Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Who knew Islamic zealots would be into sausage parties?

It seems they are basically the gayest dudes in the world, but so repressed that they’re upset about it

Looking at beautiful nature with women = Super gay, effeminate, and worldly

Looking at beautiful nature and getting inspired with your bros = As God intended

Basically for them, women should only stay at home and their job is only to procreate, sigh

Also cook and clean, duh

I read this as "TaliBAN women from national park in Afghanistan"

[–] autotldr@lemmings.world 12 points 1 year ago

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Thousands of people visit Band-e-Amir national park each year, taking in its stunning landscape of sapphire-blue lakes and towering cliffs in the country’s central Bamiyan province.

The ban was announced after the acting minister of vice and virtue complained that women visiting the park had not been adhering to the proper way of wearing the hijab.

Human Rights Watch (HRW) described the ban as the latest in a growing list of restrictions imposed on Afghan women.

Since the Taliban returned to power in 2021, authorities have closed most girls’ secondary schools, barred women from university and stopped many female Afghan aid staff from working.

“Can someone please explain why this restriction on women visiting Band-e-Amir is necessary to comply with sharia and Afghan culture?” Richard Bennett wrote on social media.

The Taliban have long held thatthey respects women’s rights in accordance with the group’s interpretation of Islamic law and Afghan customs.


The original article contains 447 words, the summary contains 151 words. Saved 66%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

Assholes do asshole things- WOW! Who would have thought?

They don't want them finding the secret base. No girls allowed in the tree house, cooties are gross.

A decision you would expect from the Taliban.
