You seem to know nothing about Germany
I know about Germans from a bunch of people on Lemmy who said racist stuff and they all prefaced it by saying they were German.

They seem to know nothing in general.

Germans suffer from mass obedience and mass conformism more than any other country in western Europe I've been to. It's a national disease
Lagom e best is commonly said in Sweden for a reason.

Criticizing people simply for holding a religious belief, so long ad those beliefs do not directly infringe on others (paradox of tolerance blah blah), is bigotry. Using mental gymnastic to say that the people themselves are not being criticized or being treated poorly is disingenuous.

This upsets me deeply. I'm German and I really don't care where people come from or how they look. Sure there are some prejudices in my mind, but I actively fight against them, because we're all just humans.
My partner comes from a South Asian country and I just see her as a bit more tanned than me, who is more pale. I genuinely don't understand the concept of skin colours and I'm regularly confused by it, believe it or not.
I'm sorry for everyone who is confronted with racism etc. I deeply hope that some day we overcome these arbitrary things that divide us.

What is this, middle school?

Islamic/religious beliefs don't necessarily infringe on others. I'm not religious. But religion is more complicated than what you're portraying.
But of course they always try and it's not just the Islamics, just look at Opus Dei for example, which is one of the groups behind the Heritage Foundation's Project 25.

I understand the issues with organized religion. It's just not an excuse to discriminate against religious people when most are low on the religious hierarchy and don't actively hurt or want to hurt others.

I misremembered it‘s spelled lagom är bäst. It means the middle is the best. Meaning mediocre non-confrontational conformity is great, among other things.
