Is there any validity to what DonaldTrump said about Somalia? Perhaps Somali immigrants should be infinitely grateful to have been welcomed into the United States.

Suicidal empathy is much more destructive than pacifism. It is the willful destruction of your civilization as an act of moral preening.

I explain how cultural differences implicitly recognize that we are distinguishable from one another (at the cultural level) for better or worse. I provide several additional metrics stemming from Somalia that support fully Donald Trump's assessment of the country.

I conducted an analysis (with the help of Grok) of the Corruption Perceptions Index, which has ranked roughly 180 countries in terms of their endemic corruption starting in 1995. Would you like to guess where Somalia ranks?
