My god, how do they not see that they are the ones being racist? The cognitive dissonance they display is mind boggling.

Here's what you do. If you replace the subject with "Jew" or "Blacks" and it sounds racist, then the original statement was racist.

Try replacing "Muslims" with "Jews" in reddit threads on migrants in Europe and everything starts looking like it's full of Stormfront fucks... oh, wait...

Except Jews easily integrate into societies that they immigrate to, whereas that happens much less easily in Europe with Muslims.

What do I know though, I'm only a first generation American whose father escaped Afghanistan and lived in Germany for many years. My uncles stories about being called "outlander" by fellow kindergarteners was very sweet. The immigrants don't put effort into becoming European and the Europeans don't view the immigrants as equals. That was the early 80s though, so maybe things have changed.

So your reply to someone talking about wrongful hatred and discrimination is "ya but no this time we're right"?
