On what grounds do you claim that a head scarf is a universal symbol of destruction? Don't answer that, you don't have grounds and you'd just give an Islamophobic spew if you tried.

Could you imagine if Belgium was like "we're banning cowboy hats because they're associated with Yankees and the Yankees have been historical terrorists." That'd at least make more sense than this because the terror done by the US is much more real than any terror ascribed to modern Islam - and in fact some of the actual terror coming from Muslims in recent history is fomented by the US in the first place. But somehow I doubt you'd think it's reasonable, regardless.

When you put this in context, yeah, that thing you were being rude about others supposedly not doing, it's just white supremacy vilifying the non-white person again, under the guise of the non-white person ascribing to a "bad ideology", while ignoring the fundamentally oppressive power dynamic and the galling hypocrisy of pretending to care about "extremism" while the institution of white supremacy continues to treat the world like a punching bag, coin purse, and beachfront property.
