Hello I have noticed an insane amount of hatred online and even by real people, including politicans towards Islam and Muslims What I find weird is that they blame everything on the religion instead of the individual country or culture For example, if X nation's population has a higher crime rate, then they will say "islam strikes again" As if Islam promotes theft, rape, murder or other crimes They never look at the socio-economic factors or the national situation of these countries but basically blame it all on religion This is wrong for many reasons 1. Some of the safest countries in the world are hardcore muslim nations like UAE, Saudi or Qatar 2. You have nationalities or groups from non Muslim nations that also can perform more crimes per capita than non Muslim nations but they get sweeped under the rug 3. There is no clear teachings in Islam to promote crimes, things like theft, rape or murder are heavily punished in Islamic rules. 4. A lot of the people who do bad things are not even proper religious, they will for example do a crime while drunk which is anti muslim. 5. For some reason other religions get a pass. Hindus are not for example ever called terrorists even though they have done terrorisms. Same for Jews and Christians. I am personally not religious but i do have many muslim friends in the West and some have told me they feel unsafe due to this hatred and climate. They are not radicals or anything like that, very law abiding chill people. What do you guys think?

Ofc they do but they are hated for it in those countries My post was "why is china hated in the west" If china does to the west what the west does to other nations, it is normal china will be hated in the west too That is the realization I thought China did not menddle in west much

You really do a good job of sneaking your anti Muslim, anti Left, Pro Israel agenda in every thread

Dont you think we are seeing the rise of Stage Green in USA via the DSA in the democratic party They seem to grow more and more and for first time being elected in official positions I see them as becoming the main democrat representatives in 10 years or so Isnt that good news?

I opened some time ago a thread "Why is China demonized in the West so much" Maybe that is why, when they send agents like this..

You can use that logic for other religions too, that do not get hatred or demonized the same way. Only real exception is Budhism Hinduism promotes racism through its cast system Judaism promotes genocide through its amalek story and some sort of supremacy by calling x group 'chosen people" Christianity has a lot of similarity with Islam for eg they want to stone LGBT, strong and clear gender roles etc I remember there was this blogger who would recite passages from the Bible to random Americans and they sounded so extreme and harsh they thought it was from the Quran until they were told it is actually the Bible. It was Old testiment I believe. I would argue Islam is slightly more morally advanced, because it appeared later in time and we all know as humanity evolves so does its morality I am not shitting on any religion, I view them the same way you may view different movies, clearly from an impartial outside perspecitve I have 0 emotional attachment to any of them Therefore I fully understand that every religion was quite important and revolutionized the time it appeared Still I see a disproportionate amount of demonization towards Islam, especially in more "official" places like politics, media etc

European countries are very strange in this regard On one side their foreign policy and overall sentiment gives little care to non white non christians but on the same time, they allow in tons of refugees, allow them to get citizenship, vote and provide support. For example Germany with Syrians They are Mother Theresa when it comes to internal policy but quite heartless when it comes to foreign policy. Pardox in a way.

It is not just white or not It is religion too Bosnia, Kosovo, Chechnya are white yet less fucks given because muslim You need to be white and christian

There were terrorist attacks in Spain, UK, Ireland etc done by seperatist groups which were christian yet nobody blamed all christians for it

Thank you for your replies A few additional points I noticed in Europe, the political people tend to care more when Christians die than Muslims, even within Europe itself Examples: Bosnia and Chechnya war were largely ignored by Europe, Russia was literally called a good partner while they were doing horrific things in Chechnya Meanwhile when Christians in Ukraine start getting killed they flip out in outrage, even though you can argue Russia was more brutal to Chechens than Ukranians. Only intervention was Kosovo and there it was mostly USA and somewhat UK, the rest were dragged into it and probably wouldnt have intervened if USA did not want to. Not to mention Muslims outside Europe like Palestine, Yemen etc (almost 0 damn given unless there are massive protests to put pressure) So even within Europeans, Muslim Europeans lives matter less in historical terms

Zionism

She is bought totally by Israel To her it is not about Republican or Democrat It is about who is a friend of Israel and who is not Using that paradigm, her choice makes total sense.

