Lmao. How is it freedom suppressing if they choose to wear it? Look, in my opinion all religions are made up nonsense anyway (especially Christianity) but people are allowed to believe what they want and as long as they're not harming others then what the fuck does it matter? You make it sound they're trying to force nonmuslims to wear their outfits, which they are not. Meanwhile, at least in the US, God is thrown in our faces every which way. It's in our fucking pledge of allegiance. I'd say that's much more freedom suppressing than some women wearing burkinis at a beach. Plus most muslims I've met are wonderfully open and lovely people compared to nasty bigots in Christianity.

I am not going to argue which religious group is better than the others. In my view, they all support fairy tales and want others to respect or even support these tales.
