The most educated and refined Muslims I have met have presented very enlightening thinking publicly, and once they think of me as a friend and sympathetic, they express the most vile and repressive thoughts on matters. These are members of powerful and wealthy families who have taken advantages of every benefit that a westernized life can afford, from Ivy League educations to comfortable lifestyles. While most ‘non-believers’ may hear what Islam wants you to hear. I have the benefit of having a very ambiguous appearance often confused for everything from Middle Eastern to Spanish to South American to Indian, and they seem compelled to share their true beliefs with me, thinking me a sympathetic ear.
Thanks for your inside perspective. Not at all surprising to me.
I work for Afghani and Palestinian Muslims
They is currently they’re nice people but now that I’ve gotten to know them better their anti-Semitism comes out of the woodwork
It’s funny to hear people spout their Jewish conspiracy theories it really is hilarious
