Good thing we only mutilate boys’ genitals.
Really can’t be overstated how different “female circumcision” is from the male version.
Like comparing ear piercings to ear cropping.
Saying they’re the same is bad but comparing circumcision to ear piercing is even worse. Piercings heal, that foreskin is gone forever.
Speak for yourself. My dad gave me mine on my 18th birthday and i planted it in the garden.
Thank you for mentioning this. I don’t even have that set of equipment, and it boggles my mind that this is normal and acceptable to anyone. Even using religion as a reason just seems ridiculous. Why the hell would you ever cause that much physical pain to a child for a cosmetic procedure?
“Oh, they’re transing the kids!” Fucker, you asked your doctor to cut off part of your son’s junk before he even developed the capacity to lift his own head. Shut the fuck up.
Haha, oh honey circumcision may be the most common genital mutilation procedure, but wait til you learn how those transphobic motherfuckers write exceptions for coercive intersex surgeries into their anti trans laws.
- Texas keeps trying to force Christianity into public schools
- Texas has a bounty system for women who lose a child in childbirth
- Texas continues to use the 13th loophole to compel labor without pay for prisoners
- In Texas, emancipated minors and teens with parental permission can be married over the age of 16
- Texas actually bans FGM, but they do allow male genital mutilation
- Texas police do also shoot dogs.
Fundies are salivating to do the same thing
Seriously I was waiting for the punch line at the bottom, “… Just like Christian Nationalists”
“No girl genital mutilation”
None for boys either, right?
Right?!
Interesting how they don’t mention it, right? Male circumcision is standard in Islam, it should be on the list. Anything to avoid addressing the genital mutilation elephant already in the room.
Christian nationalism
- No religious freedom
- Women brutalized
- Slavery allowed
- Child rape and marriage
- Dogs are not guaranteed good treatment
MAGA Christian nationalism is a death cult.
“NO religious freedom,” so let’s ban that religion? Every religion believes theirs is correct.
“Women brutalized” “Slavery allowed” “Child marriage & rape” These things are already illegal from our other laws.
“Girl genital mutilation” I think this one is already illegal, as well.
“No pet dogs allowed” First of all, wut? But second of all, I’d love to see some Texas politician try to pass a law that outlawed pet dogs. They’d probably get shot to death by the other politicians before they left the chamber.
“BAN SHARIA NOW!” BAN MARTIANS NOW! BAN FISH RIDING BICYCLES NOW! BAN ADULTS FROM SEEING WHY KIDS LOVE CINNAMON TOAST CRUNCH NOW! BAN LICKING UNTIL YOU GET TO THE TOOTSIE ROLL CENTER OF A TOOTSIE POP NOW!
BAN POLITICIANS WHO WASTE OUR TIME WITH MEANINGLESS LAWS AND CULTURE WARS NOW!
Every religion believes theirs is correct.
From a purely argumentative standpoint, that doesn’t mean that one of them isn’t. Again, strictly from a rhetorical point of view.
These things are already illegal from our other laws
From a rhetorical point of view, strictly, one could say, if one were to defend the statement, which I’m not, but one could, hypothetically say that any religion actively espousing those things is worthy of condemnation regardless of our laws.
“Girl genital mutilation”
Same goes for this. Hypothetically.
“No pet dogs allowed”
Yeah I don’t know either. Even hypothetically.
BAN MARTIANS NOW!
No notes.
Child marriage and rape (within marriage) are legal in far too many US States.
Slavery is allowed in far too many US States.
Brutalizing women (if you consider things like revocation of bodily autonomy or incarceration for miscarriages) is legal in far too many US States. If you consider unpunished crimes against women, though illegal, it is far too common in many US States.
Many landlords forbid having pets and there’s little to no recourse for pets killed by the state.
Also these are laws that Christians insisted were fundamental for their religion in our country’s past. Hell, some still say that.
What’s the point in creating a law that bans Sharia Law when the people who would allegedly institute mandatory observation of Sharia Law would just vote to repeal it and then institute it anyway?
Oh, right, Republicans are fucking idiots and this is scaremongering to drive them to the polls.
A lot of this is a tacit attempt to control Muslim municipal populations be restricting how they govern themselves locally.
So you can step in at the state (maybe federal, if Chip Roy gets his way) level and announce this mayor or judge or city council is illegitimate because the leadership isn’t Christian.
Very specifically, this is in response to EPIC City, a master-planned community north of Dallas that’s being bankrolled by a group of Muslim real estate developers. But you can see it echoing the disgust conservatives have for Minneapolis and Dearborn, Michigan, with their own large Muslim populations.
Good thing they don’t read the Bible, because other than the pet dog thing, it’s a tie
If you just change “GIRL genital mutilation” to “BOY genital mutilation”, that list is all things America is famous for.
We’re allowed to own dogs. Until a cop comes within shooting distance, at least.
Are we forgetting we have a literal pedophile as the president?
How about we get that out?
You know what else is a death cult that brutalizes everyone? ICE.
But his a good Christian paedophile
Look at these scary sounding words!
Vote for me!
On a side note: let’s ban ALL religions, the world will thank you the world population will, well, the first generation will curse us, while every next generation will thank is for not being beholden anymore to badly written stonage fairytales
Isn’t all of this what republicans want, just swap fake Christianity in for the only religion, and allow pet dogs (but also the state can kill them randomly with no consequences)?
The Epstein party continues to be concerned about women and children.
Excuse me but Republicans have been in control of Texas for like 30 years straight. So does that mean that they the Republicans are trying to install Sharia law in order to prevent it?
Very specifically, this is in response to EPIC City, a master-planned community north of Dallas that’s being bankrolled by a group of Muslim real estate developers. But you can see it echoing the disgust conservatives have for Minneapolis and Dearborn, Michigan, with their own large Muslim populations.
Yo is there any way to weaponize this into banning all binding arbitration because that would be based.
Obviously no. Prior efforts at invoking this kind of legislation in Oklahoma failed and the federal court struck it down fairly quickly.
Texas actually already has House Bill 4211, the “Sharia Compound Ban”, which states
The purchase agreement and any other agreement or rules governing the residential arrangement or the ownership interest in the entity may not require that a dispute concerning the arrangement or interest be brought before a tribunal other than a court established under the laws of this state or the United States.
This was intended to prevent the completion of EPIC City, a master-planned Islamic community-centered residential development project just north of Dallas. Although this mostly seems to be focused on investment and ownership stake in residential and commercial properties by a large pool of wealthy Muslim investors.
If there’s any effort to invoke this law at a functional level, it will likely be targeted at the minority Muslim Texas residents, with the intent of depriving them of their property and possessions.
So basically they’re fine with a HOA making all sorts of overreaching rules about keeping dogs as long as they don’t have any basis in a brown people religion?
Yup.
