Is it not illegal in Russia?

I think Nex used they/them. Knowing Oklahoma they aren't gonna look into this anymore at all. It's already a very backwards state when it comes to respecting human life, the fact that they were non-binary essentially means that there no chance Oklahoma is taking this seriously.

Even if a concussion didn't contribute being non-binary in as hostile a place as OK can't have helped. As long as these assholes are in charge kids will continue to die (and not just Trans kids, it's not a picnic being any minority in Oklahoma).

Is that a Tardis blanket?

The US military (all branches) has just over 600 flag officers. If Russia has 1000 that's still a massive difference between the loss rate. (.16% vs .9% or 139% difference) Also the US military also has logistics generals, not sure where you were going with that, could you please expand on it?

I'm not a numbers person so my math may be a tad wonky but that still looks like a significant impact.

If your just saying the army then the US has 218 as a max number of generals. 1 loss is almost .5% (.45%) of their numbers in 23 years. Russia lost almost 1% (.9%) in 2 years. At that pace in 23 years they should expect to lose almost 103 generals or over 10% of their flag officers.

That's a rate of .5% of generals a year. The US is averaging that in 2 decades.

I don't care how top heavy they are; 1% is an impactful amount of flag officers to lose in a year. Even if the impact is only to morale.

For context, Russia has been at war with Ukraine for almost two years. They have lost 9 Generals. The US was in Afghanistan for two decades. We lost 1.

9 is a fuck ton of senior staff in 2 years.

The young population is really high in Gaza too. You often see that with poor nations.

Not to bang on about this but, how are you building the infrastructure to get reliable internet (that the men won't let women access anyway) to remote afghan villages that don't even have running water?

I think you're wildly under estimating the control men have over women there. You also may be under the impression it's just the government trying to control and crush these women, it's not. The average man in Afghanistan is not only complicit but active in subjugating Afghani women. This isn't about lack of access to education, it's about lack of personhood and autonomy for women. Afghanistan has education, women just aren't allowed to be educated.

Edit: so I just realized you're probably really young given the solutions you've proposed. (I reread and suggesting to send a full family/guardian can only be someone young or a troll.) I apologize if I'm coming off really harsh. The reality is just that men are actively trying to subjugate/control/own/deny basic human rights to women in some of these countries and your comments completely missing that got under my skin. My apologies.

This solution sort of implies that the Taliban would allow it. Like the whole system over there isn't designed to crush these women as a form of control. It's not a lack of ability to educate them this is by design of their government.

For a visa like this to work you'd need the government and the Men of the country to be in agreement with it happening. That currently isn't the case. Providing a visa that almost no one will be able to use even if they wanted too would not only not help but could easily be something that's pointed to as "we're already providing a way for them to get educated and we don't have to do anything else."
