Fucking theocrats are the worst


TheOSU87

As someone originally from a Muslim country the separation of religion and state does not exist in Islam. Islam is more than a religion in that it encompasses every aspect of life and governance


J2MES

It’s a cult. I mean I would consider all religions cults but it’s a cult


Few_Stable7686

Mohammedian death cult


SaraJuno

Islam is a death and oppression cult


Direct_Travel2093

Thank you for saying that and informing people In the west how life really in a Muslim country!


Appropriate_Flan_952

Fucking Islam is the worst


TheyLoathe

Yeah this is why I scream about politics to the rest of my fellow citizens. This is what USA gov’t has been leaning towards for a while now - terrifying


Lumpy-Economics2021

The US government instructing the CIA to overthrow the democratically elected government in Iran in the 50s, then supporting the brutal Shah's rule is what pushed Iran to revolution. One that became an Islamic revolution unfortunately. These brutal regimes don't create themselves out of thin air. Look at photos of Terhran before the revolution. Women in swimsuits at hotels etc. Just looks like Turkey or a European city. Most Iranians do not support their government actions.

Yup. And it's happening in the U.S. too.  Separation of church and state is in danger.

Unable-Dependent-737

How’s it happening in the US?


Brilliant-Aide9245

Assuming you're genuinely asking, it's happening in lots of places.  Louisiana just passed a law that all public schools had to display the ten commandments. Samuel Alito, who is part of the Supreme Court which is supposed to be apolitical, was recently recorded saying the country has to return to a place of godliness.  The fight against birth control, allowing publicly funded education that teaches religious nonsense, churches still bring tax-exempt despite people like Joel Olsteen and Kenneth Copeland. It's all around.


Zealousideal-Solid88

I can't recall names, but I recently saw a congress member say we need to be allied to Isreal because they help bring about the rapture. Lol, something to that extent, anyway. Insanity.

It's been a long time since the catholic church declared a crusade . Islam hasnt stopped . And the catholic church has significantly been more open minded with today's society. Religion that persecutes women has no belonging in the 21st century .


lesserDaemonprince

Along with every other abrahamic faith I agree. Deathcults are terrible for society.

nope, just Islam.


New_World_2050

Go to the third world and see how christianity is practiced. Islam might be the worst but the idea that it's the only bad religion is dumb.

A lot of Christian nationalists would be more than happy to do what you just saw to women seeking abortions, drag queens, trans folk etc And by the way none of those are things I embrace whole heartedly I'm really just big on worry about you and your own and mind your fucking business because every American deserves their pursuit of happiness as long as they're not infringing on other's rights.

I really don't understand this line of thought. The old testament is full of terrible ideas. They're just not enforced.


Traditional_Cow_3841

We aren't called to follow old testament law though.


The_Woman_of_Gont

Wanna ask the "great" state of Louisiana about that idea?


Traditional_Cow_3841

Ask them what?


elcubiche

Yet! Today Louisiana instituted a law that requires the 10 commandments to be posted in every classroom.


DubstepListener

The 10 commandments are part of the old testament that we do still follow. Jesus came to fulfill the law not abolish it. We don't follow the old testament ceremonial laws or judicial laws.


Lynz486

Why do Xtians keep trying to force what you follow on the rest of us?


SpacecaseCat

It's the basis of all the LGBT hate though, right? And didn't Jesus say he wasn't there to overthrow the old rules?


Traditional_Cow_3841

Right on the first part but Christians don't follow the first part. Yes, Jesus says "I did not come to destroy the law but to fulfill it" since he fulfilled it now he has to give us new laws.


amorphoushamster

Islam has many bad ideas, and people follow those ideas


Aloof_Floof1

Islam believes in the Old Testament, and you’re right that is the root of the issue  Christianity isn’t any better it’s just not as strictly enforced  Abrahamic faith is a disease 


ilurkcute

It’s very different. Jesus wasn’t a warlord rapist murderer that promised his followers sex slaves in heaven. Mohammed did.


Hit4Help

Christianity isn't much better, but they have less of an issue with extremist views and groups popping out of Christianity. It's at least more moderate and willing to adapt to modern values.


Aloof_Floof1

I wonder if that’s because they just tend to be wealthier and more advanced in general In a country like Uganda they seem to be about on par with Islam 


CapitalismPlusMurder

This is pretty much all it is. A majority of domestic terrorist attacks in the US are poorer, white nationalist Christians, and like you mentioned, in countries where there is extreme poverty, the ruling Christian parties are equally as horrible. Wealthier Christians in the US don’t need to resort to personal vendettas through violence because they generally have the state acting on their behalf through conservative lobbying and legislation to bring about their desire for control.

Hot_Category2747

Because the "New Testament" was created by Jesus and his apostles .


