    revolutionary

    Ohh right, forcing woman to wear hijab and incredibly oppressive toward woman as intended by the skyman’s book is very revolutionary.

      People assume that revolutionary means “so much better than before” but historically, most revolutions end up being a step back. Revolutions, like Saturn, also tend to devour their children as well.

    Stupid reason for a ban, but I assume revolutionary means that it came to exist out of the islamic revolution in 1979 and is independent from the US empire as opposed to the former one under Reza Pahlavi which came to being out of a CIA/MI6 coup in 1953 and was a puppet regime to the West. Not really an inaccurate description.

      Did you forget China and North Korea exist? There will always be authoritarian nuts for them to gargle.

          I don’t see China falling anytime soon, and by proxy North Korea who China props up. Even if they did, the power vaccuum likely just means another tyrant will take over. Power corrupts.
