Why is there so much hate in Europe and North America against Muslims?

[Karmadhi]

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?

Lower developed stages are prone to fixating on minorities on the source of problems or projecting their goals into them.

In the US there was a wave of this due to 9/11 and other attacks, and in Europe resentment over Muslims being many of the immigrants who increasingly moved there.

Governments also exploit this to get the population on their side to expand foreign operations for geopolitical gains. Similar thing happened dealing with native Americans, Japanese, Vietnamese, when their countries were targets.

Its hard to be accept because we consider the modern world advanced but I think it's generational hatred and the ingrained/learned fear of someone different. The Abrahamic religions have been hating each other since they started. Even Muslims of different sects hate each other. Protestants and Catholics have been killing each other for years. 

We get shocked by Hitler actions but, did you know that when Genghis Khan invaded Europe, the Christians started burning the Jews alive in an effort to find some to blame? Compared to history, Hitler isn't that crazy or unique and neither is today's bigotry. 

This shit goes back centuries and it's still with us today. Just like our cuisine and language is inherited from 1000s of years ago, so is our hate.

Muslims are the new Jews and I'd we dint watch out another Holocaust could happen.

Fascist parties are on the rise and a Naziparty is currently smtge strongest in Germany. 

The future is dark and the only way is to retreat to inner values because the palestinian genocide showed us how hypocritical western countries are when they keep talking about human rights

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

When Russia put Syria to ashes in a 14 year long Civil war, which would have never happened without Putin, the European Union was Russias strongest bussiness partner with literally 0 Sanctions in place.

But when Putin invaded Ucraine suddenly he became this bloodthirsty monster that nobody knew about and now he has 25 sanction packets, how does he dare invading a country with white people.

The European Union seriously gives 0 damn about PAlestine, everyday at least one child is burning  or being buried alive there through bombardments and they are still the strongest partners of Israel, not even considering the weapon exports to Saudi Arabia helping in their Yemen War.

European countries are the most hypocritical and nasty countries there are. Accept the truth

Yes the countless terrorist attacks by europeans themselves are not even mentioned for more than a day. Just two days ago a polish right wing extremist killed 6 people, how much have you heard about it and how bloated does it become in the news in the coming days or weeks?

There are countless terrorist attacks by Europeans themselves, the difference is they dont get talked about and bloated up like when its done by an immigrant

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.
