Sorry but if you don't see how that comparison is beyond not ok somethings wrong here. Which isn't to say you can't feel like that bc that's just the natural result of bad experiences.
Easily half the turkish immigrants I've interacted with were people begging or threatening me on the street, that doesn't mean I assume turkish immigrants are assholes. Because I know it's both selection bias (most normal ppl just mind their business and don't randomly talk to you, immigrants are poorer on avg so there are more homeless immigrants). And even if 95% were pieces of shit I'd still at most be more careful, but not somehow try to include all the ones that aren't a problem in the group that I'm complaining about.
You don't understand pounding down vs punching up.
