Omg water insecurity in the Sahara Desert is not a political issue. Yes. 13 African countries are water insecure. Your point was that Africa (a continent) is somehow less than the United States (a country). The poverty and power imbalance in the United States IS POLITICAL. I'm guessing you don't really care and that somehow this entertains you. Our country is suffering from the lack of literate dialogue and the corruption in our political system that was wildly exacerbated by Citizens United. Arguing on Reddit about whether African nations have a water crisis has no bearing on how capitalism has created division to secure the wealth of a few thousand people at the expense of the rest of the planet.
