      Before the war: Women live under a religious fanatic regime in peacetime.
      During the war: Women live under a religious fanatic regime at wartime. Their children are killed by people pretending to be there to free them.
      After the war: Women live under a religious fanatic regime in peacetime. They remember that your country killed their sons.

      Don’t force your “help” on others when you can’t actually help. Every colonial power was in Afghanistan. None has won.
      Stop the warmongering and fucking let the natives figure out some societal development on their own.

        No they’re really not. In America women can study, drive, walk the streets without being jailed for showing their faces.

            The killing of Renée Good was an atrocity, however it’s hardly representative of the average American woman’s experience, and attempting to claim that it makes America worse than the Taliban’s Afghanistan is just disingenuous

              Did the officer who killed her face any repercussions? If not that means it’s literally normal.

              ICE is literally going around abducting people, the only thing unique about renee good was that she was white

              Pretty fucking representative of the USs treatment of women overseas though

      Yeah I’m sure invading and violently subjugating them will solve that? Cultures definitely grow more open and accepting while under imperial boots.
