@mathieu8111998@zajef77 I’m a colored Asian. Why do I have a different experience? And I do agree Arabs are ethnocentric but how does this pertain to cops in those countries???
@mathieu8111998@zajef77 Okay you are construing my argument here. I have been to Philippines and Mexico (a lot). I have dealt with corrupt cops. They exist. We are talking about cops in the West, where Zajef is from. And not all cops in those countries are bad either. They are symptoms of policy.
@mathieu8111998@zajef77 No it’s not lol - I lived there for 10 years and still have friends and family across multiple countries in the Middle East. So who is lying or exaggerating? Maybe it happened to you but stop speaking for all immigrants in those countries.
@mathieu8111998@zajef77 It’s white people with plenty of daddy’s money with things handed to them and live in gated white communities that think cops are bad. Or I guess terminally online delusional people. Most of us live in the real world and want cops to guarantee safety and prevent crime.
@mathieu8111998@zajef77 Most legal immigrants are law abiding citizens and rarely get in trouble even though we have darker skin. We have no problems with cops. We have the lowest incarceration rates per capita. Many of us have businesses that we built and don’t want looters ruining our hard work.
@mathieu8111998@zajef77 Government policy can lead to authoritarianism which you can argue impacts the police force in a bad way. But we are talking about the primary purpose of the police force which is for community safety and enforcement of the law. That is very much supported by most immigrants.
@mathieu8111998@zajef77 Also we are talking about cops or government policy and politics? To have some agreement - I am skeptical of politicians in general and Arab states are very entho-centrist. But cops are independent enforcers of safety and at the end of the day, agents of the law.
@mathieu8111998@zajef77 You are hopeless. Imagine claiming to know how people around the world think and claiming to know more than people about the countries they come from. You probably think Cubans are wrong for fleeing communism and Persians for fleeing Iran. Dude get over yourself and travel more.
@mathieu8111998@zajef77 Oh insults! I’m an immigrant that has lived in multiple countries in the East and the Middle East that immigrated to the US. Your take is considered delusional by most people in the world. Try visiting a few immigrant specific forums and try stating your opinion. GL!
@mathieu8111998@zajef77 Duh? So? Of course, corrupt cops do exist in the east and west. Doesn’t make them the majority. Most of them are good and put themselves in harms way in service to the community. It’s easy to judge others while sitting in AC and playing video games.
@SirBylHolte Agreed. Why do white people destroy their fantasy and mythology by incorporating other races? Imagine doing that to Chinese, Japanese, Indian, or Egyptian stories and myth. I’m non-white and I would prefer my Tolkien to by strictly Anglo-Saxon.
@B_Mitchell43@michaeljknowles Sigh everyone knows that…Other than some niche theological concepts and the pope, Orthodox and Catholics are vastly the same. The differences between us and Protestants are in contrast night and day. What beliefs changed for Catholics? Evidence from historical scholarship pls.
@m_anthonyharris@Saved5872@michaeljknowles I didn’t realize there was an RCC AD 52? By your logic - one question for you? Where was the Bible in AD 52? The Bible of AD 400 looks nothing like AD 52.
@B_Mitchell43@michaeljknowles Are you claiming that most of the world outside Protestant America got it wrong? Do you realize that most of the world is Orthodox or Catholic with identical / similar traditions and rites except for Protestants who somehow can’t even agree on most things with each other.
@B_Mitchell43@michaeljknowles Do you think people in the East are stupid & blindly follow Rome / don’t have our own historical records? Do you think Christ instituted a Church & let the “poor, unintelligent” people in the East be deceived by evil Rome until Brian on X showed them the light 2000 years later?
