We're about to see millions of people who oppose women's rights in the US become deeply concerned

[milestogo]

about the plight of Afghan women... and not see the irony.

1. And all of sudden think democracy is a good thing.

[50 Shades Of Blue]

2. But have no problem endangering women by not wearing masks and getting vaccinated

and endangering children as well.

3. To be fair...

…we’re also going to see lots of ardent feminists over here take a “not my problem” attitude to whatever horrors befall Afghan women.

The hypocrisy is strong on both sides.

7. Lefty feminists minimizing Afghan women's suffering? I doubt this will happen.

Perhaps I have a higher opinion of "ardent feminists" than you do.

The knowledge of what is going on NOW in the prisons, homes, and checkpoints of Afghanistan freaks everyone out!

4. We went into Afghanistan because they harbored terrorists...

My prediction is we’re gonna see a whole bunch of folks who support white nationalist terrorism (particularly on 1/6) but are all kinds of upset that we left a country that we went into specifically because they supported terrorists.

5. The hypocrisy runs deep in the Religious Right by reflex. There are others including

feminists of any stripe, moderate Democratic and farther left women, and others that support equality and sanity have a reasonable reason to question what is ongoing.

One thing have not seen mentioned is what about all those regional capitals and villages far from Kabul?

Those that do managed to escape with USA aid from Kabul will tend to those that were closest to the grifts.

Hell has been brought on the women and children of Afghanistan, many of which had bought into the hope of a brighter future.

When will the line be drawn against toxic religious fundamentalism within the USA?
