Or are all Qataris scum because some Qatari contractors employ slave labor?
Complaining about human rights violations is not "virtue signalling" when you do it?
Just FYI--since the Enlightenment, at least, there has been an ethical standard founded upon the notion of universal human rights. I.e., people have those rights regardless of religion or culture or color.
Since then, that standard has been incorporated into the UN Declaration of Human Rights and international law.
Some of us defend "Them"--non-white Mulsims--or apply the above-mentioned standard of universal rights to Them when judging their actions, regardless of religion or color.
That means white non-Muslims sometimes defend non-white Muslims, or at least refuse double standards when judging them.
But if distinctions between religions and color are fundamental to your determinations of who is "scum" and who is not, then it could seem that a white non-Muslim applying human rights standards to non-white Muslims was doing the same thing you are, just reversing the polarity.
Qatar is one of the works worst Human rights violators. A lot of this has to do with sharia law. It’s a scum bag nation. You can romanticize them all you like. We love to travel and see different countries it there is no way we would go Qatar for any reason. And before you launch into some anti Muslim thing we have gone to Turkey and Azerbaijan without any issues. Turkey was admittedly more dicey.
