I would say bomb them back to the stone ages, but they appear to be there already.

Can we agree there is no religious authority for committing violent sexual assault?

Because Allah looks the other way on same sex activity if it's being used as a tool of oppression?

My god you sir are a genius!! Let's bomb the entire nation to punish the government for oppressing their people. What a marvelous idea, what people that are left alive after the bombings will surely crawl out of the rubble of what was once their homes and lives and thank us with open arms.

Do I really need to put /s for this one? Your comment makes me doubt your intelligence so maybe.

Iran is an Islamic republic and condemns homosexuality, yet their secret police are raping men all the time??

Aren't these meant to be the "morality police" who are doing the rapes here. What a mess.

A lot of it is psychological warfare in the sense that they emasculate the men and make them more "woman" like, thus weaker, by raping them. If you do some Googling, you will find this is very common in this culture. An example: Gaddafi was raped with a baton when he was captured by his captors.

The ol "You're gay for letting me rape you," line. A classic.

This read made me sick.

Also: “women should wear headscarf so that men don’t sin with their thoughts. If they don’t, we risk to sin so let’s actually rape them to death, so we can live sin free.” Sure buddy.

They claim to follow islam, yet they go against everything of what it means to be muslim. If they meet their maker one beautiful day, I’m sure he won’t be pleased.

They claim to hate these "backwards heathens" but their aims & ideas are SO much closer than they'd have you believe. They WISH they could behave like them.

I once had a discussing in an intro to philosophy course about the hierarchy of bad shit. There was a consensus that murder was the worst thing a person could commit, but i was willing to die on the hill that says rape is worst.

I agree, I just listened to a podcast where the host has a woman on that said in Iran they have a religious shit bag say that it is halal to rape this woman for the next hour while she is in custody.

I remembered the reports saying that a baton was hanging out of his clothing, but I checked back, and you are correct. Those are images I can't unsee.

Both murder and rape, take a life away. But I agree that rape is worse as the person is living every day with that trama. It doesn't end.

Basically they are saying that to preserve the moral structure of Iran, they must rape the people who disagree. Who else feels this is just a coverup for a corrupt system of limp dicked misogynists? How do you enforce a religious code of behaviour while raping in gods name.

I feel physically I’ll after reading that. Shit like this is what makes me really hope there is a hell. Because eternal suffering is the only thing these fucks deserve. Fuck the Iranian government, fuck the ayatollah, and fuck every single supporter they have.

Hate to say it, but peaceful protest isn’t gonna be enough this time.

Peaceful protest may work in places where the government isn’t likely to just kill you.

However, the Iranian people are gonna have to fight fire with fire.

Your overall statement aside 'Infidels' isn't just "anybody they're against", it means unbelievers. if anything these protesters would be apostates if they want to go down that route.

I don’t know about better or worse, but there are recognized and accepted reasons to end a human life; I cannot think of a single good reason for sexual violence under any circumstances.

That's because it's not about gender, it's about religion and control

Sadly I don’t think many of us expected anything less from Iran. Learning their “morality” police use rape as a weapon against people they hate is not surprising at all.

I think certain torture methods are worse (I have read about some and had nightmares). However, I don't feel like it's appropriate to discuss what's worse in front of victims. It's not supposed to be a competition.

I wonder if they can pull a "south sudan" and have people create a safe part of their country for those wanting freedom

It’s worse than that. Girls can’t be executed in Iran. Unfortunately, culturally, once you’ve had sex (or been raped) you’re not a girl. Therefore they must rape girls and unmarried women so they can be executed. It’s been a norm for decades in Iranian prisons. To them it’s bonus points that some interpretations of Islam don’t allow these women into heaven as they died not virgins while unmarried. Virgins always go to heaven, so that must be stopped to them.

This kinda applies in Iran as well, the penetrating person gets prison or in some cases lashings according to law while the penetratee gets a death penalty. Of course this is the official law, there is alot of stuff that gets "officially " thrown under the rug like this post.

Yeah I didnt know what the mindset in Iran was so I didn't want to assume and just stuck to the general claim that I was sure of, but I suspected it would be that way.

Men have done that to themselves and many still continue to do it. It should be recognized but it (often) isn’t and a large part of that is men minimizing the feelings of other men. You can’t have a conservative manly man culture that emphasizes strength without losing the ability to be vulnerable with each other.

Edit to say I’m referring to US culture specifically.

I’m not going to assume what country you’re from or the laws there, I realize that I assumed you’re American for some reason, my bad.

The US generally doesn’t use the death penalty for rapists unless they also murdered the victim. Even then it’s not very common. The US has been slowly working to remove gendered language from our laws regarding sexual assault as well but it’s a long process that’s only partially completed. Conservative pushback about “being a man” is a large part of that problem, which was what I was referring to in my first comment.
