In the past year or two, France has doubled down on anti-Muslim policies and the latest is a ban on Muslim women below the age of 18 wearing the hijab.
The government seems to see the hijab as a threat to all the things the Republic stands for.
Believing this to be oppressive, restrictive and misogynistic, many have taken to Twitter to express their outrage.
This isn’t the first time France has tried to police Muslim women’s clothes. It previously banned full-body swimwear and niqabs.
It also banned the slaughter of poultry for religious sacrifice but is okay with the poultry industry in general.
