I truly despise Islamic extremists, day after day I hear about more killing by their hand in the media, and I can hardly call it a propaganda, as there were actual cold-blooded murders there. It's also very hard not to generalize these acts to the whole Muslim nations, as we (or at least I) hear basically nothing good about them, basically all news are bad news. And I don't know anybody from their countries or believing in mentioned religion.
Therefore, I think Nep had basically no intention of being actually racist or anything, but rather made a mistake of not correctly nailing the group he despises. He was anti-religious (in terms of hating Islam faith), yes, but thinking of him as a racist is just a wrong interpretation of his words, not looking at the context of what he said.
Finally, I think Islam (religion) is, as every other religion which promotes violence or harmfully illogical actions, bad. Yet I don't have a grudge against Islam people unless they do harm to other people. Based on what I learned about their culture, though, I think it [their culture] favors brain-wash and extremist behavior, despite what Muslim/Islamic officials say in media.
