So first things first- Afghanistan was actually in the Olympics- which is not something new, but people seem to give me this shocked face? Why? God knows. But yes- Afghanistan was in the Olympics. Although they didn't win anything, it comes to no surprise to me as why. The last decade has been filled with war and destruction by Western Powers. So it should be of no surprise that they were undoubtedly beat by Western Powers. What did surprise me- which I don't know why because ignorance is a characteristic of America, especially of Trump supporters- was a specific tweet during the opening ceremony.
This drove me nuts. Along with the constant bombing and deconstruction of the already impoverished country by Western Powers, people like Laura have AUDACITY to compare the number of athletes who had the privilege of not growing up in a center of war.
