I have an ex-in law who lived in Iran in the 70s. She wore short skirts to school and a two piece swimsuit to the pool. She fled before the revolution.
Religious extremism boosted into government can lead to the imposition of terror on women and girls and allies. It can happen anywhere.

And women are usually treated much more poorly than the men.

1) Oh no, you're absolutely right, we must prevent this!
2) Don't threaten me with a good time.
There was a whole nationwide poll about this in early November.
...turkeys voting for Christmas !
its not that ot cn happen, it does
the men call the women whores
the women shame the other women
the public judgement is the same as when people find out a woman had an abortion
There is no founding a country through colonization and slavery and then saying it was to "escape oppression"... Pretty sure that's just part of the myth of US nationalism.
The Pilgrims left England to avoid persecution; then came somewhere they could become the persecutors.
So, both relief from religious persecution, and the freedom to enact it, had a role.
Just not the one they teach.
Even that book said the meek shall inherit the earth. Not these prideful mega church pastors with four Jets a piece.

Nobody is a good person and none of us can merit heaven.
Morality based in fear isn't moral. It's survival.
There is no "Old Testament" god, there is only the one true God who is most fully revealed in Jesus Christ.
The same God that called us to kindness and justice in the Old Testament.
I'll just drop this article for reference....

Same 💩 different acronym.
It wasn't about confiscating oil but more a typical domino theory type of intervention.
Comparing Iranian and American Taliban we see Amer Taliban doesn’t rape and murder women yet, due to its setting on 200+ years of democracy.

We also thought USA will never elect a felon😳
Hitchhiking, walking across mountains.
Her & her brother.
"I'm never going back."
Americans are so so so naive
I think of Hitler.
His sycophants use those words. They banned & burned books. Were against porn, homosexuals, transvestites, Immigrants, & more.
Were just like these crazy MAGAts, just called Nazis then.
And they say we’re the Nazis.
By believing the rhetoric from Reagan & Republicans that the Education budget needed to be cut & after it is they literally blame the Democrats for it. Totally refusing to acknowledge Dems had nothing to do with the cuts.
These Republican voters vote in their Republicans, give them the power to change & destroy laws that they actually like, & then blame the Democrats for what they voted for.
They never take responsibility for their own mistakes. None of them. Won’t even admit it.
That has served me well. The only issue is some apps don't recognize the hyphen as an acceptible character *shrug*
I'm the last on my side of the family. Daddy died before I married. I did it to keep my dad with me always.
Please comeup with a little bit more comprehensive and open-minded definition.
Eyes 👀 wide open people.
RESIST.
The fact they were openly so on their campaign websites and won? Hella frightening.
Both Christianity and Islam are state religions that strive to get that power back.
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion …"
Religious extremism is a cancer to civilized societies.
Satire... but still...

Just like when they say America was founded on Religion, it was not.
The only religion America was founded on was Religious Freedom!
That’s what they forget.
But it’s forgotten & left out on purpose!
They deliberately choose only the parts of a story, leaving out the complete story, to push their agenda’s forward & say they’re not lying.
They do it with EVERYTHING.
all religion gives people base qualities are are antithetical to modern society. having faith is not a good thing. thinking things are real with no evidence is not a good thing. following without question is not a good thing.

I cried at the end of the show on their last tour, as I knew they were done.
These people are absolutely insane!
