Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

“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?

Let’s maybe not call it the final solution.
It’s apt. Apt!
Pfft, they stole that from Project 2025, Appendix F
For the Taliban, women are sexual slaves whose sole purpose is to be baby making machines: they're not human beings.

What a backward society. Under that thinking, a post menopausal woman would be useless.
Luckily we here in America have much more encouraging and progressive viewpoints from people like our VP nominee Vance who said the purpose of "postmenopausal females" is to provide backup childcare.

What a fuckin weirdo
Don't forget that they have to cook and clean as well.
So exactly JD Vance's stand

Project 2025
Never ask about:
A man - his wage
A woman - her age
A talib - what they do to a boy aged 5-12

Why are they so afraid of women?
Who would be the servants and sexual submissives if women were free to do as they pleased?

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.

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."
Isn't beards required because a smooth faced man might cause impure thoughts?
I don't know about you guys but even as a straigh dude, especially glorious beards can also have me staring and acting unwise...
I say ban all beards.
As another straight dude, I don't know what you're talking about. I happen to have unrelated photos at the ready below.

Once, I talked with a Muslim, and I said that they are afraid of women. He told me that they aren't afraid of women; they respect them so much that they have to cover them and do all these kinds of things
Obviously. How else would they protect them from their uncontrollable male urges?
/S in case anyone gets confused...
"We protect them like diamonds!"
"So you protect them like objects?"
Religionheads are the worst
Well I'm happy a war was fought to liberate them and bring them the joys of deMoCRacy and cheap beer
The war in Afghanistan was lost the moment Bush switched gears to invade Iraq.
He pulled resources out that never went back, and then Obama did the same to fight ISIL. And then Trump pulled even more out just because.
As the years went on, more of the security was offloaded to a corrupt interm government that never quite managed to become self sufficient.
When Trump did his pull out, he got Congress to pull funding. That funding was all that wa keeping the Afghani military going.
Then Biden had to finish the pull out, and he did not stick the landing.
Also bonus fun fact. The Taliban is very likely going to start the world's first Water War. They've been damming and diverting rivers that their neighbors rely on.

Man I can't believe they've done it. Who saw this coming
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.
Should not be a shock to anyone.
This is taking victim blaming women for the mens' reactions to their existence to a new level of so stupid it won't work and will actually have the opposite effect in that people are MORE frustrated, sexually or otherwise.
