The irony here is that Mia Farrow, as a committed, wholehearted Leftist, would eagerly denounce any criticism of Sharia as “Islamophobic” and “racist,” even in regard to Islam’s treatment of women. But if Sharia can be used as a stick to beat Republicans with, Farrow happily becomes “Islamophobic.”
“Rob Reiner says that ‘Republicans don’t respect women’ — Mia Farrow responds by claiming, ‘They’d be happy to impose Sharia laws,'” by Alex Nitzberg, The Blaze, May 13, 2022
Rob Reiner claimed in a tweet that Republicans lack respect for women.
“It’s simple. Republicans don’t respect women,” Reiner declared.
Mia Farrow replied to Reiner’s post by tweeting, “They’d be happy to impose Sharia laws.”

Nancy Sinatra agreed with Reiner and said she does not understand why any women are Republicans: “Yes, I have thought that for decades, and it’s beyond my comprehension why a woman, any woman would be a republican. Ever – unless she can’t read.”
Another person responded to Reiner by tweeting, “It’s more than that. Republicans clearly HATE women.”
“Republicans fear strong, intelligent, ambitious women,” someone else claimed. “This fact is obvious in everything they do.”
Reiner asserted in a tweet last month that voting for a Republican represents a vote for the destruction of democracy: “It couldn’t be more simple. A vote for Republicans is a vote to destroy Democracy,” Reiner tweeted….
somehistory says
Lauren Boebert, Marjorie Taylor-Greene, Mrs. Trump, Martha Blackburn…”strong, intelligent, ambitious women,”
And, if one openly criticizes the way women and even little girls are treated in mozlum lands….and even in the U.S. by mozlums, it is called racist and phobic against mozlums …by the same people making these claims.
Those same people are all for executing little girls before they can be born. If roe is jettisoned, what will these liars and fools claim then?
Wellington says
Proving again that Leftists are useful idiots, shilling for evil while often denouncing good. Oh yes, and also proving that Leftism is, effectively, a mental disorder as well as indicative of just sheer total ignorance (e.g., Republicans as a whole simply want to return the matter of abortion to each individual state, where it belongs from a strict constitutional standpoint, the 10th Amendment and all that).
To compare Republicans to Muslims who want to impose Sharia is demonstrative of such massive foolhardiness that adjectives escape me. But then there is no low point desperate Leftists will not go to in purveying their idiotic ideas.
Wellington says
“…desperate enough…” and not just simply “…desperate…”
Westman says
Does anyone think Farrow actually knows the life of women in, say, Aghanistan?
These Lefties are not upset about abortion, per se, they are upset that society is again moving toward decency and outraged that it is they who are now, correctly, being judged.
The pendulum of liberalism has aways swung in both directions and has been extended toward hedonism far too long. Today’s liberal society is a rhyme to the roaring 1920s. Then came a depression and a war. Not many liberal attitudes survived them.
Liberals are right to look over their shoulder, their reign is in decline. War on the homeland from foreign powers is on the horizon. The finger of nature – the realities of food, water, shelter, and energy – is writing an epitaph for this liberal cycle. Let’s hope we are still alive to wonder, “What were we thinking!”, when the pendulum has reached conservatism.
When I hear these Leftists complain they sound like their last act will be to curse God before they die.
somehistory says
And, most likely, that is exactly what they will do…as their last act.
Keys says
Yes, Westman and somehistory.
And on the other side from a Christian perspective (if you believe in God, like the Christian God, who is all good – all good!) it seems like many leftists will argue with God, correct him, mock Him, and dismiss Him creating their own selfish hell. These will hate Him, who is Love.
Jesus said, the kingdom of God begins here and right now.
somehistory says
Keys, you are so right. So very right. Remember how Jesus felt when He asked the young man who was “rich” to sell his belongings and follow Him, and the young man walked away? Very right, and very sad.
Keys says
Thanks for your response.
I do remember, somehistory, and I also recall His camel through the eye of a needle message; as well as Him saying to His disciples,“they [the ones who persecute Him and will persecute His followers] do not know the one who sent me.”
somehistory says
All true and all worth remembering and applying. And I believe “rich” can be seen as “power”…those with power over others don’t want to let go of it. Even for Life eternal.
somehistory says
On the topic of those who claim to be women…and propose things like farrow, some one is standing up to one of them
‘Pelosi’s communion ban by San Francisco archbishop over abortion rights support prompts sharp reactions”
“” … By means of this communication I am hereby notifying you that you are not to present yourself for Holy Communion and, should you do so, you are not to be admitted to Holy Communion, until such time as you publically repudiate your advocacy for the legitimacy of abortion and confess and receive absolution of this grave sin in the sacrament of Penance,” the letter states. ” (copy and paste sic)

Yes–things are not completely hopeless in San Francisco. Glad to see it.
GreekEmpress says
Good for the Archbishop!
Wonder if any of the bishops will have enough fortitude to make the same statement to Biden—
somehistory says
Only the ones who see themselves able to stand up to the ‘pope’ because he wouldn’t.
This priest who is denying pelosi, said she ties her Catholic faith to abortion…publicly and is helping to *confuse* others. and some other stuff. He evidently has a spine and a sense of *real* faith and not like pelosi who uses what the Bible says to further her power.
GreekEmpress says
So true, somehistory.

