Is the government over there closeted homosexuals or what?

They seem to fit the bill pretty well based off the R politicians getting doxxed on Grindr.

I see this as just another step towards the extremes of ridiculousness that is fundamentalist Islamic religion. Imagine being so disconnected from existence, and being so hypnotised by words, that you would subjugate those in your culture who, through their natural virtue, embody the positive characteristics of the very god they describe and worship such as love, compassion, acceptance, understanding, yeilding, giving etc.

If only this sort of dangerous nonsense were the purview of just fundie Muslims. Fundie Christians would and will do the same things should they gain absolute power.

Right. Margaret Atwood based the Handmaid’s Tale as a combination of things that have happened somewhere, and she arguably didn’t go far enough.

Actually, US occupation of Afghanistan was a huge waste of money. We should have settled for, leave us alone and we will leave your wretched bronze age asses alone. Fuck with us and we will kill you all.

I agree. I protested the war when it started, but it did start, and it did continue, and Trump’s move to free all those Taliban prisoners and basically give the country to them was one tmof the most shameful things America has done in a long time. But Trump loves fascists and the Taliban are fascists.
