One of the weirdest far-right slurs I've seen flung at Muslims is "Moon Worshiper". Like, someone on AM Radio must have gone on a serious tear, because it comes up in reactionary church sermons and Facebook posts and the occasional Congressional exchange.
Something about having even a casual association with extraterrestrial bodies really sets Christian Conservatives off.
That is kinda weird, but I don't think it's that much weirder than some random wannabe slur with "cross" in it.
Those morons just have seen the symbols of Islam and don't know what they symbolise or where they come from, or that they in fact aren't the objects of worship.
