    In the comments some idiot is quoting the Torah as evidence that Judaism is inherently more tolerant of trans people than Islam and no one is mentioning the Torah is a holy book in both Judaism and Islam

      It is my understanding that Iran covers costs of transition whereas Israel doesn't because their definition of gender dysphoria is too strict. Until earlier this year, Israel authorized only one guy for bottom surgeries for trans women, so the wait lists are very long. In 2008, the BBC claimed Iran carried out the second most sex change operations in the world behind Thailand.

        We should share that factoid more often, learning that muh Iran islamist dictatorship has better trans policies than any of their oh so grand democracies would fry a lot of liberal brain.

            Ok, but still, pointing out that none of the western countries can be bothered to have better trans care than Iran would either make them think or cope and seethe.

      Judaism is inherently more tolerant of trans people than Islam

      Even if that was true that's not why people are opposing what Israel has been doing to the Palestinians you dipshits monke-rage

      Liberals boil it down to being about whether "the Jews" or "the Muslims" are more virtuous and more deserving of sympathy as groups stalin-stressed
