For those not in the know, what's wrong with Uttar Pradesh? Genuine question: I know nothing of the place and I'm curious.
It’s the Alabama of India.
That's actually too harsh a comparison for Alabama. Consenting Incest is not as bad as whatever the fuck is happening there

That poor girl. May her community avenge her.
The article gives barely any details on her rapists. I find that deeply problematic.
well that's a fucking Punisher origin story if i've ever heard one.

According to her suicide note, she dropped out of school fearing for her life. It sounds like she decided to choose her own cause of death instead of having one chosen for her. Very tragic.
