"In order to maintain a tolerant society, the society must be intolerant of intolerance." Paradox of tolerance
what she meant by it:
someone brought up in a culture of gender equality making a choice to rape is seen as abhorrent to those in that culture, where as someone brought up in a culture of no gender equality making a choice to rape is not necessarily seen as rape to those in that culture
how can you accuse someone of rape if their culture doesn't consider what they have done to be rape?
that's like telling a bee that stung you it did a bad thing...the bee does not believe stinging you is a bad thing...
she was not referring to how bad it is for the victim, she was referring to how bad the rapist is...

Whether it's by a native or an immigrant doesn't change how bad it is. The point is, if you migrate to a country you live by those standards or get lost, no shit. The governemnts of the european countries that are currently infested with immigrants should, instead of granting them all they want, instead place them in a school or whatever where they are taught how to behave, and if they refuses, they should be sent back home. That's it.
Yeah see this is incredibly offensive and racist, SJWs really are the worst people
You're saying refugees are "savages" who don't know better than to rape
They do know better, they know rape is illegal, rape was illegal in Syria and everywhere else
They're just angry/nihilistic, they are not raping out of innocence / ignorance of the law
i don't care who i offend by telling the truth - the truth is there ARE cultures that believe ALL women are property to be used as men see fit, not just women in their OWN country. If that offends you, then you might be one who believes this, or you might be someone who wants to wipe out this belief. And culture has NOTHING to do with RACE.
To be fair, Syria is not exactly such country: Assads, AFAIK, are quite mild in this regard and aren't pushing gender inequality much.
However, Syria is nothing like Sweden, of course; crime rates there are atrocious, and corruption is unbelievable. It is not exactly a stretch to expect a higher percentage of Syrians to resort to rape than that of Swedish people. In fact, Swedish broadcast their achievements in gender equality to the whole world with pride, so they better match this image.
And do you think that an immigrant, from such place, cultured enough to travel here does not know what "rape" is? And even if these people manage to get here, magically, for their crimes to be seen as less severe than native crimes?
In my head, it's pretty simple; rape(or whatever other criminal action) committed by a native is as severe as rape (or whatever other criminal action, matching the first example) committed by an immigrant\visitor\refugee\whatever.
Making excuses for criminals and painting one of these acts with a lighter brush is just ludicrous to me.
'Our' country, 'our' rules; It doesn't matter the least whatever these criminals believe to be right or wrong, or what is a crime and what isn't. A crime is a crime, done by whomever it is.
And if it's no excuse, why bring it up? It's obviously an excuse, even if not a legally one and a mere morally excuse - because these poor criminals know no better, so it's understandable (to a degree) that they do crimes.
Yeah, no thanks!
why bring up ANYTHING at all? because it helps people to understand and find ways to help each other - if you did not understand that a bee doesn't realize it doesn't need to sting you, you might try to wipe out all bees instead of just trying to avoid being stung by bees...but you seem to not care about understanding other people, only about controlling them...

Are you saying... these refugees think all women are objects to be raped? You think their culture allows men to just rape all women?
Are you serious? You're actually comparing them to animals
That is one of the most offensive things I've ever heard
Your casual racism is pretty disgusting

again, CULTURE has ZERO to do with the color of your skin, its about your communities belief system
and my metaphor is about UNDERSTANDING others, i just used an animal as an example
but you just wish to be offended, not try to understand, so i understand why you are having issues
I get it, you're an Islamophobe (which indeed isn't technically racism)
You're still saying refugees are like animals and come from a culture where raping women is normal (spoiler alert: it isn't and they don't) - they're just "savages who don't know better"
You just dehumanised them utterly, took away all their human agency, it's disgusting and bigoted of you to think that way
