[quote=“GuyInTaiwan”]Of course, the problem is all with how others perceive and treat Muslims, which is why the Islamic world is so famous for its Nobel Laureates, or its inventions or what it manufactures. Oh, wait a minute, aside from oil, 1.4 billion people produce absolutely fuck all of worth to anyone. Likewise, East Asian and Muslim immigrants in France, Germany and the Netherlands are both known for having similar levels of educational achievement, as are their children. Likewise with employment levels, violent crime levels, etc. Except they’re not. Cut the PC crap. Merkel isn’t calling out Vietnamese immigrants for a very good reason.
There are two ways out of this, and neither is nice for the PC Brigade. The first is to be terribly mean and demand these miscreants get their shit together, preferably by not encouraging/allowing them to get on welfare. The second is to brush it under the carpet until it gets worse and worse and everyone starts gnashing their teeth when a populist far, far right party rises out of nowhere (or predictably out of an economic crisis) and the shit really hits the fan.
Before anyone makes the analogy, no, this is not like the 1930s. The Germans ripped the heart out of their culture and scientific fields when they killed the Jews or drove them off to America. If every Muslim packed up and moved tomorrow, it would not have the same effect. Not even close.[/quote]
You’ve obviously never heard of chemistry or the experimental method or migratory patterns of birds or the telescope or windmills or algebra or the countless contributions to the arts, literature, music etc etc. Other than all of those contributions that they have made, you’re right, Muslims have made no contribution to the world and produced nothing of worth to anyone.
I don’t know whether you had an experience with a Muslim person at some point that causes you to have a view of them as a group that doesn’t match any form of reality or you’re simply a bigot. I hope it’s the former and you work your issues out sometime. Perhaps an extended trip to a predominately Muslim country would open your eyes to how life really is.
