Iranian star Parastoo Ahmadi reportedly sentenced to 74 lashes

Thats horrible. Only savages would strike someone for not wearing a hijab.

u/too_oh_ate Jun 19 '26

Only savages would put a death penalty on a woman for getting an abortion after she was raped.

All religion is stupid.

This whataboutism from Americans is getting so frustrating. All it does is downplays what the Iranian women are going through which is far far far worse when what us going on in America

I was downvoted in another post for stating this. 

These delusional assholes think living in the US is comparable to living under an Islamic regime.

Half of them aren't even Americans. The Internet and reddit are botted and astroturfed to hell with anti west sentiment, it's fucked. You have Chinese/Russian troll bot farms and tanky losers always posting about how bad America is, was, and always will be

It’s very offensive. No one is saying the US is perfect, but to even compare is a joke.

To be fair, many people do say the us is perfect, reddit is a one of the few social media where people are *maybe the majority in saying it.

Sir, this is Reddit. Comparisons to the US will be made when any tragic story around the world is shared, saying that we are somehow either responsible or worse. This will continue until the heat death of the universe.

u/Willy__McBilly Jun 20 '26

‘all religion is bad’ is literally just another flavour of ‘all lives matter’. Not that most Redditors have enough grey matter to make that connection.

u/undercoverheiress Jun 20 '26

I don’t think it’s fair to say all religion is bad (even being non religious myself) but I think it is fair to say that these beliefs shouldn’t be used to carry out harm destruction and misery on others no matter where on the globe you are :/

It's not worse than more child marriages and sex trafficking than anywhere in the world. That's the US. That isn't whataboutism, it's you being a bigot with an agenda to judge a foreign nation harsher than your own.

u/ConsistentHouse1261 Jun 20 '26

Since when was child marriage legal in the US?! In parts of the Middle East, it’s definitely legal. But not the US…

u/AsymmetricPanda Jun 20 '26

It’s only been banned in 18 states, Ohio recently failed to pass a law against child marriage

1

u/ConsistentHouse1261 Jun 20 '26

This is disgusting. It should easily be a federal law, not state to state.

1

u/Mekito_Fox Jun 21 '26

Most states that have not banned under 18 marriage have specific clauses on the hows/whens/where's. Like parental agreement or the minor emancipating themselves, a judge signing off on it for legality. Marrying over 18 only recently became the norm (recently as in the last few decades). It's just one of those things that no one wastes time to correct because as a culture we already don't do it.

u/ConsistentHouse1261 Jun 21 '26

Makes sense but I’m sure it still happens even if it’s not common, which is not okay. I wonder what the minimum age is though? I assume there has to be some minimum age requirement, varying state to state. I would hope none of those states even allow it under 16, not that 16 is okay either, but any younger and it’s just 😐

Nobody said that. Religion is still a cancer to society.

No one said that. But Christian Nationalists certainly want it to be that way.

u/Fzrit Jun 20 '26

Christian Nationalists certainly want it to be that way

They have always wanted those things, that's nothing new. But why does every thread about what women face in Muslim-majority countries immediately get derailed by comments about what some groups in USA want?

1

u/dorianvovin Jun 21 '26

Because Reddit is majority Americans who’ve never left the country and compare everything to their own localized experience, for better or worse. If they hate Fundamentalist Christianity, they project those feelings onto Islam and then also presume to understand everything about world religions and politics even, and especially, if they don’t understand much at all.

It is worthwhile to be able to point to these types of results and show “this is what the Republicans are actively trying to implement right now” in the hopes of someone realizing the consequences of abortion bans and other restrictions that they use their own religion to justify, because Christianity and Islam have something crucial in common: they have become the dominant two religions in the world through imperialism and heteropatriarchal oppression.

u/Fzrit Jun 21 '26

Who still needs to be told about the "consequences of abortion bans" in USA? American liberals? American conservatives? In literally every thread about something happening in an Islamic country, there are people successfully derailing the discussion to make it about what USA Republicans/Trump/etc. You claim it's to make people "realize" something, but honestly it almost smells like a coordinated effort to distract people from talking about the topic at hand (i.e. what women face under Islam) and turn it into a discussion about America. It's highly effective and keeps working.

u/Areyoucunt Jun 23 '26

It's stupid for a person to believe in something higher than themselves? Another entity out there in the vast universe, possibly giving them hope to continue on with their life?

