The worst part is that I feel like sometimes in some cases they have a point.
Some cultures have elements that just dont mesh with general western societies values. Take “Halal” slaughter of animals for example, I dont agree with it because it places unnecessary suffering onto the animal. I eat meat but I hope that the animal has a happy healthy life and then have a quick painless death. But I know plenty of people who just rally against halal on the grounds that its for “them” not because they understand what it is at all.
You try talking about elements of some cultures (like forced child marriage or a man being legally allowed to discipline his wife) that you dont agree with being brought to and endorsed in your country and people try to brand you as a bigot or a racist for not accepting their culture, I dont oppose “them” I’m against “that”.
