No. It’s nowhere near similar to a government ban. It’s ONE company that has chosen not to support rape culture. Plenty of other retailers in France still sell hijabs, including Nike. The govt is not involved. No one said anything about removing it ever.https://twitter.com/jordanreiter/status/1101270461554573313 …

No sorry I'll admit the analogy is a bit muddy. And that hasn't really been my argument. It's more that efforts to restrict access to hijabs via things like death threats or boycott campaigns is unlikely to bring about the actual necessary structural change.

It’s not restricting the hijab. Muslim women have been wearing hijab the past 1400 yrs without Decathlon. It has zero impact on that. The impact it has is making a statement that they are deciding not to support or legitimize rape culture.

Also my reply was a bit flippant and unnecessary and I'm happy to delete it if you want.

That was the least flippant and unnecessary of all your tweets that Ive read, tbh. Since you’re asking my opinion, everything you’ve tweeted on hijab needs to be deleted. You had no understanding of hijab in general nor the issue w Decathlon specifically.
