In my experience many of the most strident critics of hair coverings refuse to see the similarity to anti-nudity laws, especially nipple covering which is specific to women.

I mean I think the downvotes speak to the fact that the average person is not willing to admit the harms that our own ideas of modesty cause.

My BS? This is exactly what I’m talking about. Western governments need to be shamed too.

I agree but I wish people would act this way towards western modesty laws as well.

Probably trying to make an example out of her. There has been significant public resistance to the hair covering laws in recent years and the government has made various attempts to bring women back under control. But as with all tyrannical governments, if enough people resist, they simply can’t go after everyone.

Maybe you should disbelieve. Studies show 82% of unsourced facts shared online were false.

The worst part about him being sick is you know as soon as he kicks the bucket they’ll find someone even worse to replace him.

Very good news. Insane that mass surveillance traditionally had bipartisan support. Could that be starting to change?

I mean it kinda is but you’re right that any increases are pretty inconveniently timed.

I can’t wait for republicans to announce that Trump invented the hamburger.

Misleading clickbait title but still interesting article. I blame the editor.

Yeah I feel like people are just upvoting the headline here. If they read what it actually meant they might not like it so much.

Good point, you should resign the presidency and focus on your mayoral campaign.

Normal oral sex does not damage your voice or throat. Maybe if you’re doing really rough deep throat or something but most people don’t enjoy that anyway.

Genocide lite is obviously preferable to genocide. Not that the state has much power over foreign affairs anyway.

You can see the consequences of your failure to acknowledge this in Lebanon and Iran, if you care to look.

Just because you’re to the left of the candidates (if you really are, I feel like a lot of larpers also make these kinds of comments) does not mean the election does not have consequences. There are significant differences between fascists, liberals, and progressives.

Seems like every state does it.

In an ideal world I agree with you, I just feel it will be easier to get people more comfortable with the existing architecture than to rebuild everything. And until one of those things happens, people will continue to be excluded from public bathrooms.

Frankly the best option that seems to be catching on right now is having private, gender-neutral bathrooms for those who desire them so that not everything needs to be rebuilt.

OK, well, I’m sorry that happened but given that it’s never happened to me nor anyone I know personally it can’t be particularly common.

I also don’t really care if people see me in the bathroom but I understand most people feel differently.

They could be for everyone already is my point. But apparently my opinion is in the minority here.

The issue is if we’re requiring every bathroom in the country to be upgraded before we accept everyone using them, that’s going to cause delays. And justice delayed is justice denied.
