hijab or no hijab, forcing women to cover and forcing them to uncover are two sides of the same coin. both violate bodily autonomy, strip women's right to choose. it's control disguised as morality and liberation. a woman’s body is not a battleground for anyone’s ideology.
Women are expected to prevent male violence, anticipate male violence, survive male violence, explain male violence, and then comfort men about male violence.
Before Libya was invaded, it was the fastest growing economy in Africa. Education was free. Health care was free.15 years after USA led NATO intervention, Libya is now a war-zone, an open air slave camp. The USA has never restored democracy anywhere in the world.
You do not earn a billion dollars. You steal it. Nobody works a billion times harder than a nurse, a teacher, or a farmer. That money comes from underpaying the people who actually did the work. Stop worshipping hoarders who are just really good at wage theft.
The Cornell rapists are not "young men with bright futures who made a mistake."
They are the next generation of wealthy, privileged men being taught that their money and status mean they won't have to answer for their actions.
''That child you aborted could have cured Cancer.''
So could the child in Palestine, Ukraine, Lebanon, Congo and Sudan.
You know, the children who are murdered by governments you support.

The man who sent “free p*ssy” to the group chat was on a pre-med track. He was going to be a doctor when he sees half the human race as glorified fleshlights.
And if that single fact doesn’t highlight for you how violence against women becomes a systemic societal issue, I don’t know what to tell you.
This is nothing less than murder.
4 times he was stopped riding without a license, and they let him go. This could have been avoided.
The authorities are responsible for her death as much as the rider.
They raped her for hours and not a single one of them was expelled from @Cornell despite the school fully being aware of what took place. Their only punishment was to write an essay. That girl had her life destroyed by these men and this was the “justice” she received. None of them were charged or convicted.
Women have spent their whole lives playing male characters without complaint. Give you one female protagonist and you cry like babies. So pathetic. Some men can’t handle a woman being the hero unless she’s there to admire, rescue, or sexualize.
