>A new decree from the Taliban enabling child marriage is the latest salvo in an ongoing assault on the rights of women and girls in Afghanistan, Amnesty International said in a new legal analysis.
>The Decree No. 18 “Code on Judicial Separation of Spouses”, published by the Taliban in an official gazette on 14 May 2026, codifies the circumstances under which women and girls may seek separation from marriages. It includes provisions that uphold marriages arranged during childhood and restrict women’s and girls’ ability to challenge or leave such unions.
>Prior to August 2021, Afghanistan’s civil code set the legal marriage age for girls at 16, while marriages involving girls under the age of 15 were criminalized under the 2009 Elimination of Violence Against Women (EVAW) law. Afghanistan also had legal and institutional mechanisms aimed at addressing violence and discrimination against women and girls, including family courts, specialized units within the Attorney General’s Office and Ministry of Interior, and a high-level commission tasked with addressing violence against women, child marriage, and family separation matters.
>While these protections were often inconsistently implemented and significant barriers remained, they nonetheless provided women and girls with some legal avenues for protection and access to justice. Today, these laws and institutional structures have been dismantled by the Taliban and replaced with deeply discriminatory and repressive systems that further entrench gender inequality and restrict women’s rights and autonomy.How do we stop muslim pedos from normalizing pedophilia and child marriage in a multipolar world?
Build productive forces, raise the material and economic conditions of women and their emancipation will follow. If you think you can use Western ngos to socially engineer a tribal society to accepting feminism ex nihilo then I am sorry to break it to you but you are suffering from terminal liberalism and don't think in materialist ways.
this is america's fault for destroying the saur revolution in 1979

>>2836858>How do we stop muslim pedos from normalizing pedophilia and child marriage in a multipolar world?You don't. Unless they stop being Muslim. Muhammad, the most perfect human being, was fucking 9yo, so other Muslim men are allowed to do that as well. That's the Sharia law for ya, m8

How come 90% of what modern communists do is just defend the capitalist class and reactionaries of non-western countries.
>>2836858They won the anti imperialist struggle but now they have their freedom the Afghan people must fight for reform and of course socialism without recapitulating to western fedOps, it's a fine line they must walk and I don't think America is going to let their defeat rest.
>implying US-backed Afghan warlords didn't spend the law 2 decades raping kids
does xhe know?
What productibe forces dows child marriage develop?
You teach women to read and give them full autonomy over their own lives.
I see "leftist" PMCs talking about "saving Afghan women" so theres a likelyCIA mission flaring back up.
It’s up to Afghani women to liberate themselves and no one else
>>2837083> the capitalist class and reactionaries of non-western countries.the USA put those in charge in the first place. if you see someone is "defending them" it is usually in the context of the US wants to replace them with someone even worse. take putin for example. he is conservative and reactionary, but the US wanted to replace him with navalny. Why? because navalny wanted to bend over for the western capitalists even more than putin.
>>2836865nobody ever responds when i bring this up. does anyone even know what i'm talking about? is it so well known it's not worth talking to or is it one of those things that goes in one ear and out the other? help me out here.
>>2837021
>you did something that actually helped ordinary Americans.
So true, third world children can be raped so long as it benefits the amerikkkan working class! Vote Platner!
>>2837141
>more progressive
both are reactionary liberal regimes
>>2837136Americas puppet government was still more progressive than this islamic theocracy.
>>2837142One is worse than the other.
>>2837144Probably the US-backed one since it had the backing of the military largest imperial power, the current one is held up by bubblegum and toothpicks
>>2837134Now they work against the CIA so they want them gone and to put in anti China western backed puppets.
>>2837146> the current one is held up by bubblegum and toothpicksSource?
>>2837163- Lost western support
- Started two border conflicts with its previously supportive neighbours
It doesn't have international capital behind its back, all of its weapons are hand me downs from previous occupations.
Leftypol will defend this with moral relativism
>>2837168>It doesn't have international capital behind its back, all of its weapons are hand me downs from previous occupations.Thats enough to stomp out internal rebellions.
>>2837183Certainly not as efficiently and indefinitely as before
I know how it's like living in an islamist shithole backed by international capital, my regime wouldn't have survived this long without direct US support. I doubt the Taliban will survive the turn of the decade, it's already trying everything to invite investors back.
>>2837187>Certainly not as efficiently and indefinitely as beforeMost of afghanistans population arent against sharia and are also tired of war so they wont resist.
And rebels also wont receive weapons or funding from foreign countries.
Thinking it'll collapse on its own is wishful thinking and doesnt line up with historical reality.
>>2837192The Taliban is proletarianizing the population and opening up its economy, this is just your conjecture. The Taliban itself is aware of the historical necessity to adapt.
>>2837197Of course theyll adapt to international capitalism but they wont let go of their islamist beliefs or theocratic rule.
>>2837200>they wont let go of their islamist beliefs or theocratic rule.Yeah just like Saudi Arabia and Iran didn't lol
>>2837201>Saudi Arabia Was never an islamic theocracy but an absolute monarchy in alliance with islamist fundamentalists.
>Iran didn't lolThey never stopped being an islamic theocracy
>>2837203An absolute monarchy allied to Islamist fundamentalists that is in the process of turning Mecca into an open air disco
>IranIran has one of the most secular populations in the region and one of most lively civil societies in the world, the only reason it has tolerated Islamists thus far is because of the ruling class compromising nature.
In both cases materialism is vindicated as the economic base eventually caught up with the superstructure and reshaped it directly (top-down) and indirectly (bottom-up)
Dominate the country economically until the existent backwards culture is stamped out. In a multi-polar world this would be up to China and Russia to do.
>>2837213>An absolute monarchy allied to Islamist fundamentalists that is in the process of turning Mecca into an open air discoThey no longer need to slly themselves with islamic fundamentalists to maintain power in-fact islamism is more of a threat to their power than anything.
>IranIran has one of the most secular populations in the region and one of most lively civil societies in the world
And yet they're still ruled by islamists despite the majority if the populace being secular and liberal shows what chance afghanistan has of naturally getting rid of its islamis rule eventually as you theorize.
> the only reason it has tolerated Islamists thus far is because of the ruling class compromising nature.They dont tolerate it all its forces upon the populace trough force of arms.
>>2837226>ChinaDoesnt give a fuck about anything edcept making money
>Russialol, lmao even
>>2837227Iran's majority secularism is a recent and growing development. We will probably see the end of the theocracy as it currently exists within this lifetime.
>>2837139expand your point or provide some source, not being an ass here, i genuinely have no fucking idea of afghanistan during the cold war
>>2837229>ChinaThat's what I'm saying they just need to make money in Afghanistan until every Afghani works in a Chinese branch office.
>RussiaYou're right
>>2837232Doubtful unless the irgc is somehow disarmed.
>>2836858>rights of women and girlswhat does this have to do with communism?
>>2837244The IRGC itself is distancing itself from the mullahs and in some instances vise versa
>>2837274How would that lead to its disarnement.
>>2837280It won't, it will make theocracy obsolete.
>>2837297Doubtful. They're still shia fundamentalists they irgc just wants to be in charge instead of the mullahs.
>>2836858out of context sensationalism
>>2837301What is the context pal
>>2837213>Iran has one of the most secular populations in the regioncan't believe people on /leftypol/ out of all places would just regurgitate this diaspora propaganda point
>>2837274>The IRGC itself is distancing itself from the mullahsprovide ten concrete instances of this happening
>>2837305Idk They protest against the government every year and have to be put down by force.
>>2837305I live next to them and have friends from metropolitan areas so
Sorry timmy Iranian proles are more organized and educated than you'll ever be. You're not a saviour, in fact we might just save you after dissolving our own bourgeoisie.
>>2837053>Aren't you glad that Leftoids demonized pragmatists as "revisionists" and chose to fight "Soviet social-imperialism" by supporting Islamic clero-fascists? Define your usage of "leftists", or, sorry, "Leftoids".
>>2837070who cares if some tribal ass pedarasts are getting senctioned by coprate no lib pederasts lmao the taliban is not hamas, there is no reason to simp for the taliban at all, hamas are actual freedom fighters while the taliban are a bunch of religious pedos, the us invasion was immoral n shit yeah but that dosen't make the guys that rape and forbid women from reading are any good lmao
>>2837158just boring inter imperialist shithrowing, i dont care if the tribal far right pedophile murderers are are frens with the le hecking wholsome ccp

