    Tanzania is cracking down on gay people, and the reason is partly legal (old British colonial law) and partly religious.

    What this tells me is that Tanzania is doing better. Why? Because you're not going to waste precious energy being cruel to gay people if there are more pressing concerns to address, like war or famine.

    Certain things, like democracy and human rights, are not really transferable as knowledge, because they are opinions and are not self-evident.
