there is no “cover of marriage”
https://www.girlsnotbrides.org/learning-resources/child-marriage-atlas/atlas/nepal/
33%of Nepalese girls are married before their 18th birthday and 8% are married before the age of 15.

Team America World Police wasn’t a parody.
US Good
China Evil
Nepalese residents will be infected with the insidious Chinese Mind Virus if they watch too many Chinese girls putting on make-up or C-Pop Boy Bands do the sissy-hypno dance. Then their society will collapse and China will be free to roll in the tanks. This is just like how China conquered the countries of Hong Kong, Tibet, and Tienanmen Square.
it’s Chinese spyware

so for nepal human trafficking and polygamy is in the same category of “wrong activities”.
There’s a substantive degree of overlap, particularly in parts of the world where young women are sold by desperate parents and criminal cartels for the pleasure of old perverts. This isn’t Sam Bankman Fried and three if his closest money launderers in a sex pile. This is cloaking sex trafficking under the cover of marriage.
I have seen it’s true face. Social media is an extended gutters and the gutter is full of ads and when the drains finally scab over all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their pop-ups and clickbait will foam up about their waists and and all the reply guys and soy boys will look up and shout “save us!”… and I’ll look down and whisper… “No.”
It is well established that Hamas is using civilian areas and infrastructure
Established by whom?
Can you tell me why Hamas gets carte blanche but others such as Ukraine are criticized in similar circumstances?
On what planet has Hamas received carte blanche? Gaza is currently being carpet bombed. This is exactly what Russia did to Kyiv in the opening days of the war, and it seems clear that Israel and Russia are running identical playbooks. Mass murder of the population as a form of ethnic cleansing is now the standard military doctrine of encroaching powers.
Trump would very much be worse for Gazans than literally any Democrat.
I’m hard pressed to see how. Obama was at least milquetoast on Israel carpet-bombing Lebanon, but Joe Biden clearly does not give a fuck and has done nothing except to enable the Netanyahu regime since he took office. There’s very little more that Trump could do that would be worse than what Biden’s already endorsed now that we’re in fully on ethnic cleansing mode.
Trump moved the embassy to Jerusalem lol.
We’ve been cutting checks on the order of $4B/year to the Israel government to arm up against its neighbors since the Bush Jr administration. Trump moving the embassy did nothing substantive. What really changed was the Israeli internal policy of arming settlers in the Golan Heights, which inflamed tensions in the West Bank, while tightening restrictions on import/export trade in Gaza to the point of actively starving out the population.
This, while Netanyahu undermined the Palestinian Authority in order to push more local support to Hamas
In August 2019, former prime minister Ehud Barak told Israeli Army Radio that Netanyahu’s “strategy is to keep Hamas alive and kicking … even at the price of abandoning the citizens [of the south] … in order to weaken the Palestinian Authority in Ramallah.”
The logic underlying this strategy, Barak said, is that “it’s easier with Hamas to explain to Israelis that there is no one to sit with and no one to talk to.”
Neither Obama nor Trump nor Biden has made any material effort to discourage these policies. Unlike Reagan in 1982 (fucking Reagan of all people!), who threatened to withdraw support from Israel unless it backed out of Lebanon, no President of either party since appears interested in reining Israel in.
Twitter has already moved in that direction.
