The term 'ISLAM-O-PHOBIA'....
It is meant as both
a repudiation [of criticism], AND
as a frontal attack,
upon anyone who is seen, to be publicly critical of ISLAM [and/or critical of the vicious and intolerant behaviour of ISLAM's followers].
Dictionary;
repudiate = =
1 refuse to accept or be associated with.
2 deny the truth or validity of. Islamophobia is an extreme fear of and hostility toward Islam and Muslims. It often leads to hate speech and hate crimes, social and political discrimination, can be used to rationalize policies such as
mass surveillance, incarceration, and disenfranchisement, and can influence domestic and foreign policy.
Islamophobia does not include the rational criticism of Islam. However, it is Islamophobic for criticism of Islam to be generated for the sole purpose of advocating social and political measures that discriminate against and violate the rights of Muslims.
Like anti-Semitism, anti-Black racism, homophobia, and other prejudices, Islamophobia is often used to promote discriminatory policies that serve the interests of political actors.
Take it up with the Chinese Communists - such policies are implemented by them and their ilk. None of that happens in any Western country.
Discriminating against adherents of ideologies that advocate discrimination themselves (Islam, communism, fascism) is nothing like discrimination against characteristics that an individual cannot change, such as blackness. For you to conflate the two as if they were indistinguishable is stupid.
