How many more Democrats have the stupid headed view that believing in the religion of Islam is a race? That's about as stupid at it gets. There is no Muslim race of people. Seriously.

As an Arab (or Persian)? Yes, if you try to make them look darker skinned than they are, swarthy-complexioned, etc.
Putting them in the garb used by theocratic overlords and those who are forced to dress as those ruled by theocratic overlords like those of Iran? No. It might be sectarian, but not racist.
Let's say you Photoshop a politician or famous person in traditional Middle Eastern / Muslim clothing, say a woman photoshopped to look like she is wearing a hijab or a man photoshopped to look like he is wearing a dishdasha, in an effort to insult them. Do you think that is racist / bigoted?

I think the point is that its bigoted to think that portraying someone as Arab or just Muslim is an insult. We would obviously see photoshopping a yamaka on someone in an effort to insult them as very bigoted.
You're obviously referring to this:
Which is painting them as Iranian sympathizers specifically. It is no different from putting Republicans in Nazi uniforms or, more recently, in front of Russian flags, etc.
Bigoted? Yes. Racist? No
Its obviously bigoted yes. However, if you are portraying them as Arab as an insult its racist as well.
Yeah, make the world a better place by getting the hatred and bigotry termed correctly for crying out loud.
So an Iranian in a turban is the same as a Nazi? A woman in a hijab is the same as Nazi? It would be more comparable had they simply been portrayed in front of an Iranian flag.
Politicians are fair game for the most part.
If you photoshop black people, and it's racist, someone will call you out for it. Let's not be backwards.
But you're ok with the bigoted part of it. Good to know.

Obviously you are "ok with it" in your message anyway.

Those Democrats should be put on trial for treason and hung.
