Did we all catch the bride-knapping video?

Since we all RTFA or watch the video, did anyone catch the self-absorbed "I'm just reporting the primatives" bride-knapping video Because we all love Vice I'm sure we all ">watched through to the follow up video ... about bride-knapping in Something-ist-stan. Does anyone want to discuss the appropriateness of alternative journalistic merit in documenting kidnapping and forced marriage ... even in a LULZy way? Because, you know, If Vice was reporting on 1939 Germany it'd be acceptable to have this kind of stuff about the Jews, or the Roma, etc.....

FSCK these people. Laughing at the "primitives" enforcing marriage and slavery ... but, you know, it is all relative and cultural ... let's not upset the locals ... and, by the way ... what a good video!

You are about to be asked to reframe this post, I hope that it happens before a bunch of internet people say bad things about you.

Are you mad because it's a link to Vice, and not Rolling Stone?
