FINALLY START BIKE

and think - "all I wanted was $15 of flipping petrol!!!🤬

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout The post mentioned NOTHING about situations where one needs to have full peripheral vision or be identified.

No one suggested that a person wearing a burka would be able to cash a check without showing face with an id.

The question is about outlawing the outfit altogether.

@JoeyFoxx hehe it's called extrapolation of a concept...and giving examples of it.

That's all man.

Amd personally what the women are forced to wear is degrading in my opinion.
Amd many are brainwashed to think it's a good thing.
It makes mobility mote difficult, scares children and limits professions.

And that's what it was designed for -to.make life difficult for a woman.
The legality of it should be obvious.

But - it's just an opinion.

@BoobooSnafu I get it. But, to assume that any woman who wears a burka is brainwashed without also assuming that women who dress scantily in public are also brainwashed is a bit hypocritical.

Every person on this planet is capable of thinking for themselves.

Have you ever had a conversation with a woman who wears a burka about whether or not she wants to wear it?

@JoeyFoxx yes... And although she mentioned the aesthetics of the modern ones _ she mentioned the limitations, and more to the point- how it makes her a target for ridicule and harassment.

Which is sad

@BoobooSnafu so... instead of informing people about Islam... and other faiths... and encouraging freedom of religion... and holding people accountable for that...

We instead want to ban the burka...

Tell me how this makes sense?

@JoeyFoxx this is what 'they ' do to any thing that creates a problem - they ban it.

Rather than inclusion - seems we exclude.

That's why I can't wish people "Merry Christmas" anymore - because it 'offends ' people!

Something fun. Loving and full of goodwill and peace - and I can't express it to others anymore!

This is our world '!
🙄

I think the main issue with the Burka is the anonymity - it's ability to hide identify makes is an I.credibly easy thing to abuse.

Imagine - anyone, could wear one.... Man, woman, black, white.... No one would know.... And therein lies the fear.

@BoobooSnafu I don't disagree with the last part entirely...

Though it's a bizarre world we live in where we must be so fearful of strangers

@JoeyFoxx oh - it's downright stupid!! ''

Makes Me mad.

All this communication hardware and stuff - youd think we would be getting closer.

All this information at our fingertips - you'd think we'd be getting wiser...

But no.... General consensus is stickier head in a box and keep your view narrow and unchanging.

Ugh 🙄🤷‍♀️

@BoobooSnafu We are tying to consume more information than is humanly possible

I heard a fascinating issue of Hidden Brain recently. Explains a lot:

@JoeyFoxx well the thing of the next gen is not so much retaining the information... But sourcing it.
We dont need to retain facts as much as we used to, because we have a world encyclopaedia at our fingertips.

It's jist - people DONT FLIPPING USE IT FOR GAINING UNDERSTANDING!!!!

It's all about the meme!
😊🙄

@BoobooSnafu Some people do...

We just need more of that...
