His comments were, apparently ;

Please explain to me how these are "Islamophobic" :confused:

This article explains why. There are obviously those who will disagree.

Re: Appeasement

It does not explain why at all.

Quote:

Islamophobia is a fear, prejudice and hatred of Muslims that leads to provocation, hostility and intolerance by means of threatening, harassment, abuse, incitement and intimidation of Muslims and non-Muslims, both in the online and offline world.

Those quotes do not do any of these things, seems more like another case of people just making stuff when they dont like a view.
The practice these days, when people disagree, seems to be they just resort to labels like [something]ic, or [something]obia, or [something]ist. :rolleyes:

We have a fair number of forum members who could be labelled 'conservatobic', or 'brexitist' .. :angel:

Multiple definitions of Islamophobia abound as the article details. As we've seen from some of the protests against the situation in Gaza, some phrases are seen as anti-Semitic by some and not by others.

Are labels a 2024 thing? I suspect they've always been with us.

Yes, a five year old edited/clipped video from the Iranian State propaganda channel proves the Great Replacement Theory…

A wonderful counterpoint to the position where criticising Israel *is* anti-Semitic :)

Criticism of the Israel government - not anti-Semitic

Calling for Israel not to exist - anti-Semitic

It’s very simple.
