    Under pre-ISAF taliban the literacy rate was about 15% and at the time of withdrawal it was almost 40%.

    The biggest red flag of this post, to me, is the use of the word Afghani. Any time someone says it with an ‘i’ at the end, you know they don’t know what they are talking about. Afghani is a currency, Afghan is a person.

    Correlation is not causation, right?







  • I’m finding I’m using youtube less and less that I can’t actually remember the last time I used it for anything. Youtube has so much crap now.

    Because of their monetisation scheme for content creators, it was profitable for creators to drag 15 mins of information out to one hour, and then to include shock faces as thumbs to get more clicks, and then to get more viewers just to watch a bit of the video as viewership dwindles into just mindlessly watching suggestions.

    I feel sorry for those creators who have gone balls deep with youtube content and who have no “plan b”.
