I'm not moving anything btw. What we oppose in other counties and then tolerate in our own, for whatever reason, are inextricably linked. Without consistency we have nothing.
Many pay lip-service to something saying a certain practice is wrong but then tolerate it when certain religious groups practice it in their country because they want to be seen as inclusive and progressive. They effectively turn a blind eye because it's the easy option. No time for it personally. I try to practice what I preach.

I'd say I've got more of an appreciation for what feminism actually is than you do given that you cheapen it by using it to attempt to justify your prejudice. I've never, in all the years I've known you, speak about feminism unless you've used it to bash muslims.
I believe in punishing the individual, not guilt by association. A minority is not representative of a whole but you'll use any excuse to paint in broad strokes.
You just want want to police the world and force your views on everyone which, considering your views on 'PC', is so ****ing hypocritical that I can't believe you seriously typed that without any hint of self awareness. You've called me a bigot erroneously in the past for apparently 'not accepting other people's views' because you don't understand the difference between disagreeing with an opinion and shutting it down yet YOU want to march on in to other countries and force your way of thinking on them. It's beyond ridiculous.
I believe that it's wrong for us to thrust our ways onto other countries and expect them to fall in line, who are we to tell anyone in other countries what to think? It's not our place to police the world, countries that aren't as progressive as ours need to catch up at their own pace. It's not something that we can force.
The only person dealing in lip service is you, you claim to be a feminist but you see progressive attitudes as 'regression.' which makes no sense and you often screech that you feel like your opinion is being shut down yet you want to enforce your way of thinking on everyone else. You are a feminist but only when it suits you and you only believe in Freedom of Speech when it suits you too.
