Muslim women aren't oppressed now? Making up facts again huh?Claiming a hijab is a form of oppression is not a fact, it is an opinion based on religious intolerance.So facts are "hateful and bigoted"?It is Kathy Zhu who is presenting her tale of woe and oppression
If she has more context that will help her case, she can present it.
I Googled her and this story and can’t find any additional context. Can you?
In the absence of that context, we can only judge from what was in the OP
That makes her appear hateful and a bigot
Wow! Straight out of Big Brother's mouth in 1984!
That's the bottom line, isn't it and as already twice demonstrated we can't know
the context of her full exchange but we certainly can infer she was factually demonstrating how most black people die.... at the hands of other black people.
And that would likely counter what?
The claim that evil whitey is killing so many black people.
Don't come to an argument with your petty two-bit leftist illogic if you want to be taken seriously
(which apparently you don't).
How is the choice of Muslim women to wear a hijab a "form of oppression". I have Muslim friend who refuses to wear one. She has the thickest most beautiful head of hair ever. My Muslim friends who wear hijabs, tell me that they're less likely to be groped or assaulted on the subway if they're wearing one. Some have experimented, with/without, and discovered that with is safer. Others like wearing it, like Catholics wearing crosses, or Jews the Star of David, and have an entire collection of beautiful scarves, to match every outfit. In North America, it is their choice.
Just like a Yarmulke is for some Jewish sects, earlocks and black hats for Hassidic Jews, beards for Amish men, long dresses for their wives, habits for nuns, cassocks for priests, long dresses with sleeves for Quiverful Women, covered chests and long sleeves for Anglican brides, turbans for Sihk men, and on and on and on.
