After listening to the Deprogram episode where Hakim talks about Afghanistan for an hour, I can safely tell you that the quickest and most concise way to explain why there is no socialist government in Afghanistan is to listen to the Deprogram episode where Hakim talks about Afghanistan for an hour
The fun part of this one is that "they" refers to like three different groups with entirely different aims lol
Where there's guns, there are women shooting them. The US apparently made a special point to train up women in certain local militias as a kind-of wedge strategy that... well... didn't actually work. But I assure you that there won't be a shortage of women both firing and being fired upon well into the foreseeable future.
Dear liberals, if you're so opposed to the Taliban, why did you put them in power?
Any kind of socialist movement is caught between the Hammer of Corporate Oligarchy and the Anvil of Patriarchal Religious Extremism. Just like in Iran after the '79 Revolution and Iraq after the US invasion and Egypt/Libya during the Green Revolution. I'm sure we'll be telling the same story in Ukraine inside the next decade. The seeds of a reproductive socialist model are easily trampled by competing extremist forces in the West and the Middle East.
If you want a long term sustainable socialist model for Afghani Women, I'm afraid you're going to need to wait on Chinese Communism in Xinjing to bare fruit.
It's a lot more complicated than that. That's always a big issue with having a nation state that covers a wide range of ethnic groups. Infighting will occur frequently and you'll almost never reach a consensus on anything. Africa and Asia's issues revolve a lot around that.
Liberals putting removal spells on the stack against the Taliban and in response the Taliban plays a blink effect, triggering their own enter the battlefield effects.
Okay, now I'll self-report to gamer gulag.
