Who doesnt hate Muslims though? I havent seen a single person online or offline who does not hate the hive mind that is Islam.
I've witnessed second-hand horrible muslims, yet first-hand I've met good ones. Not denying awful muslims exist, and that they are in considerable numbers. But I wonder why I've been lucky... here's my thoughts.
I've lived two years in Kuala Lumpur in majority-islam areas. I've lived a year in Bali, with weekend travels throughout the island and to other islands. I've also befriended multiple Persians (Iran and the other *-stans). The issues I've noted were not especially religious, but seemed ethnic or just human.
In Malaysia, it's 30% malay, 30% indian (so malaysian born and bred, but indian ethnicity; akin to how singaporean indians are different culture to india-indians), 30% chinese — the malay I could not get along with, they are agreeable and neurotic to the extreme, with a repressive personality from a long history of colonialism, and are replicating the same, sitting in air-conditioned offices while they hire indians and indonesians to do all the actual work that they consider beneath/disagreeable/inhumane to them — in legal matters, there is also malay supremacy. The indians and chinese were always friendly and helpful, and would go out of their way to assist me. The chinese were very entrepreneurial. The more islamic the neighbourhood, the cleaner it was, and at no point did myself or female cohorts feel unsafe or disrespected. The courts have a dual-court system, sharia-courts for islamic law for muslims, and civil courts outside sharia and muslim jurisdiction. All in all, it was the best quality of life for the value I've ever had, and never experienced or witnessed or heard of any crime (reading Blue Ocean Strategy and co, it documented the effective strategies they used to solve crime).
In Indonesia, they have an extreme amount of sub-ethnic/cultural diversity, with any rollout of Islam or Christianity or even Hinduism being an Islam+, or Christianity+, or Hinduism+ as they are overlayed/integrated with their indigenous culture/beliefs/traditions/values — this respect for diversity is codified within their national identity — that said, there is a Javanese-supremacy that I've observed, where they feel a sense of supremacy and will speak on behalf of the other islands who they view as primitive and uneducated incapable of making the correct decision (just like how Democrats and Republicans caricature each other in the USA) all-the-while practicing utter ignorance about those islands and even denying what locals from those islands state. West of Bali is majority Islam, Bali is Hindu, and east of Bali is still their local religions with spots of Islam or Christianity.
As such, I've found the disagreeable thing in my interactions with people to be more-or-less human issues instead of necessarily religious/ideological issues; such as when one watches LiveLeak/LeakedReality/CrazyShit for about a thousand hours and discover that shit humans exist everywhere. Now, I'm not denying that religion includes a plethora of anti-human bullshit within it, such as the disciplined eradication of curiosity and inspiration, implanting instead obedience and superstition, as well as its ability to fuel extremism and radicalisation. However, such issues I've found even when talking with many western Christians too, that as soon as one gets to philosophy, they have a programmed fear response, their faith is challenged, they think they're getting betrayed by the devil, and retreat back into their ignorant-ideology like a beaten dog with its tail between its legs.
What seems to be the distinction to me, is whether one has assimilated an ignorance-response making them an ideologue, which is a human issue; religions are an intersection of this, but any ideology is too, even if secular. Whether they've codified ignorance into their character seems to be of human to human variance, of which of course, there are indeed ethnic and other demographical clusters. I've found Indonesians rarely have the ignorance response (outside Java), that they are an extremely curious people, who care about progress and getting to a universal betterment - you can argue and debate, and people will adapt to the supremacy of arguments. The Malaysian youth are for the first time now having the courage to think for themselves, and have establishing youth movements and support groups to encourage this self-discovery. The Persians I'm friendly with also replicate this humanity focused edification.
Yet, we can see in India/Pakistan, they have a different culture, one that retards such humanity-focused progress.
In short, I'm not denying Islam's leveraging of ignorance, but the onus seems better located at the human propensity towards ignorance, which is exploited by more than just Islam, India, and so on. I'm also yet to witness any reformation in anyone, Christian, Islamic, or otherwise (inc. secular) with an ignorance-coda. The pursuit to me is which quale correlate with which ignorance-codas, and then how to rectify it, if at all possible. Such as the uniquely Indian propensity to eat shit (already discussed in this thread; seems a multi-generational corruption of economic+mythic ideals), or the Catholic-priest and Pakistani/Afghan-muslim propensity to consider oneself religious yet fuck and rape boys (also already discussed; seems a corruption from pairing delegated agency with sexual retardation) — is it possible to ever solve such issues in the existing population, or is it only possible to edify the children? I really don't know, as unfortunately such clusters form into self-protecting groups alleviating their pain, which then retards their cognitive-dissonance error-correction mechanism that would otherwise force a reorientation towards a new sustainable practice of good (a resilient character that overcomes cognitive-dissonance via integration of the conflictual evidence into a superior whole, rather than a militant escapism that protect's their ideological prison).
That said, even if I don't know the solution to aged ignorance-codas, I'll still practice a humanity focused faith that while it rightfully punishes wrongdoing and protects those from wrongdoing, it still believes in one's always-present and universal capacity for salvation (claiming of one's own agency) even while they serve out their rightful punishments/discriminations; this doesn't deny a protection from such threats or the sole fundamental human right to discriminate (all other rights are downstream from this one, such as the freedom to think, and the freedom to act); but it does prevent an eternal threat escalation by blanket denying humanisation (a category error: humans have the ability to act humane (mankind) or to act like animals (barbarians); when someone acts subhuman we punish them / discourage it, but acknowledge their ability as a human to repent, as they aren't actually animals even if they act like it), such dehumanisation just causes both sides to endlessly dehumanise each other. So I guess I know what doesn't work.... that said, genocide is often called for against barbaric threats... however unless impeccably absolute (zero-inaccuracies), then it causes long-standing guilt and shame psychoses in perpetrator and victim, of which the human propensity towards pride retards any solution, and an eternal dehumanisation conflict continues, but with ever-increasing stakes (such as the case in Australia, where typical aboriginal pride rejects the clan-tribe-society-nation-civilisation hierarchy as euro-centrism, and the typical white pride rejects any supremacy of empire, causing endless entitlement concessions to continue, because an ignorance-coda has prevented calling it what it was; a barbaric underutilisation of resources that can further humanity, which in turn was barbarically punished and exiled for the progress of empire, to the march of the supreme ideal of global civilisation/brotherhood/mankind which is consistently reforming to challenges, such as moving from tribalism to colonialism to imperialism to capitalism to socio-capitalism to sovereign-socio-capitalism).
