I (usually unsuccessfully) vote blue in local/state elections because the alternative in my district is candidates handpicked by an evangelical megachurch that is actively importing like-minded people from the rest of the country so they can achieve an even tighter stranglehold on state politics.

You’re either the dumbest person on this website or just racist (I know which one my money is on), take your just asking questions routine back to reddit-logo

wearing them makes them different. In French culture wearing them is not something French people would do

This is just a (not very) roundabout way of saying that you’re upset that brown people live in France. Nobody is saying that non-Muslim French people not wearing them is Islamophobia, just that this reaction is very obviously rooted in racism and Islamophobia.

as a sort of expert on commercial fishing/fisheries management and economics, absolutely not especially to the degree where it is worth the backlash this is getting. This strikes me as an incredibly dumb decision from a pr standpoint at the very least, and it's the sort of thing that could lead to ramifications for the actually important parts of the Icelandic seafood industry if any countries decide to restrict seafood imports over the whaling (which has happened before in other circumstances)
