I guess you missed my point. My point is that when there is something like a Muslim hate crime, there is a mass of people condemning it, and reminding people that not all Muslims are terrorists. It’s not “ok”, they don’t “get away” with it. It isn’t socially acceptable.
I see the opposite some times, where a group of people will be condemned or lumped into one category, and no one bothers to bring some perspective to the issue or remind people to be respectful of the differences. Stereotyping, white washing, generalizing, ridicule, and other things are perfectly fine with one issue - but if you tried to do the same thing on another issue you would get strung up.
