When I think “mega” viral, I was thinking the tweet close to 1M, not 200k tho, it’s viral but not too viral Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the World Cup but there was already news that given Qatar's general reputation on this topic it wouldn't approve of such demonstrations, so the guy could have just gone with more regular clothes... it's a sports event, not everything has to be politicised... When homophobes deny entry to someone for wearing a rainbow on a shirt, then they are making it political. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However it is up to us to decide not to spend money or any kind of resources there. And those values aren’t worth respecting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gay rights are human rights, not "western" values. Funny enough the westerns supporting this tweet are most likely the first to be Islamophobes.

If there is going to be progress in homophobic countries it needs to come from citizens themselves. How is a white person going to visit Qatar and be mad that they are homiphobic lol... Do you think the same about the 1936 Berlin Olympics? Everyone should just go to these events and not saying anything and give the oppressive leaders a global platform to improve their image and not mention any of the things happening behind the scenes?

Do you think FIFA being bribed to host it in Qatar is just magically void of politics? Do you think Qatar having to use horrific slave labor and inhumane conditions to get the infrastructure built in time is an apolitical topic?

This, it was over the moment FIFA decided it was acceptable to hold the World Cup in an extremist Islamic country. That there wasn't a bigger boycott of this World Cup says it all.

Nip Tuck Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 I’m sorry but it’s so ironic that there’s outcry when Muslim women are asked / told not to wear hijabs etc. in Western countries bc it’s against humanity rights but then those same Muslim countries do this (and get support for it). Neither should be happening but the hypocrisy is insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harrier Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 The idea that human rights are 'western' values is as self-degrading as you could possibly get as a non-westerner. Like yes, our culture is great because we don't treat people with basic dignity and tolerance, hell yeah Qatar ! I'm proud to be Qatari ! And all the people from equally **** countries chiming in being like go Qatar! We hate human rights too! Are you not embarrassed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So to counter that, it's good that the women of Iran are literally burning their hijabs because they don't even agree with their "own" culture. It just shows how much straight men alone still get to decide what the culture in their country is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
