I recall one rabidly Islamophobic woman who argued vigorously for a tactical nuclear strike against Tehran. She didn't care at all how many completely innocent people would be murdered by a strike like that, and didn't seem to feel that there were any innocent Muslims. None of the forum's atheists stepped in to disagree with her. They gave her posts lots of kudos.
Since then, Trump has been openly and rabidly Islamophobic. My guess is that the people who were giving kudos to that rabidly Islamophobic woman who wanted to nuke Iran don't remember doing that. They have conveniently forgotten their own Islamophobic rants. Trump made atheists tolerant of Muslims.
Personally, I've never had an issue with Muslims. When I was a kid, I though it was bizarre that they did their worshippy stuff on Friday mornings (the Muslims of my acquaintance were virtually all Pakistanis) and I was a little jealous of that. Da used to trade with them on a regular basis. When their families came to the farm on business, we played with their kids. No huhu.
