    As long as you know your accusation at Balbus is hilariously hypocritical coming from you. Hope it was not ment seriously because it makes you look like a joke to anybody who knows hardly anyone fakes having a particular stance as often as you :p

    6 has shown right wing humor in a nutshell.

    It's not funny to most people. They get to feel superior since they think they have thick skin since only they laugh. No, he needs to figure out what humor is. 9 out of 10 right wing jokes I hear are like this. It's just a mean and racist statement and the "humor" is the racism.

    I think this is a good example of why there is so few comedians like this.

    Another examples that they laugh it

    How do you starve a black man? hide his welfare check under work boots

    If that's funny to you examine your life.

    At the heart of this is always the idea they use free speech for comedy and jokes require hurt feelings. In a way yes humor needs to say out there things but not as they see it and they ignore the numerous comedians who say things you don't want grandma to hear and it's still not what 6 said.

    Not in this case. His joke was in regards to lack of rights of muslim women. Some thing that always should be regularly examined.

    It was only this year I think, women in Saudi Arabia were allowed to attend soccer matches, in there own seperated section.

    I dont see how you could put that joke on the same level as the one you just typed that implies black guys are lazy

    We both know its an old and unoriginal joke that was not made here primarily for laughing but to trigger.
    You can maintain your conviction that its a hilarious thigh slapper shared here by 6, primarily because he thought it would make people laugh though.

    If you could convince me that Republicans are the party of tolerance, you could sell sand to the Ayraabs and snow to the Eskimo.

    Pretty much.

    There are many cultures around the world that lag far behind in human rights. Islamic cultures very much so. Saudi Arabia finally banned slavery in the fairly recent year of 1961. It always existed in Mauritania. Libya brought it back a couple years ago after Gadaffi was murdered. Not to mention child brides.

    So it’s baffling to me how so many people think that embracing and spreading Islam is progressive

    Nobody is arguing against that women have lesser rights in islamic countries or that its a bad thing.
    People pointing out your joke is old and stale and made to trigger aren't spreading islam, they aren't embracing the negative aspects of islam. Hell, they might not even identify as a progressive.
    You seem baffled by your own tunnel vision.

    Lots of women in the Muslim lands have rights. It is only in a few American supported regimes like Saudi Arabia that they have less. Incidentally, American women do not have equal rights. The Equal Rights Amendment did not pass in America, because of Republican opposition.

    Gaddafi was knocked off by the United States. The turmoil in Libya today is a result of American interference in their country. Your claim that Slavery and child brides were conditions that were brought back to Libya is bogus. There were no laws passed in Libya to bring about such conditions. You have over the years attempted to inflict defamation against Muslims because you hate Muslims.

    Nonsense. The purpose of the "joke" was to stereotype Islam, in furtherance of his long-standing AltLite Nativist agenda to promote antipathy toward Muslims. The "joke" seems to imply all or most Muslim women lack rights. Is that true? You mention Saudi Arabia. It's definitely true there. Wahhabi Islam is notorious for that. Likewise, Afghanistan. On the other hand, Turkey, Indonesia, Algeria, the UAE--not so much. Besides, as jokes go, it's pretty studpid--elementary school level.

  13. But it is progressive, for men. Imagine how the US would be if we just simply adopted Islam. There would be no more arguing with women, about anything.

    Sure, it's not progress for them, but after a while, they'll get used to it. After all, look how many of them already support it and seem to long for it even.

    I'm not sure there are that many people who think that. There are people like me who think it's important to be tolerant of cultural differences; to avoid racial, ethnic, and religious stereotypes; to look for the good as well as the bad in other people; and to make distinctions among individuals. I've had an opportunity to attend services at a local mosque and to get to know a number of Muslims. I also attend Bible study at my Methodist Sunday school and the local Catholic church. There are things I like and don't like about all of them, but overall, I find them all to be worthwhile.

    Have you heard of the Promise Keepers? It's a traditional Christian men's group founded in 1990 by Coach Bill McCartney, enjoining men to take back their patriarchal position of leadership in the home. I used to meet with a group of fundamentalist men from the Church of Christ who had been ostracized form their churches because they were divorced and held responsible for not keeping their women in line. So it's possible for you meet your needs for patriarchy in certain Christian communities right here in the U.S.

    Not sure which men you're talking about.
    I'm trying to imagine this hypothetical scenario and must come to the conclusion it really could take many forms. By pointing this out you probably think I'm for it? :p
    It's cute you think there's no arguing with women in islamic countries :D
     
  17. What I saw over there was not "cute". It was gender slavery.

    People ignore the realities of most Muslims and like to nit pick the details that fit their narrative.

    What personal experience do you have with Muslims or women in the home? Chances are none. Most Muslims living in Europe treat women with respect. They are mothers, they are sisters, they have a mind. Their role may be to care for a family but we need that role. Oddly it's also the place alt-right men seek for women. Let us the man love and honor you. For that we expect a certain return. So I don't see why they think it's such a zinger to say they like women's rights.

    Ok so you the people you don't like.......

    So you have proved my point more than I thought. You literally double down on the same unfunny joke I used as a racist example. You have made the joke for the same reason. This person is lazy and stupid to me. He is not the smart tax hating hard worker I am. This is why few people find it funny. There is not a lot of depth or thought it's just a political statement.

    You seem very concerned with women's rights. Why don't you fight for them in America? A lot of right wing men love to discuss Islam yet are anti-feminist MGTOW types. You have more control of your own reality than the Middle East. Just something to keep in mind. Go help a women in your state who needs access to planned parenthood, go help her fight for equal pay.

    Until you do those things you are fairly Islamic on your views of gender roll.
