GOP - “Write that down! WRITE THAT DOWN!”
“Wait… you just pass a law and women can’t talk? Call the Heritage Foundation and the Federalist Society. We have the final solution.”
Does the law also apply to Marjorie Taylor-Greene?
Is there a way to make it only apply to Marjorie Taylore-Greene?
I feel like the Taliban rule workshopping is something like, “Okay, everyone write down ANYthing that get you off or arouses you. Alright, let’s see… ‘women’s feet,’ yeah, banned. ‘Clothes,’ okay banned. ‘Women singing.’ Y’all some fucked up, but also banned.”
They banned CLOTHES? >.>
Isn’t beards required because a smooth faced man might cause impure thoughts?
What often grates on me is the “We never should have left Afghanistan! Look at what they’re doing to women!!” folks abutting the “We need to respect their customs. These theocratic dictatorships are just like that and there’s nothing we can do” folks who turn a blind eye to all our allies on the Saudi Peninsula, the African coast, and the Indian subcontinent get up to.
You need both in order to execute a new campaign of regime change, because arms and troops have to flow through friendly bases in India or Pakistan to get to Afghanistan. But the end policy only ever seems to be “we permit you to be horrible, so long as you’re committing these horrors on our team”.
Would love for a genuine trans-national feminist movement. But when feminism is a dead letter in our friends in Japan, Poland, and Israel, how the hell is it supposed to penetrate to our enemies in Bad Korea, Afghanistan, and Cuba?

The fuck
We don’t need to respect their customs. We need to respect their people, including their people’s need for emotional healthy relationships which are often in conflict with elements in their cultures that only feel entitled to dominate.
We don’t need to respect their customs.
We do if we want to move military personal through their territory without resistance.
Back when Americans were occupying Afghanistan, we had a seemingly unlimited tolerance for sexual abuse of minors and narco trafficking in the state. We needed the warlords to secure territory and the drug lords to underpin the local economy, in order to contain reactionary religious ideology.
Only after we left did we rediscover our duty to Afghan civilians.
people’s need for emotional healthy relationships which are often in conflict with elements in their cultures that only feel entitled to dominate
I don’t know how else you describe detonating the world’s largest fuel bomb over Nangarhar Province, if you’re not describing it as “entitlement to dominate”.
We weren’t in Afghanistan handing out hugs and flowers. We were killing dissidents en mass in order to suppress revolt.
Why are they so afraid of women?
Who would be the servants and sexual submissives if women were free to do as they pleased?
Power.
Conservative Sunni Islam’s attitude towards women basically boils down to men needing to see as little as possible of them, lest they become uncontrollably rapey. Shia are a little bit less misogynistic, and Sufi are significantly less so.

I find that so utterly bizarre, like, you can’t control your sexual impulses like a normal person does unless every woman in your field of vision is dressed like a Halloween ghost?
It’s the woman’s fault, obviously!
Edit: also, your comment is ironic given your username. One of the GOAT sexual deviants…
Sunni Islam does not prescribe women being fully veiled nor does it forbid schooling. The Taliban are following tribalism not Islam.
I used “conservative” for a reason. Sunni men writ large consider the hijab mandatory, but not face coverings.
Probably because many local women would outright reject the Taliban, as partners and as masters, if they had a say. Educated women especially would run circles around them.
Religionheads are the worst
For the Taliban, women are sexual slaves whose sole purpose is to be baby making machines: they’re not human beings.
No they are extremely human. Human beings are completely capable of this complete dominance of each other. Dont ever dehumanize these atrocities. It paints a picture that we didn’t do it. We did.
I don’t think they were calling the Taliban less than human. Rather commenting on how the Talibam view women as less than human.
Yes. I’m talking about the Talibans’ sick and perverse mind. The Talibans do not view women as human beings.
I think they meant “the Taliban doesn’t consider women to be humans”
Its explaining that dehumanization is how this shit happens
Now that I drank some coffee, yeah I can see that was probably the intention <.<
Same as Iran now.
Can you believe it, MAGA has more in common with the Taliban and Russian neo-nazis than being American? At least, their platform reflects an obvious roadmap to these destinations.
Have these guys found Narnia yet? Because shit like this makes it seem like they’re deep in the closet.
Yes, we know, radical Islam forbids joy of any kind. What a miserable existence.
