The Guardian is at it again.
"Why we need to break the silence around rape and violence against women"
www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2017/jul/11/break-silence-rape-violence-women-bosnia-srebrenica#comment-101890889
There is a lot in the article that I don't agree with. For example:
As in Bosnia, the root of these crimes is the dehumanisation of others – the belief that the perpetrator is superior by reason of sex, race or nationality, and has the right to control, humiliate or hurt their victims
It seems odd to leave religion of the list of reasons for perpetrators to believe they are superior and to dehumanise others, particularly in the Bosnian context.
But my issue is with the Guardian moderation of comments. Apparently, under an article about how we need to break the silence about rape and violence against women, posting a comment about breaking the silence in certain sections of the media about recent grooming gang cases (eg Oxford and Huddersfield) will get you deleted.
Could the Guardian get any more hypocritical?
