Against a former Muslim, who fled a Muslim led country because of their Muslim laws. Telling them they’re a bigot for hating Islam is fucking condescending, white savior syndrome.

France is not a Muslim country.

Why categorize all French Muslims as killers when it's obviously a tiny majority? There are between 3 and 5 millions of Muslims in France

I would never have been able to compose this sentence because I don't speak English well. I agree with every word, every letter.

They blame us while we tell them what we have suffered.

Islam can be used by an autocratic state to impose its regime, but current Russia or North Korea don't need it to impose on their populations.

Categorizing several millions of people as killers because a few deranged people get radicalised seems shortsighted.
