blows me away that many left-leaning individuals want to help support their backwards culture of misogyny
If you’re left-leaning too, I’d suggest looking at this through the wider lens of European/US Imperialism/Capitalism/Colonialism and how it keeps the global south from making economic or societal progress even after colonialism supposedly ‘ended’ in 1997 (not that long ago). Second Thought, Hakim, and Yugopnik make great videos on the topic.
Religion does certainly play a role in misogyny, but it’s nothing that can’t be overcome in a non-oppressive society imo.
It’s definitely disgusting, but wasteful? I’d argue it’s the opposite since you’re also eating the skin and head.
