Moving has been a total nightmare but it’s getting done. I’m hoping to be back at it tomorrow or Wednesday. I’m dead tired and my back hurts lol. Thanks for being patient.
@KimIversen Quick correction on the 8 April episode, around 33 minutes: Ahmad asks whether this is about the fact that women in Iran “have to have a scarf around their shoulders” then adds “it’s the exact same thing in Saudi Arabia” and you agreed with him. That comparison is false. Women in Saudi Arabia do not have to cover. They can wear what they want as long as it is modest, meaning at least to the knees and no bare shoulders. This is clearly stated in official Saudi guidance. Women who cover do so for religious or cultural reasons, not because the law requires it. Earlier in the episode, you were perceptive enough to question selective framing in Iran and why uncovered women are not the ones being shown or interviewed. Yet when Saudi Arabia came up, that skepticism switched off and an old stereotype was repeated as fact. Selective skepticism is not skepticism at all. It is bias.
