Islamophobia: The Left Has It Backwards

The left — the progressive, socialist, communist, God-hating, atheistic left — gets just about everything either wrong or backwards, from cancel culture to the 1619 Project to racism to the environment to religion to family matters to abortion and pretty much everything else imaginable. If the left advocates any position on any subject, you're safe betting the rent money that the left got it wrong.

But where leftists go above and beyond the call of duty to put their foot in their mouth is on the subject of so-called Islamophobia.

If anyone dares to criticize Muslims for their violence, misogyny, antisemitism, intolerance, religiously sanctioned lies, and selfish arrogance, the left rushes to the microphones, keyboards, TikTok, etc. to sympathize with the poor mistreated Muslims who practice a "religion of peace" and commiserate with them on how awful it is to be subjected to the horrors of Islamophobia. It's stomach-turning at best, malicious at worst.

Islamophobia is an irrational racist hatred of Muslims and their "peaceful" religion. Islam is a religion, not a race, but we'll leave that aside for now. To be an Islamophobe these days is to be guilty of hating Muslims for no good reason. So says the left.

Islamomisia is a better word. A REVULSION of things islamic.

Also goes for homophobia and transphobia. Who is afraid of these daises? Add “Misia” and it is a revulsion of them.
