No it doesn’t. Stop trying to patronize a country’s dire situation to push your false narrative.

Pakistan is a sad tale. A country of 200 million+ with almost no future. The elites are busy milking what’s left of the country before it flames out. The idiotic IMF continues giving them loans to support the extremely corrupt system..the U

That was the aim always. To disadvantage the poor and middle class by disguising under “equality” and “diversity”. Two-faced hypocrisy at its peak.

Typical excuse for African nations run by morons elected by an equally moronic populace. Many formerly colonized countries achieved unprecedented levels of success. But in Africa where corruption and tribal violence is hindering development

I wonder if Ethiopians can also survive by giving up all the elements invented in the Western and Asian world…they can’t. Ethiopians inventing a few things here and there is of no use if it’s a country where the majority lives in poverty be

Of course a country’s capital will always be relatively developed. But Addis Ababa contains less than 5% of Ethiopia’s population…the majority live in horrible conditions.

All those so-called contributions, yet they can’t save themselves from a $925 GDP per capita and 69% of people being classified as “multidimensionally poor” [1]. Ethiopia is a typical useless African nation marred by excessive corruption an

The US government already has enough money for these things. They refuse to do it because the citizenry isn’t in support..

You mean rapidly experimenting and innovating to cut costs, unlike the competitors who don’t have the guts to do that and constantly rob the taxpayer blind?

What a callous article. It seems the author is angry that a bunch of people came together to fund a company that failed in the end...well, most startups fail anyway. > Such journalism is a direct reflection of millionaire or billionaire

Yes we can and protect kids from the real world in many ways, but I believe it should be parents and families handling that, not the state. Social media is a net negative to adults in my opinion, not to talk of children.

The largest communication platform will inadvertently be the largest for nefarious activities. Parents should work on keeping their kids away from social media, what’s the point of a kid having a Facebook or Instagram anyway?

Hell no, if I start a company, I don't want any random clown to be able to purchase shares in it and start influencing my business. Most businesspeople think the same.

How would it feel for someone who was born deaf to suddenly start hearing? Do they start getting irritated by everyday sounds? I’m really curious ..

It's almost impossible to enforce sanctions for everyday products in a globalized world. As long as there's money to be made, there's always someone willing to skirt sanctions to make a buck. Prosecutors end up playing whack-

No, it’s worse at the top levels in Africa. Show me where American and European legally steal public funds and siphon it to their offshore accounts.. I really get tired of moral equivalence.

As someone who comes from a third-world country (Nigeria), I’ll trade some liberty for safety, a stable society, and prosperous economy at any time. But I guess it’s different for Westerners that already have a lot of liberties and material

Just when you think private companies are already sucking enough the last dime out of healthcare… Anyways, the non-profit hospitals already engage in price gouging, the for-profit companies might as well take part.

I think so too, but we should also understand that authoritarians are not rational. Before February 2022, I would have bet a big sum on Putin never authorizing a full-scale Ukraine invasion. There was just too much to lose and too little to

Remove Russia from that list…the Ukraine war has shown that the Russian military are chest-beating clowns tainted by massive corruption and incompetence. I kinda suspect China is the same, but we’re yet to see, and hopefully never see any i
