Afghan schoolgirls are weeping as they finish sixth grade, knowing their education is over. Under Taliban rule, they are unlikely to ever step foot in a classroom again.

    You’re allowed to use a specific example to make a general point.

      Funny how that seems to happen with minorities and Islam but not white people.

        You’re the only person concerned about race here. Stop being racist.

          That’s literally a line used against people protesting for minority rights. It’s not racist to call out problematic stuff.

        Literally nobody mentioned race.

        And aside from that, you’re wrong anyway. People criticise “white” religious beliefs too. A lot.

        Like, you’ve never heard people hating on the catholic church and the people who support it for turning a blind eye to sex abuse scandals? Seriously?

        Or about the religious Christian crazies in the US? You’ve never heard about that?

        Or the cult that is Scientology? Is that something you’re unfamiliar with?

        Fuck off with this trying to frame criticising a religion or pointing out its harmful effects as being racial bigotry.

        It’s not racism, and you know it isn’t. You’re just indirectly supporting actual bigotry that Islam pushes against women, LGBT people, and non-believers.