stop sharing your sexual fantasies with us please, why are you even posting on here and pretending to be a leftoid if you don't even support women having the right to wear what they want, fuck off
>>2837887
"pretty basic Marxism" and its evil pro rape ideology, bro is a evil pro rapist who hates women and is calling themselves a marxist 💀
>>2837875You worship a baby killing and you arent even allowed to say his name so you made up a dumb loop hole.
Thats tour whole religion. God says dont do that you find a loophole. No wonder so many of you are lawyers.
>>2837158>now they work against the CIAconditionally
> they want them gone and to put in anti China western backed puppets.did you pay attention to the images in the post. it included the CIA backed uyghur extremists. watch the video attached and read the images.
>>2837850you guys are the most obvious psy op of all time. if every single change in geopolitics is dismissed as mere "inter imperialist shit throwing" there is no material analysis of the development of class struggle within that context. you glow to the high heavens and you always show up in the middle of conversations to sow confusion between the existing correspondents.
>>2837952i do not care about the geopolitical status of ccp bilonares, i just dont
>>2837340He's talking about China, although calling them "Leftoids" is a bit much since when they jumped over to the imperialist camp they were to the right of the USSR in virtually every way.
>>2837977i can see the value and positives of china distabalizing american dominance, sure, but otherwise i really dont see the value in upholding ccp intrests when it comes to being on good terms with the fucking taliban or trading with israel, i really dont
>>2837143It really wasn't. As others have pointed out, child rape in other forms (especially pederastry) was widespread under that government. It was also obscenely corrupt, completely incompetent, not remotely sovereign, and composed of some of the most viscious criminals and warlords in the world. It had no redeeming qualities whatsoever. At the very least with it gone the people of Afghanistan (which like it or not includes the Taliban) are free to determine their affairs for themselves.
>>2837314so? that doesn't make seculars the majority and both seculars and their zionist backers love to piggyback and takeover any unrelated protest (and ruin it) like they did in december when people were protesting inflation
>>2837848>sanction hurt the ruling class and not the people! SANCTIOOOOONS!kys imperialist lib
