  • I agree with your point… but i think the problem here is how can the government judge whether one is wearing it out of fear, culture… or simply a personal choice. Now the fact this is applied to under 14 only cancels out the personal choice thing, but there is no way for the government to differentiate between fear based / internalized misogyny or just simply something they wear because its just a cultural thing to do, A lot of progressive muslims wear hijab simply as a personal choice or as identity

    Also a lot of muslims start clinging to stuff like hijab more after they feel their identity is being continuously suppressed, banning it simply attacks a symbol rather than the core issue… you cant fix coercion by coercing them the other way, it can only be fixed through education and ground up change… Christianity didn’t modernize while being in under attack, it modernized when people inside weren’t fighting for their existence (they were erasing others lol but i digress), but rather when they had their basic conditions met and were thinking about stuff like liberty, equality, freedom of expression etc… andeven then it was a very messy and slowly moving discussion

    Its a complex issue I think personally, but the fact that the right wingers are the one pushing for this makes me think its definitely them wanting to erase identity/culture than anything about equality as u said














  • I am not sure what u mean by “care” but as someone who grew up isolated music has always been my best friend… or to be more accurate the best coping mechanism haha, you can coast through your moods and twists and turns of your life much better when you have a song to match your innerstate, idk but its like a way to validate ur internal emotions (which can get intense) in a safe way, nothing better than screaming “so give me reasonnn, to prove me wrong” after feeling betrayed🫣
