A lot of the male refugees from Afghanistan are those who were associated with the previous government or who assisted the United States, and are being targeted as such

Ahh yes, try and change things in the place where speaking out against the regime gets you killed just like being a woman does.

As you sit in your cozy room in America expecting other people to die for something nearly impossible. Women could take up arms too. But you recognize that it’s not practical to expect them all to die for a cause with little hope of succeeding. Why is that different for men. Why do you think men have a moral imperative that women do not?

A lot of these men *did* stand up and try to oppose the Taliban. They were part of the previous government or assisted the USA. And it fuckin failed. And now they’re being hunted for it.

That's incredibly sexist. Women are just as capable of fixing societal issues as men

The Afghan refugee fleeing to Albania is not the one doing the oppressing. He is also being oppressed, hence why he is fleeing the country. The Taliban isn’t just a misogynistic movement. It is also a Pashtun nationalist movement. Hazara men are oppressed for being Hazara, even though they are also men.

You’re also assigning collective responsibility to all afghan men for the oppression done by some afghan men, and saying that therefore they need to futilely die to try to stop it, as if you aren’t an American, and as if that therefore wouldn’t implicate you in global oppression too. Afghans should confront misogyny. Americans should confront imperialism. But I don’t expect you to die trying to stop it.
