A civil society report by the organization Claim documented more than 3,000 anti-Muslim incidents in Germany in 2024.
The report links the surge to geopolitical events and warns of growing normalization and brutality in anti-Muslim racism.

I’ve met German (and French) women in Australia who’ve openly said they’ve got a Muslim men problem. e: I was somewhat shocked to hear it as an Aussie. We were all at a party round a fire and they all started comparing stories of hassles they got back home.
What are you trying to say here?
Germany took in a ton of refugees (migrants is the wrong word), some percentage of which have has extreme trouble moving into a very different culture, it was a huge culture shock for everyone and it had led to problems inside the country that are fueling this hatred.
Not fucking rocket science.
It’s mostly Arabs which have trouble fitting in due to the vastly different organisation of society, down to predominant family system, while e.g. Turks fit in quite well. Gesticulating mediterranean drama queens, sure, but so is everyone from Spain to Greece. There’s also a fuckton of Turkish-Arab beef. Afghans are also usually completely overwhelmed but also much more cut off from their background and on top of that accustomed to a multi-ethnic society. It’s more of a “start a new life” type of thing for them, less “bring your clan baggage with you”. Iranians don’t even register, Albanians if then as Balkaners.
I guess the reduction to “Muslim” might happen organically with easterners as Turks never really made it there in appreciable numbers. Outside of Berlin, that is, and the rest are pretty much invisible. Like, imagine if the only English-speaking people you ever met were all Americans, what you’d think of English speakers as a whole.
Jesus, if british comedy didn’t exist, people would think English is just for joyless, shitty, jerks
Thanks, this doesn’t explain why OP is sharing that anecdote and I still don’t know what they’re trying to say with it.
Are they saying Germans hate Muslims? Are they saying hating Muslims is justified?
Neither, they’re giving an anecdotal example of the effects of what I previously noted.
Yeah that’s trivial to mention. I still care about why they shared the anecdote and you can repeat the obvious as much as you want but it won’t answer my question.
I mean you said it yourself, answer is obvious. Peace!
Not what I said, bye.
