The Iranian protesters being called Islamophobic is like when black people of America stand up for themselves and are called anti-white. Not all Muslims in Iran are against freedom and many of them are actually standing with the protesters the way not all white people in America are white. but the protest is against those who are using their religion as a tool to shut others down and beat them into submission. 

The people of Iran shouldn’t have to be Muslims and abide by Islamic rules to alive. 

There is also the fact that not all Muslim believe and abide by all the rules. Not all Muslim women wear hijabs so if this was really about Islam, those people would be safe, which is absolutely not the case. Religion is a very personal thing, and should not be forced upon people.

Hijab may be a sign of religious freedom in the west but in Iran, for most people Hijab has become a uniform of oppression. 

Many people are warping what these protests that are now happening in Iran stand for. Just know that the real reason they are happening is because the police of Iran Brutality murdered a 22 year old girl who was wearing the most normal version of the hijab that Iranian women wear.
