Fact check: The people of Afghanistan wanted the boot of the Taliban on their necks. They practically pleaded for it. So, I have not fucks to give for that Nation as they deal with the fallout from their own choices.

1. Summary of the results

The original statement is contradicted by multiple sources which provide evidence that Afghans did not universally welcome or "plead for" Taliban rule. Specifically:

• Only 13.4% of Afghans expressed sympathy for the Taliban by 2019 ^[1]
• The takeover was marked by fear, displacement, and violence in many areas ^[2]
• While some areas saw peaceful transitions, others experienced intense fighting and civilian casualties ^[2]

2. Missing context/alternative viewpoints

The original statement overlooks several crucial aspects:

• The situation was highly complex and varied by region - some areas surrendered peacefully while others fought fiercely against Taliban control ^[2]
• There was a strong urban-rural divide in responses to Taliban rule, with particularly strong resistance in urban areas ^[2]
• The "overwhelming majority" of Afghans supported:
• Women's rights
• Freedom of speech
• The constitution
• (All from p3_s2)

3. Potential misinformation/bias in the original statement

The statement contains several problematic elements:

• It presents a grossly oversimplified view of a complex situation where responses varied significantly across regions and demographics ^[2]
• It ignores documented evidence of widespread resistance and fear among the population ^[3]
• It disregards the documented human rights violations by the Taliban, including:
• Severe restrictions on women's rights
• Public floggings
• Executions
• Suppression of civil liberties
• (All from p3_s2)

The statement appears to be attempting to justify indifference to Afghan suffering by falsely claiming the situation was universally welcomed by the population. This narrative contradicts extensive documentation of diverse experiences and widespread opposition to Taliban rule across Afghanistan ^[3].
