@untilnow It’s not that faith alone sustains you - you still have to eat and drink. It’s to show you obey God and there are more important things than fleeting desires. If you are a practicing Muslim it’s also not that much of a sacrifice I do it every year and I find it quite easy. It’s not brainwashing if someone chooses to do it. Even if someone is choosing to do something you don’t like.
But if you’re not Muslim I can imagine it would be annoying of course.
As far as the law goes that’s messed up-there’s many reasons even within the religion people shouldn’t be fasting and just making it illegal to eat and drink outside as if everyone was supposed to be fasting all the time is stupid.
That said I hope you leave that country soon. They certainly don’t need people there that look down on them “helping” them.
