I see these groups saying that if this was an Islamic terror attack, all Muslims would be demonised. This is a false equivalence. Islam is not a race, it's a set of (really bad) ideas. ISIS read and refer to the same texts as moderate muslims. Bad ideas can be criticised. Most importantly though, Muslims can be any colour. Just as communists, Christians and fascists can be.

However, Muslims are treated like a race nowadays, and for even many Muslims themselves, it's more of an identity. Many people that call themselves Muslims aren't even practising the religion, but call themselves that because of their family background, or something to that effect.
