
France is known for its xenophobia and racism. It’s known to be intensely islamophobic.
