This shit breaks my heart
We're all fairly acquainted with the news of the recent court ruling in regards to the Maria Shahbaz case, her abduction and forced conversion
Heres the thread:

The stuff that has genuinely saddened me about this, is that regardless of identity, gender, religion or location. There are people, people confident and sure enough that the lives of our countries most vulnerable and exploitation prone groups are nothing more than talking points for religious argument and discussion, when the focus instead should be on actually solving these issues which plague our society.
Not everything has to be Islamic to be good, not everything has to be unislamic to be bad, legal, illegal, sharia compliant or not the very fact that it is difficult for a subsection of our population to empathise with these victims without rambling about religion and politics is horrible to see.
