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

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.

The important part of the word is 'phobia'.

Why do you think Iran said all that? It's their plan. QED.

Criticism of the Israel government - not anti-Semitic
Calling for Israel not to exist - anti-Semitic
It’s very simple.

Unconscious bias?

Re: Appeasement
Do any other religious groups currently have a memorial?
