13 days agoNot sure where I stand on this issue, but I am leaning towards that it shouldn’t have been removed for being “offensive”.
Anyway, on a slightly related topic, hijab is a pretty complex issue. It is both a symbol of religious freedom, and of religious oppression. In many parts of the world, women are forced to wear it, and in some other parts of the world, women are forbidden from wearing it. Even in places that have more freedom wrt this issue, women might be forced by their families to wear it.
Not sure if thats what you meant, but yeah, cars used to be made “stronger”, until it was realised that they are more fatal that way. Theres a reason most modern cars crumble up quickly in an accident, and that is because the crumbling absorbs energy from the impact, helping the vehicle slow down and stop without damaging the passenger. If the car didnt crumble, the energy has to go somewhere else - this could go to the passenger, flinging them through their window.