I do agree that once the war began he did a great job given his situation However, I do think he could have tried harder to avoid the war Ask, why is Kazakstan, Uzbekistan, Armenia not being invaded by Russia? The solution is simple, be like them That is what good leadership would do You can grow, develop etc while being neutral instead of being pro West when Russia is your neighboor We do not see Mexico or Canada go anti USA do we? For good reason Cuba tried it and it got fucked hard by USA. Fun fact Kazakstan and Uzbekistan are growing more and improving their corruption just as much as Ukraine did during those 9 years where they were being pro West and not at war (2013-2022) And they are not getting invaded nor at risk to. https://www.transparency.org/en/countries/kazakhstan (10 point increase on last 10 years) and average 5-6 % GDP growth rate https://www.transparency.org/en/countries/uzbekistan (10 point increase on last 10 years) and average 5-6% GDP growth rate I do not think Zelensky had bad intentions but just lack of competence and realism. This idea that "Ukraine would become Belarus" if they accomodated Russia to me is nonsense You do not need to go full puppet state, you can be something in the Middle Kazakstan and Uzbekistan are good examples. They play it smart. I am referring strictly to before the war began when I say this. Ironically the Ukranian land Russia has taken will indeed become like Belarus because Russia is so pissed with Ukraine that they will not settle for anything than pure obedience and puppetry.

Hahahahhahahahahahaha

From what I have understood these are 2 biases i have noticed -Bias towards pickup as a solution to dating. In real life, the majority majority of couples or even hook-ups happen under other means of meeting people. Such as online dating, social circle, work, events etc. It is understandable your advice and guidance will be about pick-up since it is where you have experience, however I noticed that every time someone complained about dating, your first and only solution was to do pick-up. Basically the "no pick-up no dating" type of attitude. A more unbiased explanation is: "If you do not do pick-up then you can do social circle, work, events, online dating etc, just make sure you meet girls". This also ties on the volume question. if you do pick-up then yes, you need to do hundreds or thousands of approaches to get results. When it comes to other means, volume matters much less. I recall you have said "if you are not talking to 1000 girls you do not deserve to get laid". -Bias in geo-politics. I have noticed some biased comments like "Ukraine is a viable state and Palestine is not" or "Iran is held back by religious fundamenalism". In reality, Palestine is not any better or worse than Ukraine in terms of its worthyness of a state or of life. Could be because you have Ukranian roots and you view them as more viable. The type of government you have is irrelevant, self-determination is always to be respected. Regarding Iran, the reason they are struggling is because of massive American sanction. If it is was religion, Saudi would be poor. They are even more backwards than Iran and more hardcore fanatics. Yet they are rich af because no sanctions. I have to clarify in these domains you are quite objective but here are some things I consider biases. Maybe I am the biased one idk, but on the first topic I do not think so. Maybe on the second.

I read a bit about Einsekot, he is unfortunately a war criminal Only Yair Lapid seems somewhat sane amongs the main candidates

How are these people real It is straight out of a cartoon movie

Two things can be true at the same time. Putin wants land and USA uses that desire of Putin to profit themselves By USA i mean American companies and powerful lobbying groups I doubt the average American benefits from the war much The American deep state has no real incentive to stop the war as it is benefting from it As long as Russia is advancing in the front Putin has no real incentive the stop the war either Only losers here are Ukranian and Russian common citizens who are dying in mass Although to be fair I think some people overestimate the role of USA in this war a little too much In the end, it is about Ukraine and their desire to protect their land USA is milking the desire but it is not creating it, it would have existing with or without USA That is key to understand

They for sure hate Russia but saying "they want to kill them even if it means dying themselves" is a bit of a strecht They are nationalistic and want all their land which is not uncommon amongs countries But they do not strike me as kamikazes If overthrowing Putin was that easy, it would have been done already by the West. Not to mention you may get someone worse. Reason Ukraine does not strike civilians is because if they did they would loose the global image they have as the "good guy" Without that image, support for them would collapse and unlike Russia, Ukranine cannot fight this without massive assistance Not to mention there have been some cases of targetting of civilians but quite limited in scope and not fully clear if it was intentional or colleteral damage

