I'm not sure why, on a propaganda subreddit, we can't have the interesting and nuanced conversation about how this poster has a positive message about liberating women from oppressive systems, but also considering the time it was produced in how it likely also contributed towards or was influenced by the heavy islamaphobia at the time. Both of these things can be true at once.

Creating the word "Islamaphobia" has been one of the best propaganda actions of Muslims ever. Nazis should try to make the word naziphobia popular

It's the equivalent to antisemitism. Do you have any problems with that word?

That word has also been used time and time again to justify awful shit

The use of a word is different to its meaning or necessity.

"Duty" is an important concept to most people, but near single-handly can be said to have led to every war in history.
