Ghana abolishes death penalty, with expected reprieve for 176 condemned prisoners
As someone from the states, sometimes I'm shocked by how non-progressive the US is.
I wish I could say I was shocked at this point. Ghana also has universal healthcare for all people within its borders.
The US is only considered a developed country because of its military.
@SomethingBurger @WilliamTheWicked GDP and infrastructure would like to have a word on this topic.
Murder is the worst thing you can do. For doing it, we will murder you
So weird
And sometimes we know you didn't do it, but we're going to kill you anyway, because it looks good for our political campaign.
It's the classic metric issue.
A third or so of the country wants America to "lead" and not "follow". So they resist change they percieve as being pushed on them from outside, no matter how logical or beneficial.
I mean there's still a lot of countries in Africa that are just as - or more - regressive about social matters as the US.
