Notable dark blue bastion of human rights, Israel

  1. [zionist entity]🇮🇱

Ah yes, any main list of "human rights" containing a country livestreaming a genocide at any score higher than 0 human rights deserves to be taken seriously

[–] buckykat@hexbear.net 29 points 1 month ago (1 children)

At the URL listed in the pic they're giving the zionist entity a score of 0.8/1. They list Palestine as "No Data."

[–] hotcouchguy@hexbear.net 34 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Impossible to know what's happening over there

[–] buckykat@hexbear.net 23 points 1 month ago

Impossible to know, and definitely completely unrelated to the zionist entity.

Institute based at [...] Sweden

  1. Sweden🇸🇪

Swedish people are so fucking insufferably smug that they can't even self-aggrandize themselves to a bombastic #1 like the US or Australia would, but instead put themselves at a reasonable and fair #2. Look at me everyone, I'm 99% perfect! and every other country in the top 9 is a Sweden-type country. not weird at all

It's even more insufferably smug when you realize everyone looking at the list seeing estonia at #1 will go "no fucking way" then see Sweden at #2 and automatically move them above the Estonians in their minds.

Does Australia even have any of these freedom democracy human rights indices?

  • exempts forced labor in the penal system from the forced labor people are supposed to be free from

  • accounts for the bourgeois right to theft known as "property rights" but does not account for the rights to housing, food, healthcare, education etc.

  • accounts for freedom of movement, unless you want to enter a country

  • accounts for freedom of religion, expression and association, but not for freedom from discrimination

  • reproductive freedoms and anything gender-related mysteriously absent entirely

See how little it takes to fully measure the rights of our opressors and completely eclipse the rights only needed by the opressed.

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 13 points 1 month ago

Not even, because I bet you it counts penal labor in Bad Countries, e.g. the DPRK

Fun fact around 25% of Estonians speak Russian natively

[–] ourtimewillcome@hexbear.net 40 points 1 month ago (1 children)

also there is literal segregation

This is what Poroshenko did in Ukraine in 2014 (they have even more Russian speakers).

Everything worked out great after that.

I love living in Ireland where the EU is encroaching on our right to privacy and the state is utterly incompetent and doesn't provide a right to housing. The rights of landlords and American and British capitalists are fiercely protected though 🥰

Cuba on place 150, that's ridiculous. Also on any map about human rights, Israel should be a hole, that's been burned right through the map with still smoldering black edges. Evil is so ridiculously concentrated there, that it should explode any scale.

[–] Llituro@hexbear.net 35 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

fun fact, if you read this as "human rights for the bourgeoisie index" it's actually a pretty decent map.

[–] elpaso@hexbear.net 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Mostly agree but USA and Israel should be 30-50 points higher.

[–] VILenin@hexbear.net 22 points 1 month ago

This particular “countries I like” map was made by Swedes who are of course in denial about the fact that their entire continent is a US vassal and have no clue about how power actually works

[–] iByteABit@hexbear.net 35 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Putting people in concentration camps in China is bad

Putting people in concentration camps in the US is good

=> Putting people in concentration camps is good, but only if it's done by the imperial core*

  • the same applies to genocide

Hey at least they got "Free Syria" right, but maybe that's just out of habit by now

Israel just above Mongolia. Mongolia must be really fucked up

[–] hotcouchguy@hexbear.net 39 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Israel at 50 vs Cuba at 84. Cuba must be doing an even worse genocide that I failed to notice, I'll have to look into that, very concerning.

[–] Hexamerous@hexbear.net 44 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Tankies conveniently forgetting that one of the largest and most infamous torture camps in the world are located in Cuba.

Hold on, I'm getting a note...

Virtually the entire West is supporting a genocidal entity while arresting who people to speak out against it, while simultaneously being the champions of "human rights". clown

My glorious homeland Spain 10th position on the list, famously not having political prisoners from the Catalonian and Basque independence movements, or threatening a trans woman with jail for tweeting a joke about a murdered fascist minister from the 70s (the joke was funny too). The socdems didn't even fucking repeal the so-called "mouthgag law" implemented during right wing party rule that severely reduced the rights of protesters and made police violence so much easier.

was that about the first Spanish astronaut lmfao

OOF - wer hats un verraten - sozialdemokraten

The Baltics, where you have unlimited human rights, except if you're a communist or don't think the USSR was the incarnation of Satan.

Our World in Cope is a research foundation that has been consistently providing cover for capitalist global domination in the guise of being some apolitical philantropist org at the end of history by de-politicizing the crimes of the bourgeois (capitalist realism) or outright denying the increase in global poverty.

denying the increase in global poverty

They take credit for decreases in poverty that are almost literally all due to china

[–] selokichtli@lemmy.ml 14 points 1 month ago

Oh, that explains why so many Mexicans migrate to the USA and Canada. They must be fleeing their country to be refugees and enjoy their human rights.
