This is how white people think. So apparently it is better for people in third world countries to bombed and murdered than raped

Anonymous 1d

So every country does that. Im not for it because that always causes way more assault not only for women but children and disabled people. If youre sensitive to it look up data about assault in warzones

But you’re also killing all the women there… you’re not just bombing the men in charge.

Imma be real with you OP, I’m not politically motivated enough to have a valid vote. But I see why you feel that way… because YIKES.

I voted just to see percentages. That’s wild.

I don’t follow SHIT. I got bills, kids, I have a lot to worry about in my own house. Whatever trump be doin for example.. he’s gonna do it.

Bombing the country would also kill the women

Rape is a crime against humanity, but if you think it’s justification to invade a country your foreign policy might be a lil errr misguided? I’m only saying this because historically everytime America invades a country they instill a far right dictator that’ll most likely be worst for that society. But if there was a country that had better foreign policy then maybe

Anonymous 1d

No it is not the role of America to interfere in other countries. Doing that is exactly how we ended up with so many fucked up countries in the first place

I don’t see how bombing a country would change anything. Bombing countries doesn’t help anyone. Like yes, it’s wrong to not do anything when this large of a problem presents itself but please tell me how bombing them would make it stop? Unless you completely eradicate a group of people, which is genocide, then bombing won’t really fix the issue.

Also we would be far better served getting our own rape problem under control. How are we gonna send soldiers to fight rapists when a lot of them are rapists themselves (source my family comes from a military occupied island with a ridiculous rape problem from the occupying soldier, which is still having rape cases to this damn day)

Anonymous 1d

No. You would be bombing those women too. That’s not helping anything. If you want to help, let’s try and fix the government, not kill a bunch of innocents

Anonymous 19h

I mean would that not just result in killing the women there too 🤨

Yeah but rape is worse than murder, the women have to live in fear if they were left alive

Like how would bombing smth and destabilizing that society HELP a governments ability and prioritization of protecting womens rights? Bombing in general does nothing but destabilize a country i truly do not get this wuestion

Anonymous

Well if a country is not already prioritizing human rights then they deserve to be destabilized. Look at Israel vs palestine war. Palestine had no rights for women and LGBTQ people

Are you arguing palestinians are deserving of genocide because their contemporary governance structures arent woke? How do you suggest bombing would help somewhere to start protecting womens safety if bombing makes women significantly more vulnerable

Anonymous

You can’t just commit genocide because you don’t like a counties laws

Like trolling aside the whole concept of deliberately killing and making women more vulnerable because the powerful (who would not suffer as badly from the bombing) created the structure that makes women already vulnerable??

Idk what you’re arguing here. Like Israel does allow women in the military compared to Palestine were women dont have many rights at all

Of course thats what happens when you force apartheid on people. How many women and children do u think the idf rapes? Its a deliberate tactic

Anonymous

#5 1d

They don’t, idf allows women to fight alongside men. And those women in Palestine are enablers of men’s bad behaviors

Israel and Palestine has nothing to do with women rights, it’s a war over religion

It’s just more division bait. Same shit you see on every social media nowadays. Don’t fall for it, the world is stronger together than divided
