    Again with the arguement about women’s rights for women who represent a religion that doens’t believe in women’s rights. In fact, the more women in a country that have the ‘right’ to wear Muslim head coverings, the more likely they do not have the right not to wear them or any other human rights for that matter. Which may be why ‘Western’ women are against those religious symbols in countries that have at least some progress on women’s rights. I would rather some women cannot wear head coverings than for all women to become citizens without any rights like they are in many Muslim countries. I would ban each and every religious symbol in public places. Almost every war on the planet was/is propagated by using religion to recruit its supporters and soldiers.

      How about the state not forcing a dresscode at all?

      In fact, the more women in a country that have the ‘right’ to wear Muslim head coverings, the more likely they do not have the right not to wear them or any other human rights for that matte

      Forcing a dresscode on women is human rights. You heard it here first folks

      Almost every war on the planet was/is propagated by using religion to recruit its supporters and soldiers.

      What no theory does to a mf

      Jesus Christ do y’all come out of the woodwork for this. Blathering on about “great replacement” type shit, literally indistinguishable from the type of stuff you’d see on Fox News.

      In fact, if you educated your racist ass about actual facts and history, there have been plenty of progressive Islamic societies, they just tended to get overthrown by the CIA. The more fundamentalist tendencies were promoted as more reliably anti-communist.

      The notion that Western societies are in any danger whatsoever of turning to Islamic extremism is completely, laughably absurd, a racist, far-right conspiracy theory. The idea that women dressing a certain way would cause that is on par with people who say that gay people cause hurricanes.

      These threads have shown that the whole fediverse needs to get way more ban-happy. Go back to Reddit with that shit, you are not welcome here.
