  • Just to be clear, I see polygamy as bad only because of the women oppression aspect. But the world is a big place and history is long, so I wouldn’t be surprised if at some point there was some system that allowed for polygamy without oppressing women. Mentioning mormons - don’t you think they can be seen as another weird different group - and therefore be also object of xenophobia? Notice I intentionally didn’t use the word racism, what I mean is just the sentiment that people doing things differently than my group must be deadly wrong.














  • Ok, I think I understand. You’re thinking of it as a mission with a result that is quite sure - death. I don’t think Greta thinks about it this way and even I don’t think about it this way. I see it as a mission with several possible outcomes, that is very dangerous amd can result in death, but it’s not the only way it can end. The fact we’re talking about it here is a good result already.


  • Why do you think you understand every person who does something like that? People are different, have different views, motivations and visions. Bravery does exist. There are people willing to risk their lives for their ideals without being selfish and proud about it. It’s not always main character syndrome just because you’re unable to imagine any other explanation. The world is more diverse than that.
