Get the Islamophobia mug.The hatred of, or prejudice against moslems or the Islamic religion.
We should stop using the rather abstract term “Islamophobia” and replace it with the concrete and relatable “anti-moslem” in order to drive home the severity of “Islamophobic” bigotry affecting a rapidly growing demographic within Western societies.
Where the antisemite is by definition dangerous, a term like Islamophobe makes the moslem-hater seem rather timid, implying that he is not a source of danger but a victim, merely reacting to an exogenous bogeyman with the most human of emotions which all of us have experienced at some point in our lives: fear.
This brand of hierarchical discrimination, selective downplaying and semantic antics also characterises discourses of gender, sexuality and race: the man who hates women is not a women-hater but is allowed to dwell in the luxury of a lofty term such as “misogynist”; the gay-hater is sanitised as a “homophobe” and the racist whitewashed as a “xenophobe”, both monikers implying that there is some characteristic within homosexuals and foreigners that triggers legitimate fear in mainstream society, thus making the two somehow complicit in the crime of other people despising them.

Islamophobia is a form of racism mixed with cultural intolerance. Islamophobia targets markers of moslem identity. Evident in how perpetrators of Islamophobic hate crime disproportionately target visibly moslem women, in the same way that racism often targets people for the colour of their skin.

They will present references from unreliable, inauthentic sources while ignoring all the authentic references on the same subject which is not in line with their anti islamic agenda

Get the Islamophobia mug.A naive (and typically uneducated) person who has fallen prey to the media's anti-Muslim smear campaign waged by the elite in a calculated effort to dehumanize people sitting atop a geostrategic oil-rich land and thereby manufacture consent for imperial wars in the region. In other words, it is a useful idiot who can always be counted on to rally around the flag against the enemy du jour.
These sad, insecure people are not interested in discovering the truth. Indeed, the vast majority of them have never personally met a Muslim, nor have they made any attempt to educate themselves on Islam's rich history and culture. Instead, they are solely interested in feeling morally superior and will thus only seek out information that confirms their anti-Muslim beliefs whilst tuning out all facts and evidence to the contrary. Muslims simply provide an easy scapegoat on which they can pin their problems and project their personal flaws and wrongdoings.

Islamophobes will endlessly shriek about false rape allegations and then turn around and falsely accuse all Muslims of rape.
