How dare you criticize sharia in a lemmy.ml community you liberul??? The only thing that Iran is guilty of out of all the stuff that you listed is that they have mandatory clothing laws, but it's really just a cultural choice really, you're just brainwashed by the West's Divine Secular Absolutism which allows people to dress... freely😱😱😱. And 9 y.o. children getting married isn't a state policy you propagandist! It's just legal, that doesn't make it a state policy now does it?

And you're wrong!!! Women are allowed to drive in Iran. They just can't leave the country or anything without her husband's permission, and make sure that her hijab is not loose or she might get killed by state police.

I hope with the replies of Lemmy's beautiful Erdoganists, you have come to realize that Iran isn't a shithole Yet Another Middle Eastern Reactionary Shariah, it's a Far-Left Utopian Theocracy.

TLDR: Just switch to Lemmy.World's c/privacy ffs
