Why muslims really are hatedsteemCreated with Sketch.

I just read a post on Steem by a User named "Yoda1917" in which is called "REAL REASON MUSLIMS ARE SO HATED - A below the surface perspective."
These Reasons Yoda wants us to believe are

  1. Propaganda by the mainstream media in which most muslims are portrayed as evil terrorists who hate us all
  2. There are "some" extremists
  3. They want a better life in western countries so they come to these countries
  4. They don't believe in debt so the bank systems want them out

To all of these things I've got something to say.

  1. So what? Germans are getting portrayed as Nazis in movies, too. Russians are portrayed as Communists, too. Nobody with a right mind thinks that all Germans and all Russians are evil based purely on movies.
  2. There aren't just some extremists.

    According to the worldwide accepted Pew Research Center there are millions of muslims that are supporting ISIS. And don't forget one thing: It's just about ISIS, not about terrorist groups generally speaking. ISIS and Al-Qaeda for example hate each other. There are millions of terrorists in Islam.
  3. If they want a better life and adapt to our culture, work and such things, why would anybody hate them for that? Apart from that: That's purely racist because you say that muslims are always from third world countries. By doing that you imply that every arab is a muslim. This is just a hard insult for everyone who can think and has to live in an islamic country. Also, there are also Muslims that are Americans and converted to Islam during their lives.
  4. They do believe in debt, but that just as a side note. If they buy things they can't afford and don't pay for anything when they have no money, why is it considered damnable if the creditors hate them? Just imagine you had a little shop and there is a group of people who doesn't pay for the things they buy. How would you react?

Here is the REAL reason muslims are hated
Because they are a threat to everything every normal person stands for, like freedom of speech, democracy, liberty of women and homosexuals and so on.
If you don't believe me, just look at the following picture which is by surveys by the Pew Research Center.

And don't misunderstand these things as "Every muslim is a terrorist" or something like that. I know muslims that are really nice, just as I know some nazis that are nice people, but that doesn't mean that these people are free from beeing critiqued.
Thanks for reading these lines and I wish you a good day.
