I have a feeling Women’s Rights are in a decline globally.
Not all countries claim that they care about women rights though. Those who claim they are but practically they are not are worse
Well when a country decides to go all in on religion…

Males bullying females is the “wedge” that they use to get far-right totalitarianism’s basis in…
It’s consistent, through different cultures, & it may be hardwired in our limbic system: bullying women is the basis for male-fascism-totalitarianism.
Counter it XOR fail the Great Filter, humankind…
Having-exterminated-ourselves is a “valid” choice, in Universe’s Natural Selection’s eyes…

Right wing government dislikes womens rights, more at 11.
makes sense tbh.
A country known for making war crimes and genocides doesn’t support human rights? Consider me as surprised.
I mean I get that’s bad, and it’s definitely a sign of civilization regressing, and with each step backwards, we continue to inch towards the day where we finally topple any evidence of progress that has been built, and we’re lucky if we can even hold it together enough to emerge from the ashes of modern society as feral bands of mud people with some chance of perhaps one day making it back to this same point in another 2000 years or so.
But, is the “loss of women’s rights” perhaps offset by the privilege of knowing that even if you lose your rights, you can still be shitty to people of a different ethnicity without concern of public judgment or accountability for your shitty behavior? And if so, isn’t that what freedom is all about?
That is what national-narcissism is about, certainly…

Women’s rights are on a sharp decline in Israel.
Yeah, that’ll happen in a patriarchal theocracy.
John Kerry warned that Israel can be Jewish, large, democratic, pick two. They picked Jewish and large. Now leopards are coming for faces.
You mean fascists don’t respect human lives? But muh LGBT equals! Muh only democracy in the region!
you’re telling me this ethnostate is discriminating against people??
I’m shocked! Shocked! Well, not that shocked.
But I thought that we (U.S. people) were supposed to support them because they are a champion of democracy and human rights.
I’m calling bullshit.
What have either the US or Israel got to do with democracy or human rights nowadays, anyway?
Depends on who’s trying to say they’re good ones
Most moral society now!
I don’t doubt that Israel is backsliding on women’s rights, but this “Women, Peace and Security Index” has got to be bullshit.
They have a bunch of parameters that try to capture the situation of women, and I’m sure that can be useful to gauge which way the wind is blowing for a single country, but it gets kinda ridiculous when Saudi Arabia gets a much better score than Turkey, China, India, Brazil, Iran, and Mexico.
Just a reminder that women were not allowed to drive in Saudi Arabia until 2018.
63-million women genocided ( when newborn, all the way to husbands burning-to-death their wives, from what I’d read in other stuff, through past years ) proves that India isn’t protecting women’s lives…

There’s another article here on lemmy.world/c/world that was posted recently, about how now women are allowed to drive, in Saudi Arabia, but the regime is exterminating criticism, through executions.
The truth is hidden-in-the-murk, unfortunately…

Hey everybody, this guy thinks he knows better than The Experts!
If the experts claimed an helicopter crash is perfectly normal and a better outcome than a normal landing, I don’t need to know to pilot to be able to tell they’re full of bullshit.
Once they’ve killed all the Palestinians and journalists, the IDF will need someone new to shoot
You joke but this is why fascism isn’t sustainable. You always need a scapegoat and eventually your gonna run out of them as you make your population more and more uniform.
No you don’t run-out:
Factionalism will always provide more “enemies” for that-Way.
“Corps Business: the 30 Management Principles of the US Marines” identified something in our nature, in 1 of the principles:
IF you just keep accumulating people, in say a village, or orgnaization, there is a point around 150-people, where factionalism sets-in.
Al Gore & Associates ( Goretex ) intentionally limits the parking-lot size, so that when it’s visible that there are now enough people working at a site, that some are parking on the lawn, then they need another site.
Militaries all 'round the world have a 150-person “company” or equivalent, but not a 200-person one…
Even if some rabid ideology exterminates all “others”, then it’ll fractally divide-up & begin its civil-war, because factionalism is intrinsic to our unconscious-minds…
That’d be true for all except people who trained to dismantle unconscious-narcissism from their unconscious-mind’s ruling-of-their-life…
& nobody I’ve encountered has earned that, except perhaps the Society of Believers ( the Shakers ) community it the US ( @ Sabbath Day Lake, iirc: Christians: they identify that THE primary cause of people not-staying is “too much community” ).

I’m sure they’re efficient enough that they can start shooting new groups before they’re completely finished the previous groups.
When they’re done raping all the women and young girls of Palestine, they’ll turn their rape spree onto Israeli women and young girls.
I wonder how all these pick me bitches openly supporting the IDF will twist the narrative for it.
