France is so fucking racist. It has always been, but the wave of extreme islamophobia is frankly alarming. Muslims are vilified in every article. They are constantly put together with ISIS, even if it is Muslims that are the most killed by this organization.
Mosques are being closed “for propagating extremist ideologies”, but we have a christian party and a christian movement that made extremely racist and homophobic comments and went marching in the street spreading hate, and still got away with it. Their churches didn’t close because they were propagating extreme ideologies. The mere concept of a christian political party in a laic country is a joke. Imagine the uproar an islamic political party would cause here?
We have holidays based on christian events. A few days ago everything was closed because of The Assumption of Mary. Everything is closed on Sundays, too. We remember that we are supposed to be a state not based on any religion only when it’s about harassing women in hijab. Veiled women are depicted as radicalized people trying to convert our poor french citizens, when they are the most targeted and harassed persons in this country.
Our media only picks the information that could make non-muslim french the most afraid possible, and ignores the rest. Everybody is talking about what happened on that beach, that fight between corsicans and muslims, but no newspaper is talking about how corsicans did a raid in neighborhoods with a strong muslim community.
Even the most “open minded”, left wing newspapers keep telling how muslim women are victims of their religion, keep talking about islam when they don’t know anything about this religion. Nobody asked the opinion of the women who MADE THE CHOICE to be veiled. Everybody assumes they are enslaved and our women’s rights minister is leading a war against them.
And I am only talking about islamophobia right now. If you knew the number of blackfaces, white washing, racist insults and racial discrimination you have to go through on a daily basis when you’re not white in France. The situation here is crazy, and NO ONE is talking about it. White french people just pretend they don’t see what’s happening or dismiss the experiences of french people of color.
I am really ashamed of this country and I don’t see a bright future for it.
i am so scared for next year's election
