I don’t think the primary bad guys in the “mass Congolese rape” story are American taxpayers who don’t want to subsidize the entire third world’s healthcare. I think they’re the Congolese rapists.

Heartbreaking story about women and girls raped in Eastern Congo who can no longer get medication to prevent HIV transmission, because of Trump administration's USAID cuts: https://www.washingtonpost.com/w… Careless men in DC make decisions, and Congolese girls suffer.

The statement engages in public discourse by addressing the issue of U.S. foreign aid and its impact on healthcare in the Congo, specifically in the context of HIV/AIDS funding. It challenges a claim made in a previous conversation, providing a link to a government website as evidence.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement does not appear to cause harm directly, but it could be seen as accusatory, which might indirectly cause harm if not substantiated.
  2. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    The statement does not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech, but it does accuse someone of lying, which could be seen as disrespectful if not accurate.
  3. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    The statement attempts to promote understanding by providing factual information about foreign aid, but the accusatory tone may undermine empathy and compassion.
  4. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement engages in dialogue by providing evidence to counter a claim, but the use of 'flat out lying' could be seen as a personal attack rather than constructive criticism.
  5. Principle 5:
    I will acknowledge and correct my mistakes.
    The statement does not acknowledge any mistakes, but it does attempt to correct what it perceives as misinformation.
  6. Principle 6:
    I will use my influence for the betterment of society.
    By addressing the issue of foreign aid and its impact, the statement uses its influence to highlight a societal concern.
  7. Principle 7:
    I will uphold the principles of free speech and use my platform responsibly and with integrity.
    The statement upholds free speech by providing information and a source, but the accusatory tone may detract from responsible use of the platform.
