I realize that it was indeed very indirect, but that is because Islamophobia is only a symptom, not the disease. To cure the world of Islamophobia, racism other expressions of hatred towards other people, or groups of people, we need to cure the disease instead of treating the symptoms. What good is it to treat an ache in your body with pain killers when the cause of that pain is a cancerous growth. If you cure the cancer, the pain will go away as well, and an added benefit is that the cancer will not be able to spread.

Islamophobia is the symptom, but hate is the cancer. Let us cure society of this cancer, before it causes us more harm.

Please forgive me if this comes off as insensitive. I am not trying to diminish the effect that Islamophobia has.
