"How dare muslims tell women what to wear, we want to be the ones who tell them what to wear."
Pretty much my thoughts. Who the hell is gate keeping a public beach? Europeans are whacked out. Banning burkinis was beyond moronic, and now this?
I don't think this is about "Europeans" so much as it's about ignorance.
Europeans actually working in the space of migrant women's human rights have pointed out that mainstream society imposing restrictions on their clothes just makes it harder for them to participate in social spaces and be part of the wider society.
Europeans have every right to fight a totalitarian ideology that is actively trying to destroy their chore values. Also, a majority of Muslims don't wear burkinis.
This is not how you do that.
Being authoritarian about other people's clothing is not a modern European core value.
That's why I am not advocating for a ban, simply pointing that it is a tool to spread a totalitarian ideoligy
It's different things to different people. Banning it is authoritarian.
Death to Western chores! Allah Akbar
The one Islamic tenet I can get behind. No more washing dishes! Death to the act of taking out the trash!
Not sure if you are joking, not sure if people who were run over in Nice or blown up in Madrid would find it funny either
Which I will do by blocking you for that piece of right-wing totalitarian idiological propaganda bullshit...
The value of chores shall not be diminished! Those dishes are going to be sparkeling!
