As far as I'm concerned western media has no problem being forwardly, candidly and outwardly racist towards Muslims and Arabs more broadly on a consistent basis. The majority of publications have no issue whatsoever with overtly or implicitly stating that actions taken by Arab people are either "terrorism" or adjacent to it, and that there is no perspective from which they are justifiable. There isn't a single thing that these people can do other than graciously licking the boots of the west in direct opposition to their own material interests that will be seen as anything other that terrorism or subversion. The inherent white supremacist nature of liberalism is the backbone of their ability to perpetuate this bullshit, I think.

To the media, the Islamophobia has no context, just Muslims being angry, and unfortunately most Americans Democrats and Republican politicians alike sell that narrative, partly because of basic Racism, partly because of their need to support Raytheon and Lockheed-Martin to make more money for themselves. And once you have all the politicians lined up on that one point, the vast majority of the US voter base will support genocide.

I love how we're already immediately back to western media not caring about Muslims (at best) so soon after they pretended so hard to care about Muslims in China lol
