Some people in Qatard are confused.

They actually think that their discrimination of LGBT+ people and women is apart of their "culture" and that any criticism towards them hosting the world cup is the Western world being racist. Honestly, it's the same with Christians in the Western world, people seem to think that culture means their right to discriminate against minorities and any criticism is "but muh culture." Honestly, it's idiotic. No honey, your culture doesn't extend towards taking away rights, that's not how it works.

I also love how some Muslims in Qatar are saying "we don't go to Western countries and tell them what to do." There's like several incidents in which they tell the Western world how to run things like the entire 9/11 incident was based on a hatred of Western ideals which interestingly Christian nationalists have praised Muslim fundamentalist groups for the same reason.

Hello! Idiots.

I admire them for being so firm. The West is too weak and indifferent to care about traditional values and it has only been to their detriment

Ngl I don't even want to imagine what the World Cup in the USA and Canada will be like

@SW-User If people need to force others to be traditional then there's nothing natural about traditional values and only violent people are weak, so anti gay bigots that need to be violent or create laws to discriminate are essentially weak because they feel like they need to take things by force. You're a weak person by default.

@SatanBurger you're oversimplifying it

Not everyone thinks like you lol...maybe deal with that instead of criticizing Qatar because they have different beliefs and values to you

@SatanBurger lol, you're really conflating serial killers with gay rights?

As I inquired before, wtf is wrong with you?

The answer to your problem is really, really simple:

Refrain from visiting Qatar if you don't like it, don't try to force your values on other people, and stop complaining about other cultures that are different to yours.

@SW-User Well one thing people would be free to be themselves. They wouldn't get arrested for eating the wrong the thing, or wearing the wrong clothes, or loving the wrong person. It's this little concept we have here called freedom. Most of the world has caught on.

@JimboSaturn in other words, you can't tolerate diversity
JimboSaturn · 56-60, M
@SW-User How so? I dont tolerate their intolerance. The contrary. Canada is a pluralistic free country where you cant oppress people for their faith. Nor can you oppress women or gay people like theocracies like Quatar

@SW-User In that vein nations should never oppose other nations like North Korea that oppress their people.

@JimboSaturn Qatar is a different country and they get their values from their religion

Not accepting their right to operate their country how they see fit does make you intolerant.
