How about having people on the train and in restaurants demand you to stand up and make space for them to sit?
How about school children in a holiday camp having to flee under police protection in the middle of the night because the local nazi youth tried to raid their camp?
How about terrorists murdering them openly in the street?
How about having your right to demonstrate be taken away and you being threatend with deportation if you voice your opinion publicly. Especially with deportation to countries like Syria where as a refugee who fled to Europe you can expect to be tortured, murdered and dissappeared.
All of these are the reality muslim people in countries like Germany, or people who are deemed to be muslims, which also affects arabic or arabic looking jews.
The people most happy right now are the local Nazis, who would murder both muslims and jews if they could and are happy to fuel the fire.
So in propping up the islamophobia and peddling to both the Nazis and to Israel in fear of being considered antisemitic, the politics in Germany and similiar countries are also propping up antisemitism.
EDIT: Holy hell i didn't expect there so many people having a problem with facing the real racism in the countries they live in. No wonder fascism is on the rise as the rest looks away. On the receiving end of this will be all minorities, doesn't matter if jewish, muslim, LGBT, disabled or anything else people might take as a "reason" to discriminate against them.
That is also the reality of many women in muslim countries. Whats your point?
So murdering people is okay to you because other people do it? You are fucked in the head.
Yes? That is literally how war works. We kill you because you kill us otherwise. Are you also saying that Ukraine is the bad guys because they kill russians?
self defence in war against enemy fighters is very different from heinously killing someone without any actual danger to yourself.
in the same wake killing a fighting soldier in a war is legitimate. killing a surrendering soldier is a war crime.
It shouldnt be a surprise that yes, an intolerant society that doesnt even tolerate its own people isnt tolerated elsewhere much.
And by being accepting of women being harassed in the streets for not adhering to western clothing, for people being murdered at random while running their shops and paying taxes you show a great deal if a tolerant society...
The amount of projection and hipocricsy that runs through European racists like you is truly mindboggling.
Ah funny, using the racist card for defending people being entirely intolerant and antisemitic. The irony.
