Discrimination, prejudice, or hatred against Muslims.
For example, harassing a woman because she's wearing a hijab; treating people unfairly simply because they have an Islamic name; forcing Muslims to eat pork or drink beer.
The term 'Islamophobia' originated in the 1970s, and was created with the intention of using liberal values to protect Islam from any kind of criticism. When Iranians, Ex-Muslims, people who grew up in Muslim-majority countries try to speak out about their Islamotrauma, they were very often silenced by this term.
Islam is a set of specific ideas based on scripture. People should be able to criticize it. Freedom of expression is a human right. Questioning and criticizing ideologies is crucial for societal progression.
You see, the person who coined the term 'Islamophobia' cared about protecting Islam more than protecting Muslim. That person is wrong. When it comes to people and ideas, people should always come first. Use anti-Muslim bigotry or Muslimophobia or Muslimphobia instead of Islamophobia.

"The issue with the modern day use of Islamophobia is that people conflate criticism of Islam with anti-Muslim bigotry."
"We absolutely need to acknowledge that anti-Muslim bigotry exists."
"Anti-Muslim bigotry is disgusting."
"Criticizing Islam is not anti-Muslim bigotry."

:verb:-comitting the act of-
:noun:-reffering to the act of-
A prejudiced butt-fucking, administered usually by men of lower brain function, societal status, and hygiene (mostly rednecks, hillbillies, and residents of low lying swampy regions).
Sodomystic Bigotry occurs when said lower-lifeforms lose their grip on reality, usually fueled by knowing their own sad disposition, mixed with crack and moonshine.

"My friend needs to leave the country. He is really sad"
"Why does he need to leave?"
"Girl in day care told him, he has really dark, like black skin, to go back to his country... where is that?"
Children are not born to bigotry but learn through generationally transmitted bigotry.

Not expecting disadvantaged people or minorities to meet the same standard of behaviour or achievement set for most people. It is called "soft bigotry" because it is a more subtle and subconscious form of prejudice.
"I will confront another form of bias: the soft bigotry of low expectations.
Several months ago I visited Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas, where African-Americans confronted injustice and white Americans confronted their conscience. In 43 years, we have come so far in opening the doors of our schools. But today we have a challenge of our own. While all can enter our schools, many--too many, are not learning there.
There's a tremendous gap of achievement between rich and poor, white and minority. This, too, leaves a divided society.
And whatever the causes, the effect is discrimination.
My friend Phyllis Hunter (ph), of Houston, Texas, calls reading the new civil right. Equality in our country will remain a distant dream until every child, of every background, learns so that he or she may strive and rise in this world. No child in America should be segregated by low expectations, imprisoned by illiteracy, abandoned to frustration and the darkness of self-doubt."
- George W. Bush, speech before the NAACP (2000).

Very mis-defined word actually, bigotry is not a form of racial discrimination rather someone who feels that their views are superior to that of another.
example: A Christian who hates the Jews

Bigotry: The practice of intolerance
Intolerance: To force one's opinions on another. To not tolerate another view/practice/race/ideology/religion - To force others to conform to one's own view on this.
1) Intolerance refers not to disagreeing with someone, nor disliking someone (regardless of the reason therefore), but to attempting to force one's won opinions belief on them.
2) The classic BS argument provided in defense of bigotry is that not tolerating the intolerance is, in itself, intolerance.
It is very easy to distinguish which is bigotry and which a defense against bigotry by asking the question: In the absence of anyone using any force against the other, what would the outcome be?"

1) Bob: "I think I should be allowed be gay/trans/the owner of an assault weapon/not part of the military through drafting/a meat eater/a vegan/. Furthermore I believe I have the right to associate with whom I please, both personally and professionally."
Bill: "You shouldn't, seeing as I hold a different view., and my will over you must be absolute. And I have a small peepee for which I seek to compensate"
Bob: "Well, we can agree to disagree then, except on the size of your genitals. "
Bill: "No. I intend to agitate for my opinions regarding what you may and may not do to be law, and your not doing so must be punished by being locked in a cage for many years.
Bob: "Get fucked Bill, You're a bigot."
2) Bill: "Screw you hillbilly/queer/meat-murderer/tree-hugger/gun-toter/unpatriotic traitor. Your intolerance regarding the enforcement of my views on you is intolerance, so YOU'RE the bigot!"
Bob: "Bigotry is the use of force to force your view on someone else. In the absence of any force being used by anyone in the situations above, I would have sex with whoever I want and consents to it, eat what I want, believe what I want, buy whatever firearms I want and stay out of wars that don't concern me if I want. Thus I have practiced no bigotry as I have not used force in any way.
Bill: "Racist sexist fascist faggot hetero-normative patriarchal gynocentric libtard conservitard!!
