As bad as things were, I am certain that under the Taleban they will be infinitely worse.

you're certain, are you?
I guess you must really be in touch what an afghani villager wants out of life and what they prioritise. Strange that they've abandoned the karzai so quickly in favour of the taliban, but you know better. I mean, they're muslims and under the taliban, there's law and protection of property and a means of redress that hasn't existed in 20 years of western shitfuckery and they've repeately said that's why they prefer the taliban when interviewed about it, but they're most likely lying. They probably didn't realise that we were just about to make things great for them instead of treating all of them like potential enemies that we can treat horribly or kill with little accountability, it was going to happen any day now....
I see swagatha went all quiet. lucky you were on hand to pick up the slack

I guess all those people desperately trying to get on planes to escape the Taleban, like the people your original post was about, aren’t Afghanis.
I guess the streets are deserted in Kabul because everyone is at home, celebrating quietly.

How do you think the Afghans that didn't actively oppose the post-Taliban government are going to be treated now?
Do you think all will be forgiven?
Are you seriously suggesting that things are going to get better for the majority of the Afghani population now? Just because they all follow the same religion?!
I'm struggling to think of any nations that have flourished under a theocratic government. Can you name any?
The Afghanis were fucked before the Western occupation. They're doublefucked now. I mean, unless the Taliban have had a change of heart and decided that boiling people alive or locking them in cages and watching them burn to death was perhaps a little ethically misguided. I guess we'll just have to wait and see. Maybe they'll just stick to throwing homosexuals from the tops of buildings.
