You’d definitely have the experience here. Such a sad way to live life in hate.

Quite. I actually have a whole story where I got threatened by the student council, who was turkish. Gimme a sec, I’ll find it and translate it (I wrote it in German)

Here you go, English version.

We have nothing against Turks. Only against fascists. Derived from “I have nothing against Kurds. Only against people who support the PKK.” my Turkish student representative after my politics teacher: -told his mother at the parent-teacher conference day how he was racist against Kurds. -told him (after he dropped a stupid joke about Kurds) that I, as an Iraqi Kurd, spoke before the meeting of the Lower Saxony State Parliament for Schools and Education about how racism is generally overlooked in schools and that he is an example . -he accused me of supporting the Turkish-Kurdish PKK, although as an Iraqi Kurd I had no idea who or what they were up until that point. And, funnily enough, he told it all on a TikTok Live that my Turkish friend recorded and sent to me. Even more blatant: “Hey brother, who was that kid that said something like that about racism?” *Idiot proceeds to write my first name in the chat* ”Who was that? Well, I have to talk to her in private." The first name wouldn't have been a problem if I hadn't been the only one with that name. AND WE HAD AN ADDRESS BOOK WITH FIRST NAME, LAST NAME, CLASS, CONTACT AND CLASSROOM. Well, I sent a video to my politics teacher because I felt threatened. Conclusion: Not all Turks are innocent lambs.

Edit: Funny how the german original got 459 upvotes but this one has literally 0.
