  2. Marco Rubio's hunt for "#AntiChristian bias" is creeping #theocracy

    In a new war on federal workers, State Department employees are told to snitch on people with #Pride flags

    Excerpt: "Unsurprisingly, a deeper read of the cable shows that 'anti-Christian bias' is the cover story propped up to justify Rubio's actual assault on freedom of religion at State. He's giving Christian nationalists at the agency a tool to harass and even Rpurge people who don't share their #FarRight beliefs. The definitions of 'anti-Christian bias' throughout add up to outrage that conservative Christians are expected to treat people who believe differently with fairness and decency.

    "For instance, the memo asks for reports of 'mistreatment for opposing displays of flags, banners or other paraphernalia,' specifically during Joe Biden's administration. It doesn't take a doctorate in bureaucratese to interpret this. Rubio is seeking stories where conservative Christians were told to mind their own business after objecting to a colleague putting up a #PrideFlag, a #BlackLivesMatter sign or perhaps a religious knickknack from a #NonChristian faith. This might be more comprehensible if, say, any Christians had being told they couldn't wear a cross or have a picture of Jesus on their desk. Instead, what Rubio is suggesting is that Christians have [the right to] prevent other people from having the freedom to express views and positions they dislike — and that it amounts to 'bias' if they can't control what others do or say.

  7. The authorities in Iran are now claiming that this young woman, who courageously removed her clothes in protest against harassment by the morality police at her university, suffers from psychological illness & has been admitted to a mental health hospital.
    I believe her life is now in serious danger.

  8. "The new laws give the #MoralityPolice authority to detain suspects for up to three days. In severe cases, such as repeated failure to pray in the #mosque, suspects can be handed over to courts for #trial and sentencing based on their interpretation of Islamic sharia #law...

    Amir, a resident who lives in eastern #Afghanistan, said he supported the #Taliban up until the latest restrictions. But he now feels bullied into submission by their morality police." [Misogynistic idiot]

  9. How do #Floridians keep electing dim-witted mental midgets like #RonDesantis who don't trust constituents to make up their own minds about arts and entertainment? If you don't like a show or exhibit, by all means don't buy a ticket but don't spoil it for people who are open-minded or less prudish or just curious about artistic expression... 😡#ThoughtPolice #MoralityPolice

  16. #armitagaravand #iran #moralitypolice #mahsaamini Echoes of Mahsa Amini. So the poor girl allegedly “fainted.” The only criminals in Iran are the government and the ludicrously named “morality police.” Long may the protests in Iran continue, and I pray I’ll live long enough to see the Iranian and Russian governments fall.

  19. Iran’s #moralityPolice renew clampdowns on #hijab rules - Christian Science Monitor

    After the death of #MahsaAmini sparked widespread protests across #Iran, the so-called morality police mostly disappeared from the streets. Now they’re back to impose a new campaign to force #Islamic dress on #women.
