I think a person should be able to wear whatever they want, fundamentally, but I’m confident that many of these women didn’t choose to cover up their whole life.

Why don’t you go talk to some Muslim women and actually seek their opinions on these things instead of just assuming what they want?

As more people come into the west seeking something better, they need to abandon some of their culture that is retrogressive. Burkas as retrogressive.

No, actually. If they’ve had to come to the West because the West keeps bombing the shit out of their homes, they owe the West jack shit. Whether or not the Islamic community wants to change some of its cultural practices to adapt to the West is for Muslims to decide and Muslims only.

This is just sexpat white saviorism 101 wrapped up with progressive language.

Most of the West by land area is built upon the graveyard of peoples slaughtered for their land and on the backs of people enslaved for their labor, but yeah that’s just “some bad shit”.

How about you Westoids deal with your own litany of unspeakable crimes against humanity by giving back your stolen lands and paying full restitution to the surviving descendants of your victims before you get on your high horse about how the Islamic world you’ve continuously bombed for the last two decades isn’t “progressive” enough.

Maybe people wouldn’t have to flee their homes and bring their “dumb shit” with them if you didn’t keep blowing their shit up.

“The exact same conclusion as Islamophobic chuds, except I’m being feminist. Trust me.”

It’s possible to be right for the wrong reasons. Don’t let what “chuds” think define your moral code.
