It’s stunning what a racist cesspit Reddit has become within these large communities.

I thought islam was a religion. Is it also a race, like Judaism?

Technically no, but some people hate all Arabs for the actions of a few (not all, not even close) Muslims.

Those who choose not to practice Islam but who are perceived as Muslim are subjected to discrimination.

Yeah I get that but the OP’s comment in the screenshot is saying the claim that Islam is incompatible with west is a racist statement. Maybe it could be prejudiced or bigoted but I don’t think it’s racism. There are white American Muslims and there are Arab Christians

Depends on context, but often Islamophobia is disguised as criticism of Islam. To your original point, Judaism is not a racial group (there are European, Arab and Black Jews) but anti-semitism is regarded as a form of racism, because the discrimination is applied whether the person is practicing or not. Same applies with Islamophobia.

Post 9/11 Islamophobia never really went away, and this conflict has only given it an outlet.
