I can't help but take stock of the fact that this degree of political agency would not be afforded to Muslim women anywhere in the Muslim world (let alone to women from minority religions in those countries), and probably not in many other places within the west either. 2/5

Maybe some degree of gratitude on our part is in order, even if might be (greatly) outweighed by the degree of righteous anger which is also in order. And to be fair to the Squad, they often venerate America too - perhaps even too much! 4/5

But there's another concern here too. In railing against or reforming America too much, we may end up killing the goose which lays the golden eggs. That is, end up undermining the extent to which it accords political agency to women and members of minority religious groups. 5/5

As an aside, this may also be a good demonstration of how pluralist liberalism may accord more freedoms than rationalist liberalism. Laïcité, in its drive to supposedly enhance freedom and equality, may deprive Muslim women of their political agency.https://twitter.com/Evollaqi/status/1208816109790670853?s=19 …
