Even the most optimistic global analysts concede that overall anti-Muslim sentiment within European societies has now normalized to the point where millions of young Muslims have been relegated to second-class citizenry. This is even true for millions of European Muslims who are born in the EU.

XREF: Connects to broader discussions of structural discrimination against minority groups in Western democracies, and to data on Muslim integration in Europe.
