Some countries literally are shitholes

RE: Some countries literally are shitholes
It's a very big problem, but that's a human act; not a country's act.

For example; people shit everywhere in Sengal.
But in the U.S; there are men and woman who poop in front of the camera and literally eat the shit.
Then again: speaking about brown poop; and forgetting Redneck orange feces, is quite hypocritical.

I worked in Africa for eight years. Most of the people I knew (friends and co-workers) were very clean people. I never visited Senegal but I did work with some Senegalese when I was in Nigeria. The OP’s article seems extreme with the feces everywhere claim. I’ve only been to 14 African countries and I never saw the shit storm described but hey, maybe Senegal is unique in that way?

Andrew Zimmern ate some (infamous) sausage on one of his shows and noted the natural casing hadn't been cleaned . . . .

So, yes, I have seen someone eat poo on prime time cable TV in the US . . .


I also note on Fear Factor, unless the live insects that were consumed (hissing cockroaches and scary spiders as I recall) were given tiny tiny enemas before being snarfed by desperate for money contestants, then those contestants were also eating bug feces (ICK!) inside the live bugs.

Thank you Joe Rogan. So people will eat poo for money in the US too.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Never been to the country in question . Been to other poorer nations . Most of the populus were nice . I have been to wealthy countries and met people i would never wanna meet in a dark alley . Psychopaths are not totally born from poverty .
Seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy -- myself.

I felt invincible overseas.  I have to be home to feel like I need to watch my back.

The issue isn't that Trump used the word 'shithole' to describe the countries in question.  The issue isn't even whether some or all of these countries qualify as shitholes.  The issue as I see it can be split into two parts: Trump's ignorance and Trump's racism.

Ignorance:  Yet again, Trump doesn't seem to grasp what his new job, and even his country, is supposed to be about.  For the best part of two centuries, you lot have held yourselves out as a beacon of hope, opportunity and freedom to people from other countries, people that are having a harder go of it than any of us can probably imagine.  People from Haiti want to go to the US because of how they are forced to live - people from Norway are significantly less motivated to do so.  Sick, starving, oppressed people probably dream of a chance to make it to the US for a shot at a better life.  And they dream that because of what they've been told.  'Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free' isn't just a few lines on that statue - it is the implicit promise that the US has offered for generations.  Trump lack of empathy for people who weren't born with a silver spoon in their mouths is bad enough, but it is even worse, even more demeaning, even more frightening is that he lacks a basic grasp of America's history and image that has made your country a goal for the world's most unfortunate.

Racism:  'Why can't we get more people from places like Norway?'  All he knows about Norwegians is that they tend to be tall, blonde and blue-eyed.  He didn't ask, 'Why can't we get more engineers and scientists?' or 'Why can't we get more people with financial degrees?'.  He wants more people from countries with demographics that are overwhelmingly white.  Forget about a potential immigrant's education, work ethic, criminal history - all that matters to Trump is that they have the proper melanin deficiency.

Ignorant, racist, heartless, cruel and cowardly.  Good luck with him, America.

You made some excellent observations regarding Trump.  However, those observations can also be applied to a large segment of the population from coast to coast and from border to border.  Trump is a Jim Crow baby.  His daddy was a member of the KKK.  One of the KKK's political goals was to have control who became President and they always wanted to have one of their guys in the office.  So now they do even if Trump himself isn't an active KKK member.  

It also pays to remember that America has the very best propaganda in the world.  We can make a sandwich out of shit and convince you that you're eating a tasty steak sandwich.  We've been doing that for the past 242 years.

Every social, political, and financial issue in America is based upon desire to restrict black Americans' access.  This is the main objective even if other segments are also negatively affected.  It's been that way since 1620.  There are tens of millions of examples that can be cited to prove that.  The current dust-up over immigration and DACA is just the latest example of a shit sandwich being sold as a tasty steak sandwich.  Trump is a racist but he isn't the only one.  Congress, State and local governments, and the courts are packed with racists and they are not doing the country any good with their agenda.  There's no steak in the restaurant.

Come on, man. Why look down your nose at the impoverished? People don't openly defecate because they enjoy it, they do it because they have little or no access to plumbing and clean water. 
Didn't you donate to CD's fund raising drive for the homeless? Then why are you looking down on these people?

Stay out of India.  There's all kinds of shit everywhere, from sacred cows and sacred monkeys to 732 million people crapping in the open.  https://thewire.in/197455/732-million-in...ts-report/
