I had a Bosnian muslim friend in HS and middle school. He was hilarious and really smart(but very immature when he wanted to be, which was often lol). He was not a communist but being Balkan, he was anti-US military, anti-interventionist, anti-Imperialist. He also did really really immature stuff at times, but he was a kid. Example, in Middle school, we held a pretend vote for president in our Social Studies class and the students could sorta endorse a candidate and try to convince students why you like them or whatever. I supported Bernie and he supported Trump. I asked him why, he wasn’t a Republican, he said it was funny af to him that he, a muslim, would support Trump while the news was talking about the muslim ban, I didn’t think it was funny particularly, it was kinda fucked up, but he was a troll before all else and tbh knowing him he’d never cast a vote in his life. Other than that, I have a muslim manager and she’s undoubtedly the nicest manager I’ve ever met. Other than that, most of the muslims I know aren’t very religious and barely identify as muslim, they see themselves as Arab before anything else