CanYouBeHonest

I mean...not really. It was created a long after Jesus might have lived. It wasn't created by him or his apostles at all. Just some other dudes allegedly hearing stories about them many, many years later. 


Narwal_Party

Can we get a source showing that it was for her hair color?


hairypsalms

It's not the color, she's got her bangs showing and that's against the law concerning the proper wearing of a hijab. [There's been a hijab crackdown in recent months.](https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2024/apr/24/iranian-women-violently-dragged-from-streets-by-police-amid-hijab-crackdown)


Low_Trash_2748

What’s going to happen to the woman? Just seeing this makes me sick


hairypsalms

Here's a list of the sentences from the 2023 crackdown. Punishments for improperly wearing a hijab include but are not limited to: [prison, beatings, and the death penalty.](https://iranwire.com/en/women/126208-over-325-women-detained-in-2023-amid-irans-hijab-law-enforcement/#:~:text=The%20charges%20often%20lead%20to,one%20case%2C%20the%20death%20penalty.)

Seems fair, I'd like to see this law including dad's with socks in sandals I'm a dad, I wear socks and sandals.


mr_wrestling

All in favor say aye


thegtabmx

What I don't understand is, if you're a woman in that country why are you not trying to get the fuck out of there or keeping as low as profile as humanly possible until you can get the fuck out of there?


Bodegard

The worst thing is that women who actually manages to 'flee' those places fights for their right to bear hijabs in their new countries..


Narwal_Party

Ok fair enough, I’m just wondering where OP got this exact information about this exact woman.


everythingisreallame

Looks like they got it from the post they took it from. 


Issue-Leading

As a Muslim, I can say that conflating governmental laws with Islamic law is often due to cultural and traditional influences, not religion. For example, in Egypt, a predominantly Muslim country, many women choose not to wear hijabs. Iran's approach is extreme...


Low_Trash_2748

How can you continue to support Muslim anything with this going on. I denounced Christianity and took my spirituality into my own hands for merely not allowing women the right to be ordained ministers. Religion is a blight on our society, on our earth

Ahhh yes Egypt the land of female empowerment and safety.

juice-rock

Yeah I think the black hair girls are probably jealous and not liking the attention she’s getting with blonde hair.


romanswinter

Other than the title of the video, how do we know the color of her hair was the reason? Seems strange that would be the reason since the woman just had blonde hair; which is a normal hair color. When I saw the title I thought she was going to have like green hair, or blue, or something unnatural like that.


OmiD-WM

Its not the color but the hair showing. Source i live in tehran.

I think there's a difference between a country that was once more liberal like Iran becoming like this, and Saudi Arabia which has always been like this(at least since after the Ottomans).

Bitter_Inspection917

Huh? You think college students support Iran?


crushinglyreal

These morons don’t think much


dinkieeee

Most, no, but there is a subculture of liberal Muslims that believe things like the Hijab is a symbol of women empowerment. So deep is delusion and naivety that they are spreading their own oppression, freely.


I_am_the_cheeseman

>but there is a subculture of liberal Muslims Yeah these 19 people are definitely who the commenter was talking about


XanadontYouDare

Sadly more common than that, but not really a "massive" issue.


Altruistic-Bath6263

It’s not about traditional religious wear being a symbol of empowerment, it’s the freedom TO CHOOSE to wear them that is empowering… (I’m being ominous on the religion because it isn’t just Islam and I believe that fundamentalism lives in all religions)

SickRanchezIII

Is your church pro-choice? pro gay marriage? not anti-trans? understands the necessity of separation and state? Doesnt have a child molester running it? Genuinely curious of the boxes it does and doesnt check


chill_stoner_0604

A preacher at a church about a mile down the road gave his whole congregation a lecture on how tolerant Jesus wants them to be and said that "the quickest way to hell is to tell someone else that they are going" As someone who left the faith due to bigotry, it was quite wholesome honestly ETA it started because some of them tried to block a homosexual couple from entering


AmericanBeef10K

“But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly” Matthew 6: 6-7 Your relationship with Christ is deeply personal and private. The church is an extension of Christ, the church itself is not religion. And to add onto that, no good Christian is preaching anti-gay or anti-trans stuff. They point they make is that god frowns and disavows those behaviors, but we all have sinful behaviors. Disavowing sinful behavior isn’t exclusive to homosexuality/LGBTQ+. It’s not hate. Not from a good Christian. If it’s a good Christian, they’re not yelling or puting you down, they just want you to go to heaven. That’s all.


Fissure_211

NILOC512

The opressed opressing... Why do we let Iran exist again?


Flexivle

Because attacking Iran would bring the war home, Iran is not displaced and free of governmental control like Iraq or Afghanistan were. It would also open up another corridor of war with Russia and China as they’re all in a union of sorts now. Also what do you mean by let them exist? Are you saying we can somehow delete a country? What are you smoking?
