Dozens were killed last week when the military bombed a camp for people displaced by decades of conflict.

    Full disclosure, I have a personal angle on this as my daughter-in-law is a Burmese national.

    If I over-post on it, feel free to call me out on it. :) I may annoy you accidentally, but never intentionally.

    Side note: Burma or Myanmar? That was the first question I asked her and she said nobody cares. It’s like the difference between “America” and “USA” or “U.S.A” or “U.S. of A”. Nobody feels that strongly about it.

      Don’t worry about that! We love you.

      What’s happening in Myanmar right now is absolutely terrible, and it is literally black and white as to who the bad guys are. Despite that, no country is willing to help the rebels. Bringing awareness to this situation is absolutely essential. Fuck the junta!
