Previously in the "Islamophobia vs Criticism" post, I detailed the definition of what Islamophobia is. Since then, I have improved upon this definition. Here is what I now think is the definition of Islamophobia:
Islamophobia - Islamophobia is an irrational hatred of and an obsession with Islam and Muslims. Islamophobes often make massive generalizations of Muslims and Islam, demonize Muslims and Islam making them as inhuman as possible, and often advocate for oppressive and hostile policies towards Muslims and Islam. Islamophobes often have very little if not, no knowledge on Islam, Muslims, the Quran, the Middle East, and Middle Eastern politics. Therefore, in order to compensate, Islamophobes use news articles and other related media that has Muslims doing bad things and tries to show this as proof that Muslims and Islam are horrible. They also regurgeatate many memes and myths that are spread in anti-Islamic communities despite being proven false. Islamophobes also often have a fascination with the Middle Ages particularly during Charlemagne's era and try to connect past with the present trying to find similarities between them.
Islamophobes are often conservatives, neo-conservatives, far-right extremists, alt-rightists, Neoreactionaires, fascists, white nationalists, nationalists, racists, and New Atheists.
