In reply to the discussion: Iranian university bans on women causes consternation [View all]Bad_Ronald
(265 posts)39. Is there any point of making such notations here?
I'm surprised someone with your post count would even have to make an observation like that. You're supposed to pretend that advocating equality for woman in Iran (or in any part of the Islamic world) is tantamount to advocating war against them. You're supposed to pretend that no such rationale exists in Islam, and that all religions are just as bad if not billions of times worse (especially Christianity) when it comes to the treatment of women, gays, religious minorities, etc. You're supposed to pretend that any argument to the contrary constitutes hate speech, with the onus of any barbaric acts of violence inspired by such hate speech being solely on you.
