@brightlights :
Omg! The Middle East is pretty biblical in its violence.

@brightlights :
They still stone women, too.

@justanirishgirl : To other parts of the world, it seems barbaric and overkill. To them, normalcy.🫤

@brightlights : China does it too.And yet there are some who think America is so bad right now. They need to go live in these other countries. They don't know what bad is.

@Catmae :
I don't believe in the false narrative that if people find things less than ideal in our own country, just take a look at some other nation. Two things can be true at the same time. One can say we have bad leadership here, while also acknowledging that in some other countries, things might be worse there. By our Western standards or moral bent.Keeping in mind that everyone lives within their own bubble. For example, why do rich people either want to commit, or have committed suicide? Those of us that don't have silver spoons look at them and think they're out of their freaking minds! But we can't live each other lives. We can only live our own. And apparently, misery and sadness are no respecters of economic circumstance. Nor political systems or borders.

@rocket1 : What? Whose false narrative?I really don't feel like getting into a long, drawn-out argument with you today, but sometimes that huge chip on your shoulder is distracting.

@Catmae :
I was speaking in a general sense. As for the chip on my shoulder. I dunno. Perhaps a false narrative?

@West-Tex

Barbaric? Yeah, not the bar to judge America against though.They still behead in public in some countries
