Perfect
Congrats on perpetrating racist, sexism bullshitty stereotypes. You are a scummy scummy person.
Give her a voice?
GIVE?!
I’m more than pretty fucking sure they’re born with one.
If the only way you can see to “de-stereotype” anyone is to make them more White and Western, then the issue lies with YOU, not them.
This is some white nonsense if I ever saw it. This is why I don’t fux with white feminists. Y’all ruin things.
what in the name of god did I just read?
What you just read was yet another failed attempt at the right wing mentality attempting to usurp the use of humor and art—natural enemies of the conservative mind.
Uh, let’s not fob this one off on the right wing and conservatives… whoever made this cartoon, there are plenty of liberal feminists who feel exactly the same way, and we should be prepared to own that.
(Personally, I don’t know many conservatives who would consider a woman flipping people the bird and and telling people to shut up to be progress.)
Edit: Also, the stamp on the side says “atheistcartoons.com”. Yeah, let’s not blame this one on the right.
Disgusting. Here’s how to actually “de-stereotype” a Muslim woman: stop giving into your racist, xenophobic instincts and accept that she too is an individual.
The “give her” part is literally the worst.
I think telling her that her religion is inherently wrong is worse than “give her a voice” because the whole post is attempting to “give her” a voice by taking away something important to her. Because while “give her” implies that it is ours to give, it’s really saying “help her find”. And the idea that the only way we can help people find their voice is to take away part of their identity seems… wrong.
Islam has a lot of beauty to it. I’m an atheist but I love the power of religion to inspire people, and I’ve seen Islam do a lot for people who really needed help, including women.
askljdg I wrote out a response and my computer did something funky.
I was appalled by the egocentrism it took to say “give her” because as you said the phrasing makes it seem like it’s ours to give, but you’re right in saying essentially that’s what the whole comic was about – “giving her a voice” by stripping her of her identity. I took a second look at the comic and it referred to what she was wearing as “beekeeper’s headgear” which is pretty disgusting. I’m not sure how they would ‘give her’ the same rights and privileges as men when that’s not provided in western culture either- but it seems like the person who made the comment might think that sexism exists mainly outside of western culture. (Obviously I can’t be sure, but that’s what it seems like to me) It’s just very gross to insinuate that her religion is inherently wrong. :/
AS A COVeRING MUSLIM WOMAN THIS COMIC PISSeS Me OFF
As someone who’s mother wears hijab and has to go through this on the daily I call BULLSHIT! Bullshit on the idea that only white feminism is the right feminism Bullshit on the colonialism still present in the world today because apparently white people still think they have to ‘free’ the ‘savages’ and ‘save us from ourselves’ and all that other condescending self-serving bullshit. Fuck outta here.
I also call bullshit on the idea that Muslim women are somehow uneducated. My mama is working on her Master’s and my Aunt has a pHD. So fuck outta here with that racist ass islamophobic bullshit.
And since you’re implying that people from America (the land I call home bitch look it up) have the same rights and privileges as men I’m just gunna sit here laughing in your mutherfucking face. Whoo, think I got some tears in my eyes.. So funny…
And bitch if you wanna hear my voice then hear it it is: SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU BACKWARDS ASS IGNORANT HATEFUL CONDESCENDING MUTHERFUCKER. And I don’t have to pretend anything. In my heart I know what’s real and I don’t need your fucking approval and your fucking white savior complex and fucking god complex and master complex. I don’t need you to tell me who the fuck I am. FUCK OUTTA HERE WITH ALL THAT BULLSHIT. Happy now? You gave me voice bitch. Thank you. I am so grateful. Should I serve some shai now?
Oh and I’m not even gunna touch on the fact that atheists think they’re better than people with religion because of our blind cultish ways yet you come at me with this brainwashed almost word for word media propaganda bullshit. Fuck outta here bitch.
all of the above.
“give her a voice” jfc
“educate her” yeah, ok, my mom was a scientist that worked in fucking YALE splicing genes and shit, and yr sitting here smelling yr farts. stfu
so pissed off rn, i s2g
So filled with rage. At every goddamn panel. Beekeeper’s headgear, nice. Sackcloth, lovely. And it’s not as if Islam promotes education, for both men and women. I hate that this is putting Muslim women in the position of having to proclaim their credentials, as if education is the golden ticket and doesn’t need empathy and judgment. My grandmother, who never graduated high school, has exponentially more intelligence and independence than whatever clown thought this up.
The whole thing is basically atheists doing to us what they claim Islam does.
