Is Islamophobia racism?

[Apollo]

I'm noticing that a lot of stupid white people racialize Islam ever since the refugee crisis. Many of these idiotic whites genuinely think Muslims are some kind of race. Hating on Islam has become the new publicly tolerated way to vent one's racist believes in Western society. @AbdiJohnson since you like to promote all these Islamophobic white bigots, what do you think of this? Discuss.

Absolutely.

Muslims are the last group of people you can openly be bigoted against.

ask the Sikhs

We need to start shaming whites who make bigoted comments about Islam in public.

Because of my non-Arabic name and appearance they often think I'm not Muslim and joke around about Islam at times. We need to make them walk on eggshells when it comes to Islam like how white people don't dare to comment about Blacks or Jews in public.

In a moment of desperation, I called a white girl racist and she literally started crying

This is the level we need to reach.

We need to become strategic SJWs. Employ all their tactics. :siilaanyolaugh:

Islamophobia is a cover for racism, no doubt about that. Yes of course, Islam is not a religion and that Muslims can be of any race, but it's much more than that. The bulk of Muslims in the world are from three parts of the world: Africa, The Middle East and the Indian subcontinent. Those people make up at least 80% of Muslims, with the other 20% being orientals (East Asians) and white people (Chechns, Bosnians, Albanians, and converts).

So people who hate Arabs, blacks or the three nationalities of the Indian subcontinent, replace the race or ethnicity with the Muslim tag. And whenever they're caught out on their racism, they say, "but Islam is a religion not a race" and thus they have their prejudice covered.

It's a 1000 times worse with Germans and when you compare them to Nazis since they had people in their family who did that stuff. Oh boy.

That's probably why Erdogan called them Nazis

There is a giant overlap between racism and Islamophobia, especially in Europe, but even in America with Trump that overlap is now showing:

Honestly, if you were to replace the Muslim tag with an actual race or nationality that you find on headlines in newspapers, best be sure that paper would be closed down the next morning.

Nonsense. You only look Muslim if you wear traditional Islamic clothing. How is Islamophobia racism? It's an ideology. Can you be "racist" towards a socialist or a Buddhist?

Islamophobia and criticisms towards Islam will always be there just like there is criticism towards Judaism and capitalism.

Get real.

Using an analogy: if racism was a diagnosable disease then Islamophobic tendencies would be one of its strongest ascertainable variables scientists would use. Caveat: obviously, only applies to the West.

AbdiJohnson, you are in bed with the Nazis.

Cmon mate, that's bull and you know it.

Why is it that I have never been a victim of this so called Islamophobia? Not even a tease or joke was ever directed at me. I'm a Somali with a name many terrorists have. I never talk about religion in public either.

They look like the Taliban.

It's the non whites that are racist. The racist whites hide behind a screen so I'm OK with that
