I live in Antalya, Turkey. Maybe most of you think that Turkey is exactly like other middle eastern countries but its not. Most of us are not religious or conservative at all, and even conservative turks never insulted me before.
Today an Arab immigrant called me "Whore" out of nothing. I was just walking in the street and wearing a summerdress. He said that in arabic and thougt I wouldn't understand his language but I knew some curse words in Arabic (thanks to my Lebanese friend.)
I feel super unsafe since a lot of middle eastern immigrants came to our country, I've always supported immigrants and refugees when people were being racist and look what happened to me!
So, I'm asking this bc I know US and Europe is dealing with immigrant problem for decades. You guys problably have more experience about these kind of stuff.
Can they act like this in your country too? Or its happening here bc our government is too soft to them and they dont scared of being deported etc?

those causes are not related but every group has mix of bad people so it can happen anywhere including u. s.
I spent 25 years in this city and never happened before. Also its not the first one. Last summer i was working in a reception of Turkish bath/spa and it was men and woman mixed place. A muslim Arab family came and they i told them that spa is mixed they staterted to insult ME (?)
They were like "Oh you were susposed to be a muslim country, allah will punish you bC of that, you'll go to hEll, where is your DIGNITY" I was a LITERALLY worker there?
They also record turkish woman on street without their consent and share them on tiktok bc "they dont wear covered enough"
They move to another country and they push their culture to us. Its not acceptable.
Its not just about being bad or good. Werent religious people existed there before immigrants came? They were. But they never acted like this.
No matter how badly someone acts, they aren’t getting deported and they know it. Most people don’t do that, but it’s disgraceful that you were insulted like that.
Its bad how those people are encouraged to be this way cuz government does nothing to avoid this bulls.. t
