the term islamophobia has been (very dishonestly) cross-linked to both the people _and the religion

The same can be said for Judaism and anti-semitism yet people criticize Jews and Judaism all the time. I really don't think that's the reason.

As the person below you points out, the majority of the time someone criticizes Islam they're painting with a very broad brush, typically in a bigoted way talking about something they clearly don't understand. If you pick specifics that actually make sense like that person's example of entrances for women being shitty, then that's fine.

As with anything it's about how you approach the subject. Bill Maher criticizes Islam all the damn time and he hasn't been cancelled yet, in fact his show has been running for 20 years. The idea that you can't criticize Islam is bunk.