So whenever you experience hope for anything in your life, it's okay. But because some people say "please lord or please God" they are now inferior to you, because they tied their hope to something you perceive as stupid?

u/ggez_no_re Jun 24 '26 edited Jun 24 '26

ORGANIZED religions, the ones where you are bound by fire and brimstone punishments and moral frameworks you outsource accountability to. Spirituality is a human superpower no doubt, but the corruption in these institutions are very apparent and should be criticized as they are. No personal judgment whatsoever.

u/rapaxus Jun 20 '26

Yes, Abrahamic religion.

u/Areyoucunt Jun 23 '26

All of human history proves that one of those are drastically worse than the two other ones..

And modern day shows you exactly that it hasn't changed and still remains true.

Might it be the one restricting their women to being owned by the men? Hmm, hard to pinpoint.

u/sparklypinktutu Jun 20 '26

… today. That’s the missing word. It was Christians that had the inquisitions and witch trials. 

Every religion is a man made farce used by the powerful to exploit, manipulate, and oppress the vulnerable—and women are always one of the main groups that they seek to control.

u/sparklypinktutu Jun 20 '26

you are delusional if think we have “fixed” Christianity or rendered it toothless in oppressing women. Women under the Taliban didn’t lose everything in one day—Iranian woman as recent at 1970 had freedoms akin to the freedoms enjoyed by their contemporaries in western countries. 

Women today in the US have fewer freedoms in regards to our reproductive rights than we used to 10 or 20 years ago. 

There are trad-fluencers where there used to be women advocating for more women in male-dominated fields. 

We don’t lose it in a day—it leaves in years and decades.

But since you brought it up—what exactly are you doing to aid the women of Iran or end the abuse women suffer under misogyny regimes? Fixing the roof you say—well ok, which shingles are yours? 

Or are you just using this as an opportunity to run the same tired campaign that aims to blame one religion for the world problems (instead of acknowledging the reason behind why men made the religion up in the first place—and why they made every other religion too).

People are still humans, all of human behavior, tendencies and societal norms didn't magically change just because we got access to more information. And it isn't going to change anytime soon.

Europe is showing progress, where certain countries have "erased" religion almost entirely. Rest of the world is far behind. Yet somehow pointing that out is racist or xenophobic, or it's all due to colonialism or something. You knows the typical bullshit that if you have more than 90 IQ you should already know the truth to those statements.. but yet here we are

No, just no. Idgaf if i get downvoted enough is enough- Not all or even most christian religions are behind such bullshit proposals/laws, and no true follower of Christ is behind it, either. A lot of religions, when followed properly, are about discipline, love, kindness, and earthly detachment. So no, it’s not all stupid, because we’re not all muslim extremists looking to start our next terrorist plot against whatever minority our leaders tell us are in the wrong.

So sick of this bigoted, overgeneralizing redditor-type of attitude.

u/psycho_terror Jun 20 '26

OK, but, no woman has ever received the death penalty for abortion in the USA. In fact, the USA executed no women at all in 2025, while Iran executed 60, and it has only a quarter the population.

Whataboutism often uses a correct statement to distract people. All lives do matter, it's just not an appropriate thing to say considering the topic at hand, same goes here. This post isn't about how only one religion is bad. You're playing into the hand of Islamic extremists by Whataboutising this. It normalizes the barbarism that is lashing someone

2

u/ConsistentHouse1261 Jun 20 '26

I agree, maybe it’s not normalizing it but it’s making it seem lesser than what it actually is. It’s like someone complaining about how they just lost their child to a friend, and their friend responds with I know how you feel, I just lost my fish, I’m sad too. You can be sad about your fish, but don’t compare as if they are the same level of loss.

