    The problem I see is not that Islamophobes are against the religion of Islam. They’re mostly just against brown people and use “Islam is a religion of hate” as an excuse to justify their racism. Furthermore, most Islamophobes “hate” Islam for the same reasons the love Christianity, they just don’t like that brown people have been able to do what they haven’t - suppress an entire population through the use of their religion, subjugating and oppressing women, LGBTQ+, other races, and non-believers. It’s not that most of them have any actual problems with what hard-right Islam does, they just don’t like that those brown (enter slur of choice)s are the ones doing it instead of them.
