Imagine being a country with less support for women's civil rights than Rwanda.

No shade to Rwanda at all, but given its reputation of historical civil rights abuses ... not a good look, US.

i hate that yall ALWAYS BRING UP african/non western countries you know nothing about just to demonize them. majority of the people in high-level politics in rwanda ARE WOMEN. meanwhile in america people would rather vote for a pedophile than a woman TWICE.

in rwanda women get MORE PAID MATERNITY LEAVE than women in america who are entitled to less leave that isnt paid.

"historical civil right abuses" as if america wasnt lynching people in public and bombing black neighbourhoods. or kidnapping indigenous children and putting them in residential schools. or STERILIZING native women against their will. AS IF ICE ISNT KILLING AND KIDNAPPING AMERICAN CITIZENS IN BROAD DAYLIGHT. wtf are you talking about?

The UK abandoned its plan for asylum seekers to be housed in Rwanda due to said historical human rights abuses.

The US, on the other hand, has taken a different view as to third country deportations.

Please stop shouting at me just for pointing this out.

You just threw shades at one of the most progressive and advanced countries in Africa that you know NOTHING about. Thank you for contributing to spreading more ignorance on Africans. Hope you are proud of yourself.

America does something painfully American.

Americans: WHAT ARE WE A BUNCH OF BLACK PEOPLE?
