WORLD’S SHITTIEST SHITHOLES

The World’s Most Polluted Cities Are In India

from Niall McCarthy

When asked about the most polluted cities worldwide, most people usually name larger Chinese cities as being the worst air quality culprits. However, according to research published by the World Economic Forum, Delhi is actually twice as polluted as Beijing. The level of PM 2.5 (micrograms per cubic meter) in Delhi is six times above the recommended World Health Organisation maximum.

In fact, out of the world’s 15 worst cities, ten are in India while a further three are in Pakistan. Despite the fact that air pollution has become a massive social and environmental issue in China, no Chinese cities are present in the World Economic Forum’s list of the top-15 worst offenders.

This chart shows PM 2.5 (micrograms per cubic meter) in the most polluted cities worldwide in 2014.

Eight of those Indian cities I’d never heard of. And I’m only 30% as ignorant as a typical American. We import the smartest Indians as doctors and computer geeks – and they’re still not that smart (although they beat the Walmart freaks). A friend in town who is a mortgage loan officer at a big national bank has a personal “one Indian rule”. He’ll only take one Indian customer at a time. Two would drive him crazy. I think his limit on Chinese is two.

Most of are in the Hotel/Motel business. If you travel a lot you realize they own or manage all but the biggest Hotel chains.

Iska, Indian actors we never heard of are well known by billions of folks in India. And American camera whores walk around like puffed up dragons, Meh.

I see more of them appearing on Univision to hype their flicks. It’s the Hispanic market, baby. The folks that everyone forgot – legal aliens. Worse nightmare than a nigger with a badge is a Latino with a ballot. Where’s your fence now, bitch? We ain’t voting for it. (All in jest Iska, don’t get your panties in a bunch).

When you CRAM 1.25 BILLION people in an area this small (relatively) … shithole-ness is the expected outcome.

Hey Stuck, did you see where Rio has a shit beach? San Diego had to build a sewage plant for Tijuana because they were fouling up the ocean.

People are like geese, shitting all over the place. And according to the internet, folks fart 13 times a day. Here in the AV, we are downwind from LA, we get all their farts, oily, greasy, acrid, sour, pungent, morning farts, hangover farts, don’t give a shit farts, we get them all.

HALF the population of India does not have access to sanitation ….. 500 million people shit and piss in the open every day. The place is LITERALLY a shit-hole.

“Why do millions of Indians defecate in the open?” —-> http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-27775327

IMHO, India is THE most disgusting nation on earth.

Thank goodness for the admen that convinced Americans to bathe more, brush their teeth twice a day, wear deodorant, and stop spitting on the sidewalks or blowing snot rockets, otherwise, we might also be pissing in public and sharting at Walmart.

Do you recall AWD’s gif of a Chinky woman surreptitiously taking a dump on the side of a bench? Like the proverbial doggy bag which is not really for dogs, we may have to install more doggy-do stations for ‘dogs’ on the go.

I’m surprised. Conventional wisdom is that USA is the root of all evil in the world. That would include pollution of all sorts. This country really sucks. That is why so many immigrants want to come here ,they want to straighten this hole up.

EMP attack and you will be living in the same surroundings. Birds gotta sing, fish gotta swim and dudes gotta take a shit. Other countries don’t have our proper Victorian standards.

I served as the interim director for a small Christian non-profit that was formerly located in my town that served orphans in India. We had over 1,000 kids in our care in three states in southern India, which is a drop in the proverbial bucket (or dot between the proverbial eyes) given all the orphans in that nation. Most people are Hindu and believe in reincarnation, so suicide is prevalent because they believe at the very worst you come back in your present situation. It’s like hitting reset on your video game console. I had compassion on the children and was proud our organization sent 100% of the donations directly to India, but I also was intent about serving them from here during my tenure and not there. We routinely sent volunteers and donors and all of them became violently ill at some point during their trip.

Stuckey, India is even more disgusting than you ever thought. 100 million of its people are some way involved in human trafficking. That’s 10 percent of the entire population making a living buying and selling people.

This investigative documentary is almost too depressing to watch.

Bea, a lighting strike qualifies as an EMP attack, it fries your electronics, just thought I’d point that out because, like ‘the big one’, the possibility is always pushed out as far as the eye can see.

Also, why do you call it Victorian standards? Americans are more prudish and more hygiene oriented than the English yet you claim it is due to ‘our’ Victorian standards. We’ve never had a queen and don’t have one yet, she is waiting in the wings, though.

I’ve read a couple of stories this year about that Stuck. It seems they have a real problem about shitting in their home so even Indians that are introduced to indoor plumbing still tend to go outside, away from their home.

India, while I’m sure has it’s good points, is not someplace I ever want to visit. You couldn’t get enough vaccinations to protect yourself.

My cousin is “visiting” from Auroville, which is a charter city in India. Here’s the elevator speech:

Auroville wants to be a universal town where men and women of all countries are able to live in peace and progressive harmony above all creeds, all politics and all nationalities.
The purpose of Auroville is to realise human unity.

She bought into it with her life savings, duped by an older man who convinced her that enlightenment was almost within her grasp, if only she would trust him with her money.

So. She now “owns” a place to live there in that community, but can’t sell it, since there are really no possessions. She claims to be achieving her center and inner peace or whatever… I offered her the treehouse to live in, since she seems to be somewhat homeless now that her man friend has left her for a younger woman.

She insists that his leaving is secondary to the many opportunities she finds there. She griped at me for burning plastic and using so much water.

I told her to have a safe trip back to India.

Refugees or immigrants, for any reason, can simply go to China and live in one of their empty cities. There is room for half a million people in brand new cities that have no residents.
