“Islamophobia” is not real because “phobia” implies it to be irrational when Islam is an idea and belief which is perfectly valid to oppose, not part of an immutable characteristic like racism, homophobia, and transphobia
nearly all islamophobes hate it because they hate the people, they often be mad about muslim immigrants in their country or believe the stereotypes and hate islam. they rarely ever hate on the belief itself
I'm talking from personal experience. most of the islamophobia I saw on instagram came from "Muslims are terrorists/rapists etc." also the way I'm representing them now is actually be a drawback for me as I'm implying my own people are terrorists or rapists
Look at the shit happening in western europe like uk now getting 1 million migrants a year from north africa and the middle east while simultaneously having its sexual assaults increase heavily
No I’m saying that is a more legitimate reason why someone would be “islamophobic”
And that they aren’t just randomly accusing muslims of being rapists with no evidence behind it
you completely missed my point didn't you? I said islamophobia comes from them hating on the people and not the belief itself. what you said just supports it
