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.

So much of what is illogical around the globe in the modern era is underpinned by the vestigal notion / excuse of "culture" — which is emotional, not rational

The tolerance of intolerance paradox is only one manifestation of this

I wish the archaic concept of culture would die, this amorphous thing called culture is not sacred

@SW-User Agreed and it sucks because you can't talk logical with irrational people who use emotions to rule over them rather than reason. You can't just have a conversation with them because it's basically a dead end. You might as well be talking to a wall which is horrifying because those walls make laws and govern over people.
