Aurani did you read my post on the bottom of last page?
Uh, why European muslims specifically instead of just...the Extremists?Aurani wrote:
On the topic of people outside not fighting for anything but money - that completely contradicts the point I made in that huge post. The ONLY people fighting for the ideals of great muslim empires are those OUTSIDE the Middle East. Most of the people in the Middle East probably don't even desire any wars or pick any sides, and they are the ones getting framed for terrorism and shit that's happening there, when in fact muslims from everywhere (mostly Europe) BUT that place are the ones who are to blame.
I'm curious.
Didn't see the edit. Your statement made me wondered about that.
Anyway, yesterday I saw an internship offer poster in Germany where the requirement is to submit an essay on the topic of counter terrorism and living in harmony. It doesn't say Muslims explicitly, but one of the topics is, I quote, "A lesson of Islam and democracy from Indonesia".
I know that Europe has the immigration problem, but I don't think what applies in Indonesia is going to work in Germany. Mainly because the Muslims here are not immigrants, they've been here for a long time (16th century). If anything, it was Christianity that was brought in by outsiders (hi Dutch). And it's not like we have it down perfectly. Clash between religions and races still happen. You won't see much about it if you talk with the middle class and above, but try talking to the people who barely have enough money to eat three times a day and you'll find some bad remarks about the Chinese or other minority group.

It's called an opinion. I have muslim friends who fall into the category of European muslims, and they're not bad people at all, but if you asked me what I think of muslims in Europe in general, I'll tell you that they're all incredibly low in my eyes, because I personally won't give a shit about the possibility of any one of them being good or not. Generalising usually displays a very narrow mindset when applied to personal thoughts, but the thing I was talking about are politics - I wouldn't ask every single muslim how good they are, I would just send them all away, but personally, once I get to know someone outside the "just a random assfag human being who I give zero shits about" I stop applying that logic to them.SaigonAlice wrote:

Yeah no, there is no way of applying that kind of thing to the European situation at all. Like you said, muslims there are native and have been for centuries (even I know some history of that place) and thus the overall culture is strongly tied to them. Meanwhile, the muslims here in Europe are ALL immigrants from the last century (apart from negros in France, because it's such a lovely idea to colonise Africa and let all dem negros move to you :V) and they have NO intentions of assimilating in the main cultures of those countries, but would rather convert it to their own, which is why there is such a rift between people nowadays.piruchan wrote:

damn Aurani, those photos are really scary. I understand why even your Muslim friend won't get near it.
Well, at least you admit it. You remind me of Alesteir Crowley though.Aurani wrote:

I don't think so? He practiced ~magic~ which I think was conflated as satanic. He was bi though.
Now for something more OT.
Piru, are you tainted or pure? If the latter is the case, you're my property.

Nay, was in Belgrade for a year and a half, decided to quit the uni there because fuck having 4 different math and 3 physics subjects. Much more interesting following my dream of archaeology whilst having business economy as a backup. Anyways, Novi Sad. :pAomi wrote:

Nay, I'm already aiming for a job involving my economy degree. :p
I thought about leaving, but idk, I can't leave the place I was born in. Doesn't help that Sirmium is still covered below Sremska Mitrovica, and my dream would be to help excavate it, no matter what. The reason I thought about leaving is because there is an internal struggle in me concerning my dream. Even if I got the chance, digging it up would mean also exposing it, and this country has little resources to maintain something on the scale of Rome in terms of valuable architecture.

I think its about trying many things out and sticking with one that feels ok to you, then specializing further in the respective field.
And some people just get really lucky and find the perfect match right off the bat.
Introspection and "sniping" certain fields helps, but I believe in the shotgun-approach where you just hit every field you can when you see the option.

I'd rather kill myself than be a mod. Being a mod would mean I can't shit on people that deserve it anymore, because I'm supposed to represent the good and polite side of this forum. No way.
wait, when was that ever a thing among mods?Railey2 wrote:

Well, thats at least my understanding about what being a mod should be about, and since I don't want to do that here, I'm not interested in becoming a mod.Dulcet wrote:
