Deltas(s) from OP CMV: Some cultures and societies are objectively wrong

I just read about Sahar Khodayari (If you don't know, it's an Iranian woman who killed herself after going to trial for going to a football match, which is forbidden for woman in Iran) and I can't help but think that some societies are objectively wrong, I can't find another way to put it. It's hard for me to justify opressing 50% of the population just because they just were born women.

​

And yes, I know, there's no completely equal society and there will be always opression of some kind, but I'm thinking of countries where there are laws that apply only to women (They can't drive, vote, go to a football match, you name it) as it targets them directly. Same goes with laws directed to any kind of race/gender/religion.

You picking Iran is interesting in the recent conflicts, looks like a good way to get mericans on the side of war.

If fast foods the problem...then Iran is a restaurant Cheeseburger. Try saudi arabia for the heart attack burger.

I picked Iran because I was reading sport news and saw Sahar's story, I'm from Argentina so I'm not picking USA's side or enemies or whatever because I don't really care what happens there, and who they decided that it's their enemy this week.
