A Taliban official says women lose value if their faces are visible to men in public, and that the only way to wear the hijab, or the Islamic headscarf, is if the face is hidden
The Taliban is what happens when you let incels govern
The Taliban is what happens when the US government funds and arms a right wing religious militia
It’s not accurate to conflate the Mujahideen and the Taliban. In fact, the Taliban is in open conflict with a lot of former Mujahideen.
The Taliban predates US government intervention. Kindly STFU.
The Taliban came to power after the Russian invasion of Afghanistan, you dollard!
3 July 1979: CIA initiates Operation Cyclone, financing the Mujahedeen in Afghanistan.
25 December 1979: Soviet invasion of Afghanistan.
1989: Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan.
1992: Democratic Republic of Afghanistan collapses; start of the Afghan Civil War.
1992: Operation Cyclone ends, after funneling thousands of tons of weaponry worth several billion US dollars to militant Islamic groups, including groups with jihadist ties.
1994: Emergence of the Taliban.

Profit
Taliban really do view women as property, not human.
Most religious zealots are the same…
And Republicans.
They said religious zealots already…
Cunts like this lose value every time they talk.
Are we talking a per pore basis or more like a per square inch of skin thing? Does this mean women with larger faces are more valuable so long as a higher proportion of face is covered vs uncovered? I’m just trying to understand their obviously completely logical and rational point of view here.
Good point. The last thing you want is a woman whose face has been used up by being looked at a bunch of times.
If another man jacks of thinking about your wife, the sex with her is slightly less satisfying. /s
Fuck these small-minded fucks.
Religion impeded their evolution somewhere between monkey and when the started walking on two feet.
IDKY that hit hard, but DAMN that was funny to me tonight!
women should have power, not value
It’s ok for people to have value, but that value shouldn’t only be their appearance. And men have value too. This guy has negative value to the world.
Depends what you mean by value… the Taliban isn’t talking about personal virtue, they’re talking about women as products.

No, not all Muslims treat their daughters like this. Too many do, yes, but not all. Look at Indonesia, for example, or many Western countries which have Muslim populations. It’s partly religion, partly culture.

Hi know good muslim people, so it’s not just that.
That said, plenty of issues come down to religion in general, with a few exceptions here and there.

Correct, and the same for Christianity. The doctrines are really quite similar in their treatment of minorities. The only difference in that respect is that one doctrine says to just kill them, and the other says to exile and shun them (but stoning for some), or torment them mentally and emotionally until they abandon their beliefs and conform to the doctrine of the church.
The tenets of Islam are pretty good tho - pray a lot every day, give money to the poor, do a pilgrimage - it’s the historic and contemporary leadership, culture, violence, and precedence that are bad

Sure, but meditation is good
Praying isn’t Meditating, it’s Praying.

I would love a religion that mandates 5 daily walks
Nope you’re just a bigot.

I’m an atheist and have read the Koran. Got it as a gift from a Muslim friend who is an eminently decent and well meaning person.

Are you dumb or just a bigot?

I’ve dealt with the idea.

Yeah you’re still a bigot, lumping every Muslim into the same fucked up delusion you have.

I’m not your daddy or your teacher. And I wasn’t born yesterday. You’re a bigot and saying otherwise is gaslighting.
So, they subscribe to the Andrew Tate philosophy.
Honestly, this isn’t that far off
Didn’t he literally convert
Didn’t the loser convert to islam a while ago?
I’d say the 7th century wants its values back but on the other hand, no, it probably doesn’t.
“I kinda like mysterious women.”
“I totally agree! They totally lose value if other people can see their face in public.”
“Wait what? No, not like that…”
When you’re a worthless, ignorant, fundamentalist, once dickhead- you’ll say anything to make it look like you have any kind of value at all. If hell was real, these guys would fucking rot there.
How much value is a nose? Just a nose? Like in USD.
No idea in USD, but it must be at least half a goat, maybe even a whole one.
If I see this guy, I see this is more appropriate with men than women…
Women depreciation is worse than on Italian sports cars :-(
Sounds like if they would get less cows for them when selling them on a market, after their face was revealed.
