"Lebanon bans Snakes and Ladders game from schools because of Pride flag colours"
Urmm...
@olives@qoto.org Crazy.. they could ban anything in any color because it's a fucking rainbow.
@trinsec Once you're paranoid enough to pass a "propaganda" law, you're just looking for shadows in everything, I guess?
It's like those dictators who were worried about women wearing shorts or jeans or something, I can't recall exactly, because it might spread "Western influence".
I suppose "propaganda" is also very vague, if it's due to some law, although it could be just as cultural.
@trinsec To start with though, "propaganda" posits that there is some shadowy person with shadowy scheme out there. This is in stark opposition to the far more mundane explanation of people standing up for their own rights.
Or I suppose, women embracing a higher quality of life, rather than being strictly controlled about what they can do and wear.
So, you're kind of going to get some craziness there, or that's my opinion. I can't really comment that much on this one.
@trinsec Admittedly, I'm not just talking to you, I figured that would be something interesting to add to my feed too, lol.
