europeans act as if muslims are invading their countries and trying to make them muslim…bitch have you ever seen a muslim missionary? yeah that’s because they don’t exist. muslims aren’t supposed to try to convert people fkldfjasldf. white christians sure are trying to convert people, though!
colonialism is a part of too many white peoples’ identities on a level they don’t even understand…like a subconscious level. case in point: they don’t understand that someone might immigrate because they need a place to go or because they simply want to live somewhere else. conquest is the only reason for going to a “foreign” country that they are capable of conceptualizing. it’s so deeply ingrained that you see liberal white americans going “we are all immigrants!” as a counter to people on the right saying that immigrants need to leave the country…like no, the majority of white americans did not come here as immigrants, their ancestors came as colonizers. the majority of black americans did not come here as immigrants, their ancestors were kidnapped. native americans are not immigrants, they are native. immigration and colonization are not the same thing! not even a little bit!
