  3. Now step it up with women's rights and stop female feticide/infanticide. Enough of that cultural relativism shit, women's rights are universal.

  4.  @pooja_lokhande I am talking about gender situation nowadays. I am fully aware of European atrocities against women and girls in the past. All the information I was reciting came from people of Indian descent, not White Europeans. Why would you or any woman choose loyalty to your culture over your personal rights. How do I know you are telling the truth. Maybe you are one of those people who out of cultural pride downplay the problems in their society. You cannot improve if you continue to deny existing problems. I am personally from Eastern Ukraine and I am the first one to acknowledge severe social problems in my country of birth. When someone tells me about corruption, violence, alcoholism, suicide, poverty and prostitution in Eastern Europe I do not get defensive and scream "You have been brainwashed!" I say "You are right."

  7. And therefore you should respect them looting your land, otherwise you are a racist. Just like, although I am a woman, I should respect Indian sexism, forced marriage and female infanticide. Otherwise I am a white supremacist. Respecting oppression is new progressivism. Fighting for universal rights of women, gays and children is now a form of racism. Fuck regressive left!

  11. And what do so many of you do with female fetuses and infants?

  12. Their social cohesion is created through oppression. It is not based on people getting along but on some groups oppressing others and suppressing dissent. I bet you noticed a lot of unjust things going on that would not be tolerated in the West, but looked the other way because you did not want to be a white Western supremacist.

  13. Human rights, free healthcare, relatively low corruption index. Why not?

  14. Effectively it is still a slavery.

  15. But it is the West that developed concept of women's rights.

  16. Cultures that support women, gay and children's rights (Western) are better than those who oppress them (all the others).

  37. It is not poverty, it is greedy-ass klepto public servants. They stuff their pockets w the tax money that is supposed to be used to build more amenities.

  38. Shitting in public is due to the lack of proper toilets. You can only blame people for public shitting if they have access to toilets. Do you really expect them to hold it all inside their whole lives?
