Fuck that's depressing

Reminds of a quote about rape during war time from a writer ... I think it was Vonnegut but I forget

"There are two types of women in war .... those that were raped ... and those that will be raped"

Of all the supposed civilization and modernization that we claim to uphold as a species ... the fact that this is still part of our world means that we are no more civilized then we were a thousand years ago, we just have computers, fast cars and nuclear weapons.

Take stories like this with a huge grain of salt until they're verified by credible international organizations. This genre of story specifically is a classic wartime propaganda tale with not much precedent for being true.

Wild headline, I can't even imagine the horror of living in a country like that.

A couple of years ago, I watched a documentary about the war in Bosnia and how many women conceived as a result of those rapes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIBf48PP9hI
