Islamophobia is at root, an attempt to minimize the importance of the individual and maximize the importance of the group. It is an endeavor that ignores that individuals are undeniably real. Groups, on the other hand, are assertions of opinion.
Islamophobia is an otiose word which doesn't deserve definition. Hatred of Muslims is unequivocally reprehensible, as is hatred of any group of people such as gay people or members of a race. Hatred of Islam, on the other hand is easily justified, as is hatred of any other religion or obnoxious ideology. Muslims themselves are the main victims of Islam.
