    MULTICULTURALISM OVER FEMINISM:

    A Rape Survivor Just Won the Nobel Peace Prize. ‘Feminists’ Are Nowhere to Be Found.

    This is why it’s hard to take the Left’s moralism seriously.

    [​IMG]

    As feminists were busy peddling their “War on Women” narrative in the U.S., Yazidi sex slave survivor Nadia Murad was honored with the Nobel Peace Prize for fighting a real War on Women in the Middle East.

    Nadia was honored for her efforts to end the use of sexual violence as a weapon of war, together with Dr. Denis Mukwege of the Democratic Republic of Congo, who has been a relentless healer and advocate for women.

    Their stories serve as an important reminder that as American women debate what constitutes enough evidence to block a nominee from taking a seat on the Supreme Court, corroboration and evidence are abundant in places such as northern Iraq, where hundreds of women and girls are still enslaved and routinely subjected to rape.​

    What exactly were you expecting from "feminists"?

    And, c'mon dude--The Daily Signal?:roflol:

    An extreme RW Fever Swamp BS publication that nobody (except RW Trolls) takes seriously.

    The Daily Signal? :roflol:

    Feminists are against what happened to Nadia as they are against ANY exploitation of women. What were you expecting?

    What these women went through was far worse than what any ordinary rape victim has gone through.

    She is a credit to women and she is fighting a real war for the rights of women, with great risks, and helping women who are truly subjugated and who need help. American Feminists don't care about their sisters abroad not really.

    I would say its the fourth wave feminists that are nowhere to be found. Fourth wave feminists aren't interested in this because a) she actually is a survivor, not just someone claiming to be, and b) she isn't accusing someone the mob has motives to take out. Fourth wave feminism is about weaponizing sexual assault into a political device. I'm sure classic feminists took note of this Nobel recipient.

    That someone feels the need to dig up something like this in order to attack females and debase feminism indicates a deep seated and underlying issue with women taking a stance against the history of male control and abuse they have suffered. It makes me wonder what compels such a thing and unpleasant/disgusting mentality comes to mind. Perhaps personal rejection or dismissal by women or Mommy issues.

    Your BIASED source has ZERO credibility!

    Try some FACTUAL sources instead.

    Involuntary celibacy is another potential motivator.

    News stories from 3 years ago:


    A sixteen year old girl was kidnapped by ISIS Muslims who sexually tortured her for months in a bone chilling story that truly shows the endless depravity so prevalent in that part of world. A European muslim man took her, handcuffed her, electrocuted her body with electric shocks, and raped her. He then passed her on to his friend who raped her for a month. After all this, she was passed along to yet another muslim from Algeria who kept and raped her for one month as well. According to a report published by Human Right Watch:

    Two sisters, Rana, 25, and Sara, 21, said they could do nothing to stop the abuse of their 16-year-old sister by four men over several months. The sister was allowed to visit them and told them that the first man who raped her, whom she described as a European, also beat her, handcuffed her, gave her electric shocks, and denied her food. She told them another fighter later raped her for a month and then gave her to an Algerian for another month. The last time they saw her was when a Saudi ISIS fighter took her. "We don't know anything about her since," Sara said. The two sisters said they were also raped multiple times by two men, one of whom said he was from Russia and the other from Kazakhstan.​


    One Christian girl, named Anita, was brutally raped and sexually tortured by a gang of ISIS muslims. They came to her, pushed her parents aside, tore off her clothes, and each took turns raping her:
    Rescued Christians: Lazar Masih


    ISIS fighters encouraged to rape Christian women, told it will convert them to Islam

    The Islamic State has issued guidelines to its fighters saying that raping a woman ten times will convert her to Islam, a former sex slave has claimed.

    Noor, a 22-year-old Yazidi woman, was abducted by ISIS when her village in the Sinjar province of Iraq was attacked by jihadists last year. She told CNN that she was bought by a militant who forced her to marry him, and later showed her a letter he'd received on the front line.

    "This shows any captured women will become Muslim if 10 ISIS fighters rape her," the militant told her. Noor says she was then raped by her "husband", before he gave her to 11 of his friends who each raped her as well.

    Are you alleging that no other rapists have ever beaten, tortured and/or imprisoned the women that they rape?

    Not the way these women were routinely treated.


    Why are you trying so hard to minimize what these women went through?

    Ironic PROJECTION since it is you that is trying to minimize what ALL rape victims endure!

    You have ZERO substantiation to support your allegation.

    Rape is a VIOLENT CRIME against women and to disingenuously allege that "some rapes are worse than others" minimizes and disparages what other rape victims have experienced.

    They would probably consider Nadia Murad to be one of them. That is to say, they would consider her to be a feminist. I'm not really sure where this idea that they are supposed to be opposed to her is coming from... but what to I know, I'm not a feminist

    The sexual transgressions feminists are always complaining about are not even in the same boat as what these Yazidi women endured.

    Look over there, feign empathy for the raped!

    Look right here, persecute the accusers of rape!

    Cast you mind back to history, black people of conscience with a legitimate complaint!

    Look today, blacks are terrorists like BLM!!!!!

    Or how about let's defeat Adolf in the 40s? Let's go!

    Today, Adolf is being shut down on campus! Set him free! Why do you hate freedom!

    Trumpkinism.

    Seriously...how did we get to turning an Iraqi refugee who is an activist against human trafficking into being some sort of opposition to feminists and liberals?

    On what planet are they supposed to be against this person?

    Let's not trivialize anyone's suffering, that isn't what the debate is about. I'm pretty solidly republican, and disagree with the tactics of the left, not their general morality. Take Kavanaugh as an example: No one on either side of the spectrum has any idea whether or not he did it, there just isn't enough evidence either way. As such, from my perspective, the presumption of innocence is the only thing we have. If he had not been confirmed, it would have set a horrible precedent and made it virtually impossible to confirm a justice with a fairly evenly split senate. This is true with the whole movement, it isn't that women shouldn't come forward or shouldn't be taken seriously. It is that the publicity that it receives ruins lives on mere accusation.

    For anyone fighting for what is right anywhere, I'm with them and just hope that someday we can find solutions that don't just trade one victim for another.
