    Should the West tolerate oppressive and discrminative belief systems or should they be banned?

    Comunism for example is a belief system that is considered oppressive.
    There are some religions too which incourage gender discrimination and also approve of domestic violence.
    Why should or should not be those belief systems tolerated?

    Freedom does not mean one has the political or religios right to oppress the other (IMO).

    Intolerance is oppression.

    I don't think certain things should simply be accepted; it's PC BS gone mad.

    Allowing people to practice parts of their religion that don't harm anyone else = good.
    Allowing people to practice parts of their religion that involve violence, trying to fuck up another country, mutilating young girls genitals = bad.
