How do you respond to these reactionary questions? (lemmygrad.ml)

When reactionaries say: "Why do we always have to put ourselves and our cultures last by not serving pork in school canteens because of muslims or allowing underage girls to wear a hijab in school, to let their families oppress them? Why do we let people immigrants live off our government benefits when they haven't paid a single euro in taxes before they came here?"

How do you respond to it? I honestly don't know because these thoughts are so stupid they never even cross my mind so I never thought about it much.

“Why do we always have to put ourselves and our cultures last by not serving pork in school canteens because of muslims

Last i checked "our" culture did not consist of eating pork. Do you, per chance, also have a problem with vegetarians?

allowing underage girls to wear a hijab in school

Why should this be a problem? Are you for mandatory school uniforms and dress codes? It does not affect anyone by themselves, so why do you care?

to let their families oppress them?

Your evidence for this is what exactly?

Why do we let people immigrants live off our government benefits when they haven’t paid a single euro in taxes before they came here?

Universal human rights. Do you have a problem with human rights?

I think it would be pretty interesting to hear their reasons. Not because you'll get to hear something profound, but because get something to work with instead of vague one liners.