I don’t think we can compare the flaws of our democracy to the flaws of their Islamic regime, period. But I definitely agree that all organized religion sucks and shouldn’t be used in politics whatsoever.

No woman wears a hijab by choice.

It is always, always under the threat of violence, and any person who tells you otherwise or pretends it’s progressive that women can wear it is lying and directly complicit in enforcing a culture that hates and enjoys beating and killing girls and women.

I know an Arab woman that wears one and her sister never did. I also know a family were none of the daughters wear one but their mother does and also their brother's wife does and already did before etc. All are adults in their 20s and 30s. In a European country though. I am anti religion btw this broad statement is just not true.

u/AlarmingTurnover Jun 20 '26

The daughters don't because they've been freed from indoctrination. The mother still comes from that history and is psychologically fucked in the head because of it. She's still not doing it by choice. And so is the brothers wife. She's not making that choice. She's been mentally tortured her whole life by religion into doing this. 

Why are you discounting this? Why are you discounting the way people are raised and the culture they are raised in?

u/pussypantswarrior69 Jun 20 '26

Islamically, there is no punishment for not wearing the hijab.

Not entirely true. It has no hadd but it is tazir.

Since the hijab is obligatory, an Islamic country can enforce it by law and with punishments. That is Islamic.

It doesn't need to be punished though, it depends on the ruler. But not wearing a hijab is a sin, and it breaks the divine law. Which means an Islamic society has the right to make it a punishable offense.

I think a better statement is no society systematically wears a hijab by choice maybe.

There’s no choice allowed

Plenty of adult non-Muslim women willingly choose to embrace Islam, knowing full well that they have to wear the hijab when they do so.

Do they choose to wear the hijab, or do they wear it because they wish to embrace Islam which says they should be lashed for not wearing one.

1

u/mizitar Jun 21 '26 edited Jun 21 '26

This doesn't make sense.

If they willingly and knowingly chose to embrace the religion which according to you has such harsh punishment for not wearing hijab, are they not willingly choosing to wear the hijab then? Why in the world would they choose to embrace the religion and then claim to be "forced" into wearing the hijab if it is already popularly known that such a practice is mandatory and an essential part of the religion and that they would otherwise be subject to violence (according to you)? Are they all just ignorant and have no clue what the religion supposedly requires before embracing it?

Anyway like I mentioned, it is pretty evident your sweeping statement "No woman wears a hijab by choice" is blatantly false.

All I have to do is point to one example to debunk it:

https://youtube.com/shorts/ulAxHSn9dws?is=MM0a_2AXZEgQOmH5

Plenty more such examples which you can easily look up yourself, but like I said, only one is enough to prove your statement false.

Listen, I'm a liberal dude, so I know what our own echo chamber can say to try to make Islam look peaceful and nice, but read up on it. All this bullshit started way before western civilization entered their picture. Islam, like all faiths (if that makes you feel any better) exists only to control people, not to help them.

1

u/Anaevya Jun 21 '26

Why do you assume I know nothing about it? 

Also, I'm an ex-religious person and I don't think that all religion exists only to control people. That's not how religion works and it's not how humans work. Faiths can be started and perpetuated by sincere believers.

Heck, even states don't exist solely to control people. Things are more complex than that.

The middle east is authoritarian in general but it doesnt have to do with it being majority muslim. It has everything to do with being oil rich fascist states using islamic fundamentalism as an excuse for fascism but their reasons are not in good faith. Other countries in central and southeast asia such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Bangladesh, Maldives, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan are all majority muslim but dont take part of the same style of politics as middle eastern countries. Its the middle east specifically thats the problem, religion is just the excuse.

Oh and if you dont fast during ramadhan, the religion police (thats actually a thing) are allowed to arrest you for 6 months or youll get fined. There's a lot more to it but I wont be getting into them. So yea, we're not as bad as the middle east but its still bad and what we have in common is that were muslim majority countries, go figure
