Yeah that will certainly solve all of the main issues that our societies face today. Climate change, extreme poverty unseen since the 1920's, fascists, war...but telling people how to dress, yeah. This is important right now.
Yes, that's exactly the point: It is a meaningless measure improving absolutely nothing, but throwing another hate-treat to the rabid racist crowd while blowing the dog whistle so hard, it sounds like a foghorn. It's legislative procrastination with hate.
What a stupid law.
You forgot sexism, but I guess you are a man and that doesn't affect you.
Well, you could've reminded me a bit nicer of my oversight, but yeah, I totally forgot that one.
so, it will certainly help solve a problem our society faces today.
Taking away a woman's choice is not helping against sexism. Only a sexist would think that.
Making women have to cover themselves to be pure is sexist AF, especially because muslim men can dress whatever they want. The whole philosophy that socializes women to willingly do this to themselves is the problem, and a problem that is enforced by muslim religion.
"no, you are the sexist for not letting us make women dress how we want". What a joke.
Oh, so these women live in a free society that gives them the right to chose what they want to wear (= Switzerland), and it's actually their men who tell them how to dress? But your response to that situation is to limit the rights of the women to chose instead of limiting the men responsible?
Yeah, found the male, sexist, christian extremist. Don't try to pretend that you actually give a single shit about these women, I can see through your excuses.
You forgot to read this:
"The whole philosophy that socializes women to willingly do this to themselves is the problem"
So you're trying to fight one religious philosophy by forcing women to follow the rules of your own philosophy. You’re definitely not fighting for any kind of freedom. I am convinced that there are quite a lot young well educated and integrated Muslim women here in Berlin who wear the headscarf as a sign of rebellion against white people's racism. Just like I used my long manly hair in the 70s to detect assholes and fascists. Worked perfectly.
(I know headscarves are not forbidden by the law. I also know that thousands of racists don’t give a shit about that and will use arguments like yours to harass and assault Muslim women in the real world. That’s why I despise people like you.)
There are countries where lgbt rights are respected, women rights are respected, etc. These countries are not muslism nor islamic countries. Dont come here acting like west culture or western European countries are the problem. No wonder people in islamic/Muslim countries are so desperate to come to the west. I know a lot of muslisms just want to live their lifes, but the majority just want to bring their sexist and homophobic ideals with them, so good thing that countries are implementing laws to stop this.
Maybe you are being downvoted because you are not adding anything to the conversation either? What does that suppose to mean?
"I haven't actually said anything and my post has no value"
Sounds like downvotes are working as intended.
Once again, seeing as OP hasn't replied to you, there is no reason not to sort this to the bottom/hide it as there's no value here to anyone else reading the comments.
This is easily avoided by simply saying "If you live in Europe, {Argument for people living in Europe}. If you don't live in Europe, {Argument for people not living in Europe}" As both groups of people will be reading your comment.
