Jeff, I said what I said.
I didn't say Americans are stupid or idiots. I said Americans are uneducated. And they are.
As a nation, our people objectively don't know enough about the countries or people that we are so keen to bomb. We know very little about Islam, but have made Islamaphobia a big part of our identity.
I have lived in lots of countries around the world. And I'm speaking from experience as well as quantitative facts about how little Americans know.
Europeans are 3X more likely to know a foreign language, and 6X more likely to be Muslim. Africa and Asia have even more Muslims and aren't as keen to invade and bomb other nations.
Your silly, sensitive self thinks because I live in California now, that I've always lived in California. I've lived in Europe, Asia, Africa, and North America. My name is Mekka, and I live in the US, so I experience the uneducated American response to Islam very frequently.
I didn't calls Americans stupid or idiots, but I am saying that you are a weirdo for trying to tell me to STFU, and for being a little baby about the very obvious facts that the US is a nation ignorant enough to elect Trump (twice!), and start a war with Iran that is destroying the global economy, and throw a hissy fit because Abdul El-Sayed said "Inshallah."
I will not STFU. If you don't like what I said, either do something to make your ignorant countrymen less violent, or GTFO of my mentions. If you want to teach so bad, feel free to do that your own way on your own feed.
Weirdo.

@mekkaokereke@hachyderm.io I'm not saying there aren't Americans who don't understand Islam
I'm calling bullshit that "the rest of the world" understands it, and doesn't have issues
Go check out how many Muslims have been burned to death on trains by Hindus in India.
I'll wait.

If you want to make Americans' level of knowledge of Islam your issue, I'm fine with that
If you want to say we are sort of outlier in the world, you and I have issues
That's ignorant, and ignorance is what has lead us to where we are

The mayor of New York is a Muslim
A Congresswoman from Minnesota is a Muslim.
A Muslim from Michigan is poised to be a Senator

You seem to only want to look at the bad, instead of looking at the good and trying to grow it
