How so, specifically? It seems like the only important difference is that in the US such people have much less power, absent that it's just an ingroup/outgroup distinction between our conservative commentators and their radical clerics

how about specifically the thing I keep repeating publicly caning women who dont cover up does that make a big difference? would our christians ever beat ppl who dont cover up?

they don't have the power to do so, but some (likely from the same groups who support the death penalty for abortion) would absolutely attempt to enforce modesty codes if they had the ability to do so.

be specific if they were, say 80percent of the electorate would woman get tickets for wearing skirts? would they get thrown in jail? would they get publicly beaten?

who knows? I mean, you are hypothesizin about what strong believers of an abrahamic faith that don't have that power would do if they had that power. Like, there's only one way to find out, but it gonna be bad

Replying to @turrible_tao @0knaomi and
it would start with throwing things, not beating. beating is more intimate, it's something you do to discipline the ingroup, throwing things is better for designating outgroup

the *government*? no, i'm talking about the way ethnoregulatory violence would emerge if the demographics shifted that way, the first people throwing things would be good christian civilian women

Replying to @chaosprime @0knaomi and
do you disagree that the laws a gov does is representative of those kinds of things and a gov that publicly beats woman is different then one that doesnt?
