Only an absolute brain dead moron would think using a Meta tracking pixel wasn’t going to exfiltrate information to Meta. Thats the level of negligence with important data that should be punished. If people are scared to collect data, then the correct goal has been achieved.

It’s a complicated question to answer. Consent can’t be given under duress, and the rate of abuse in polygamous marriages is astoundingly high. If there was some magical way that the state could verify that everyone is consenting with a true option to say no without their life being ruined, that would be great. However having the state decide who can marry would go really poorly at some point. As a result, I think we’re left with the western status quo where we throw the baby out with the bath water and ban the whole thing. It’s kinda like how some people can be responsible handgun owners but others are murderers and the potential downsides are great enough that nobody gets the privilege. Same for selling cocaine.

I honestly don’t understand what you’re asking of me. Women having equal rights is a binary thing, they either do or don’t.

Having that many children is child abuse. There’s no way they all get the parental attention they need.

I answered your question of if my objection was about the subjugation of women, and I pointed out how subjugating women is the problem.

Agreed. I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make.

Based on one comment? You’re pulling that out of your ass because confronting your own inconsistencies makes you uncomfortable. Feel free to stalk my comment history of you want.

Also way to tell on yourself that you don’t respect women’s rights.

Call me whatever you want, I believe women should have equal rights.

Then, according to that logic, not a single person who believes in a mainstream/typical religion is consenting to it, because many families and communities will shun you if you leave their religion.

Yep! It’s truly horrific, isn’t it? If there is an omnipotent god, why do the teachings need to be spread by force an violence by humans? That doesn’t seem very omnipotent to me…

Again, consent under duress is not consent. You can’t consent to a religion if leaving it causes you to be shunned by your family and community.

Then why can’t people consent in the other direction?

Everywhere has religious people that think they deserve to control others.

It’s an easy one-sentence way to point out the inherent subjugation of women.

Consent under duress or desperation is not consent. That’s why I’m pointing out that if the polygamy only ever goes one way, there is an obvious power imbalance that prevents consent from being possible.

Unfortunately that’s not how diseases work. This impacts everyone human in the world :(

Welcome to lemmy. It’s a collection of federated communities. This community is hosted on lemmy.world, which employs similarly heavy-handed moderation tactics to Reddit.

However, like all lemmy instances the moderators are rather short-staffed so you’ll probably be fine unless someone goes out of their way to report your comment.

Unconstitutional is unconstitutional. There is no grey area here.

Find me just one example of a Muslim woman with two husbands.

To prove empirically that he is a king and the constitution is dissolved.
