Wow this is so dehumanising that even though i live in India , which yall identify as a third world country feels like otherworldly shit !
"In May, Burgess pleaded guilty to a felony charge of removing or concealing human skeletal remains."
They let you hide and steal bodies in India? Guess I learned something new today.
She probably did it coz of the stupid law !
from brasil, if the baby has complication that can kill the mother, abortion is allowed, i guess, in the USA lamb of free, both die, imright??
usa the most third world country of all third world countries
Nowhere in the article is it claimed this was the case. Why are you talking about a completely different situation?
If you have addtional links to information about this case I would be fine taking a look and reanalyzing my position.
If not, please refain from making things up. It pushes people who are more open minded away from your position.
Which was not the case in this situation
Really, you have evidence that supports this? Because the article doesn't say one way or the other.
that why i totally aprove changing how we categorize third and first world countries
Well historically it was based on countries who supported the US and countries who did not support anyone !
Correct.
I don't know any reasonable person that would say the U.S. is a worse country than india. Between the caste system, gang rapes and extreme poverty experience by a huge portion of your population and arranged marriage culture, it'd be tough to convince most.
America isn't perfect, we're a new country with a lot of kinks to work out, but you couldn't pay me enough to get me to move to india.
Well at least we still have affordable healthcare to begin with. Every year americans fly to new delhi to get admitted to Indian hosptials 🥹 coz they cant afford healthcare in their own country!
While one can argue racism in the united states and we do punish rapists here ,for year 2021 , us reported around 200k rapes while india did 20k comparing the population and all , but lets not make a comparison there. The women in india can at least legally abort ( no matter what the reason for not wanting the child is) while arranged marriages are part of culture that some may follow ,you dont have to get into one.
India is relatively new when compared to the US and despite of the abject proverty that you claim , people with minimum wage can still afford to eat and have a place to live ! We arent at mercy of few capitalists , at least not yet ! And please , no one asked u to move !
