    According to data from the National Crime Records Bureau, UP recorded over 56,000 cases of crimes against women in 2021 - the most of any state. This includes, rape, rape and murder, and acid attacks.

    What an unbearable shithole.

    I’m convinced UP is the Florida of India. Whenever you hear something crazy out of there, odds are it was Uttar Pradeshman.

      I want to agree but I feel like it might be mostly:

      • Florida makes its crime data much more accessible than most US states
      • UP, if it were an independent country, would be one of the most populous countries in the world

      UP might be the America of the world instead of the Florida of America. Idk tho.

        This is such a stupid take for such profoundly appalling crimes. Forget this ↑.

    My first thought reading the headline: this is Uttar Pradesh, isn’t it?

    Of course it is.

    Before even clicking I guessed correctly -just from the unbelievable cruelty- that this has happened in India. Of course rape is a problem everywhere but Indian rape culture seems to be especially horrific.

        I was just about to say this! I never saw any “xxx country is a shithole” post on Reddit without so much backlash. It was annoying.
