I’m actually more concerned about the women’s rights stuff than I would otherwise be specifically because it has no obvious connection to its actions in the West Bank.
This is really worrying to read
America, Israel, Afghanistan
Countries that are just going backwards so fast, religious craziness taking over and the silent majority are letting it happen.
Where are we going to be in another few decades? Bringing back slavery and the inquisition?
Time for the silent majority to get off it’s ass, then.
I remember when “the silent majority” were the ultra conservative and religious nutjobs who helped bring Reagan to power.
I don’t know, but I don’t think they were the majority and they certainly weren’t being very quiet, let alone silent. Now, of course, we can hardly hear ourselves think for all the racket they make.
I’m just hoping that the actual majority is at least mildly progressive so we can keep things moving forward. And it is definitely time for that progressive majority, if it exists, to stop being silent. Part of having free speech is the burden of speaking up and flooding the public square with good and honorable speech.
Funny enough, it’s the Silent Majority that support it.
That’s what worries me.
Goodness what an appalling thing to read. I grew up catholic (I haven’t been religious for more than a decade already) and still have to shake my head about the ban women face there to even become clergywomen.
The idea that there should be segregation based on sex is just so fundamentally weird to me especially in the example of boarding public transit.
I do hope this worrying trend is circumvented because it’s become abundantly clear in present times that the moment rights/laws are lost, a long battle is needed to regain them.
Like is this ultraconservative trend so appealing because people feel the past was SOMEHOW more appealing than the current times? I totally do not get it but thank you for sharing!

Never give religious people power, they fuck things up.