Mia Farrow: Republicans would ‘be happy to impose Sharia laws’ upon women

…………
Yes–so true. The only time you find a Leftist actually condemning “Sharia” is when they claim that Republicans are imposing it.
James Lincoln says
So Mia Farrow is, in effect, criticizing sharia law.
I wonder how this is going to go over with CAIR…
somehistory says
Probably grinding and gnashing their teeth< trying to thing up a response
Roland says
It’s progress when Mia Farrow uses “shariah” as a term of opprobrium!
Pray Hard says
Watched too many episodes of The Handmaid’s Tale. Silly leftist fool.
Infidel says
That movie should be translated/dubbed into Farsi, Urdu, Arabic, Turkish and distributed in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, Turkey, Kuwait, Qatar, Yemen, ‘Palestine’… And marketed as ‘women’s empowerment’. It will be true!

Bizarrely, Margaret Atwood refuses to criticize Islam–in fact, she twice spout apologia for it in the book–the only entity *actually* imposing such horrors. This has nothing to do with Christianity or Judaism as she pretends.
This, from Phyllis Chesler, who makes some good points here:
“Gilead Resembles an Islamic Theocracy, not Trump’s America”
https://quillette.com/2019/10/02/gilead-resembles-an-islamic-theocracy-not-trumps-america/
I don’t agree with her estimation of American during the Trump administration–although is is less unhinged that some on the Left. But at least she mentions the savage misogyny of Islam, which few touch on at all.
tim gallagher says
As far as I can see it is pretty much only people on the conservative side of politics who get stuck into islam and Shariah and all the other primitive crap that Islam contains, so Farrow, like most left wing wankers, is talking complete garbage. These clowns have shit for brains. We have just had an election down here in Australia and the conservative government (though not very conservative) has been thrown out. Lots of fighters against climate change, left wing type fools have been elected, so it’s been a very bad result for the country. Shows a country very fragmented with the votes for the two main parties being down and all sorts of left wing supposed independents being voted into parliament by foolish voters. But, in a democracy, the only decent political system, the population gets the government it deserves. Lots of stupid policies are bound to ensue for the next 3 years which will do a lot of damage.
tgusa says
Every time these leftists open their mouths and spew some of their idiotic opinions I cant help but chuckle. Mia better keep a close eye on her leftist leaders because as soon as it becomes expedient her leaders will toss her under the sharia bus faster than she could say…don’t.
surly curmudgen says
Many of us who are sane would be happy to put those on the far left back in mental hospitals.
Maemae77 says
Sounds like she’s admitting that there are Muslim infiltration on the republican side. Of course there is. Our enemy infiltrates both sides to create division as unsuspecting Americans follow along with the opposing narratives. It’s not the clothing that makes you a Muslim, it’s the mindset that the ideology brings. This shouldn’t be a shocker to anyone that knows about Muslims that infiltrated every aspect of our society. Muslims have been conquering countries for over 1400 years and using the same warfare strategy’s with some changes to adapt to the present by studying our cultures and way of life etc…
OLD GUY says
Yes we live in a world where the individuals radical thoughts are more important and protected than the whole of society. When you protect the rights of some women to KILL a human being with a heart beat prior to birth, and at the same time scream and riot over the execution of a brutal mass murderer something is wrong with your society. And how about the cleric or Imam that preaches the KILLING of anyone who says anything negative about Mohammad and these same women are silent and would defend them. Whats wrong with these people?
Lorensacho says
But she’s right, isn’t she.
gravenimage says
How so, Lorensacho? Where are Republicans keeping sex slaves? Where are they giving themselves woman as handmaids? Where have they banned all religions save their own? Where have they prohibited women from learning to read and write? Where are they imposing pedophila? Citations, please.
somehistory says
How about republicans insisting that all t.v. anchor women cover their faces? Surely no one…no group, no government, no terror org…. would do such a thing?
“ISLAMABAD — Afghanistan’s Taliban rulers on Sunday began enforcing an order requiring all female TV news anchors in the country to cover their faces while on-air. The move is part of a hard-line shift drawing condemnation from rights activists.
After the order was announced Thursday, only a handful of news outlets complied. But on Sunday, most female anchors were seen with their faces covered after the Taliban’s Vice and Virtue Ministry began enforcing the decree.
The Information and Culture Ministry previously announced that the policy was “final and non-negotiable.”
