It must be the masks.The usual numpties can't recognise the difference
Thats what happens when you go down the path of intolerance.
It starts with a bit of patronising, a bit of mockery, a bit of sexism, a bit of denigration, a tendency to be more likely to mock female politicians than male, the idea that if you call someone here "she" or "her" its belittling - all these sorts of things start to inculcate a belief that women are just not worth as much as men, that they cant really be expected to perform as well, and slowly, bit by bit, it advances through unconscious discrimination, formal discrimination, legal restrictions on rights, denial of basic rights, not taking violence against them as seriously as violence to men, official tolerance of violence, official sanction of violence, until you end up with the extreme misogyny of the Taliban and Isis.
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
If you dont step onto that path in the first place you cant journey any distance along it.
The same applies to anti-LGBTQ attitudes, racism, xenophobia, Islamophobia, anti-semitism...

they're being socially responsible - there's a pandemic on, don't you know.It must be the masks.
Yep, the RWR USA branch are still forcing 14 yr old girls to marry much older men. The GOP and the Taliban are very similar in many respects.
Classic
Trump wouldn't have embarrassed America in the way Biden has
Your screed misses the salient details about Islam and it’s theological views on women. Ask a Taliban chap if his MP could be a female and he will collapse with mirthThats what happens when you go down the path of intolerance.
