Guys, will i be the asshole for cutting off this girl for her Xenophobic opinions about Islam and Somalis in general? Like i got really xenophobic and Islamophoic vibes from this convo we were having? For context, i am from African, amd Kenyan at that and have this white friend i met this year.

So this friend is back in her country and can't stop complaining and talking about how much the Somalis are terrorising her state. She sends updates and stuff on everything, and i really was just trying to understand the situation, until everything got so mean. Mind you this girl is a staunch Christian, like says Christianity saved her and stuff, but again, talking like this about another human in this way is kinda hypocritical? It just rubbed me the wrong way, and i refuse to have a white person talk about an African brother like that! Gosh!

Like i understand Kenyans have also not been on the best terms with Somalis and Muslims in general bc of the DUSIT D2 incident lakini i just feel like it's not okay to let a white person talk about an African brother like that aki. Literally our brothers wanaishi tu hapo juu bana, it's just wrong to let a white person feel like they can put another African down in that way.

DISCLAIMER!!! I am not Christian nor Muslim but i understand basic compassion, human decency and kindness. This was the total opposite of everything i believe in and that i embody as a person.
