Islam affects all Arabs/anyone from a muslim majority country

I always say that Islam affects all Arabs or everyone who is from a majority Muslim country. Mia Khalifa is a half Lebanese/half white Christian & she’s very hated by the Muslim community. “Oh she did porn in hijab” okay so have a bunch of other women? Who also most likely comes from a Christian background. So why does she get singled out? Is it because she’s Arab or is it because she’s from a country with a huge Muslim population? Why is she held to a different standard than a full white woman who’s done porn wearing hijab? There are Arab Muslim men like Gattouz who aren’t hiding the fact that he’s Muslim, he’s out here doing porn and no one has shamed him, no where near as much as Mia Khalifa. If anything, he’s praised and no one shames him at all. I also guarantee you the day when he decides to stop doing porn and “repents” everyone will be like “don’t mention his sins, he’s trying to be better and he came back to Islam”.

We could argue that she was the first well arab known pornstar to go viral, sure. But why is she in particular still ostracized? I’m not sure if she’s done anything else that was cancel worthy, I don’t really keep up with her. Is it because she’s a woman, an Arab woman? Why do we carry the burden of representing Islam, even the ones who aren’t even Muslim to begin with?

There are a lot worse things someone could do outside of porn. Hell, we have Muslim men in the Epstein files. The Muslim community is such a joke because Mia Khalifa is more known for her “shameful” acts than literal pedos. I wanted to let my thoughts about this out. I don’t like the porn industry btw, I’m just pointing out how misogynistic the community is and how Islam affects us all in different ways. I have more I wanna discuss but i’m getting sleepy writing this. Might add some more to this thought later.
