i wish 911 never happened because now alot of people of people ask every mean things about the middle east i am getting sick and tired of people asking me if i am from iraq i it so much . we all are the same no matter how we
look we all are people not animals from hell am i right now that?
even just going though the airport is hard now , and when i speak Iranian
when we go places American people look at us like we are stupid .

one time at my old high school the boy in my class said you don't belong hear go back to your country
then he told me how he d middle eastern people .
i think that was the lowest time i have been through

personal opinion:

Personally, when this stuff happens I can see that its hot air, and since ignorance and arrogance is ultimately a sign of someone's moral inferiority I couldn't care less what they say. Although, ofcourse, detecting and discussing destructive ignorance (as you have done), maybe one of the most important steps to a better world.

Many if not most people in the world have problems related to lies and injustice made against them. Some have the privilege to channel that energy through constructive means. But such privilege is usually taken for granted and nothing gets done to correct an out-dated, destructive and evil world.

yes i now that you mean alot of people have problems and they choose
to pick on people when they are hurt lol
but all i am saying is that we all should like each other inside of hating each other. for me its hard because its not the same as living in tehran where everyone is Iranian these days Teens in my world are hard to ignore the things they say to you all my life kids and people have miss understood me because of they way i act and talk lol

here's the thing though... Prejudice is to your benefit, because ultimately people will see that they are wrong and become ashamed of it. Also, you have the opportunity to engage with society constructively and prove people wrong in your social interactions, in your education and in your future profession.

There is something about my signature/quote below that is relevant to you here. Difference is often shunned in society, yet any difference or 'eccentricity' should be praised in society. In other words, always speak your mind and don't hide your difference. Don't care about what others think. You will find satisfaction and many admirers and friends that way, and you will be successful in social politically-related professions. Not everyone is ignorant or is against your differences, you just notice the bad people more.

Not at all it only makes your battle that much harder
both with your self and out side
it is the waisted effort that you have to spend overcoming bs prejudice or whatever.
and in a competitive world you are at temporal disadvantage because
you can over come it.