I have not seen the documentary to comment but anyone willing to expose its own national devilry despite knowing they will be hated to me are absolute heros worthy of respect Similar to Edward Snowden

Most are conscripted and they are from poorer parts of Russia They received payments which relative to what they would earn back home were seen as attractive enough to enlist Whole reason why a proper mobilization is being considered now is because the people who were willing to be conscripted in exchange for money have run out and the rest wont do it. They did try a partial mobilization in 2022 but it did not go as well as expected and many fled Since then, they switched to the paid soldier formula which worked ok until now

No it has not, that is paid contractors A proper mobilization is what is going on in Ukraine where men over 25 cannot leave the country and tens of thousands have fled or been arrested and sent forcefully to the front The Russian army is mostly a mercenary army composed of people from poorer parts of Russia that find the payments to serve as attractive If Russia mobilized like Ukraine did, the army would have reached millions by now

Russia can never occupy all of Ukraine What they are trying to get is Donbass, that is what the whole war is about The Russian speaker part of Ukraine, full of minerals and historically pro Russian Some of the most extreme pro Russians want all of Novorussia, but the current battlefield situation makes obtaining it almost impossible https://www.google.com/search?sa=X&sca_esv=074237d04407bddc&sxsrf=APpeQnsQYhd0rqxekAkw303ZFSuk0iWGpg:1791914474679&udm=2&fbs=ABfTbFUyxjQn9bne4DuflY2dNqqKxYAWFhLCpnjf3OsLbYdPHYIWnuDjUICa-3MV7eck-5zE_RG19XA5pBi80xQt9FuHWjb8-OtFV-r6aKzxDrlMlV3exOBFl0_DZlL_xzp59_9IiJLFM6s1jSEkkuMux0RGE2yH6KysxLuTNHny-GqMobtWTQ6EgHJ2bM9qqCeFf7N5TMGW&q=novorossiya&ved=2ahUKEwiCpuzNybeXAxVa_7sIHfKnIF8QtKgLegQIGhAB&biw=1440&bih=765&dpr=2#sv=CAMSUxoyKhBlLUo1QXZSN3FYM0lodnlNMg5KNUF2UjdxWDNJaHZ5TToOUzBJVjBTWlZqSXIxVE0gBCoXCgFzEhBlLUo1QXZSN3FYM0lodnlNGAEwAVACGAcg8Nzn9wlKCBACGAEgAigB Western Ukraine cannot be occupied, it is too aggressive and anti Russian So Ukranian people can go to the non Donbass Ukraine which will not be conquered as it is not part of Russia war goals Russia cannot realistically end the war without getting all of Donbass (all 4 oblasts to be exact), and afterwards they can call it quit without loosing face to their own population Putin can survive politically if Donbass is captured and the rest of Ukraine is left independent. Of course he will want more if allowed but I doubt he would continue much further given the damage the war does to Russia. Putin cannot potentially survive politically if not all of Donbass is captured

Of course it does, but at what cost? Neither can Ukraine, it has 4x less population. Motivation to defend your country can only take you so far. Especially with the global shortage of advanced Western air defense weapons due to Trump "genious" Iran war. This winter will be brutal... Putin may be removed from office if he cannot sell the war as a victory in Russia which can mean death in a country like Russia He is too far gone to just call it quits A mobilization will happen in Russia if the war goes on much longer Do not underestimate how stubborn Russians can be The situation is very complicated as Ukraine cannot trust a Russian peace deal without NATO membership or presence of NATO troops in Ukraine which to Russia is the whole pretex they used to start the war. So both sides are stuck. And lets not forget Putin is not the only pro war person in Russia, someone even worse may replace him.

A campaign of public shaming and calling them traitors or self hating Israelis etc would be closer to what I would expect from a democracy Using state institutions like arresting or taking away citizenship seems more of something you would expect in an autocracy
