The face cover ban is not just a French thing. Plenty of countries have such bans at this point.
Also neither that nor their Muhammad cartoons make them worse than the country with a biannual debate about whether to reintroduce serfdom
British politician and media figures have a running conversation about how the poors are too uppity, and invariably this involves talks of making things more shit while the British public are supposed to be grateful. Which the British public lap up and vote for aristocratic psychos who aren't quite sure whether the poor should get the vote and whether minorities are people.
I choose to summarise this as "Biannual debate for serfdom"
The French light shit on fire if someone tries to make gas more expensive.
France is better.
What I'm getting is that you're American and trying to score points by denouncing islanophobia. Which, cool.
However the Muhammad cartoons are fine, that's not the bad part. That's, if anything, a distraction from real islamophobia within Europe. There are countries trying to build camps, there are others trying to ban Arabic being used in religious rituals, others are just trying to ban Arabic period.
In the UK half the country went spare st the prospect of a Muslim politician, the prime minister openly disparages Muslim women, and gushes over far right Hindu nationalists.
giving a shit about marginalised people is scoring points now
the Muhammad cartoons are fine
no they aren't
There are countries trying to build camps
france being one of them
In the UK half the country went spare st the prospect of a Muslim politician
half is a big overstatement
the prime minister openly disparages Muslim women
of course he does, he's a tory, he's also incredibly racist and homophobic, but even he hasn't pushed to ban religious dress or project islamophobic shit all over government buildings
they banned the niqab and are cartoonishly (pun intended) islamophobic

But not anywhere near the worst.

blatant islamophobic cartoons projected on government buildings and specifically banning islamic religious dress makes them the worst
and also hate muslims
