WashingtonPost: NEW DELHI — India’s government has been on a public toilet building spree. Now, it’s trying to shame people into using them.
An aggressive new campaign ridicules those who are no longer poor but continue to defecate in the open — a practice that remains common in rural India despite its growing wealth and trappings of modern life.
Television commercials and billboards now carry a message that strike at the heart of the Indian contradiction of being the world’s fastest-growing major economy and also where relieving oneself in the open is the norm in most villages.
Since Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s “Clean India” mission set a target of 2019 to end the practice, the government built millions of new toilets.
United States should launch a campaign to convince dirty mexicans to flush the toilet paper instead of stuffing the garbage can.
Im afraid to ask what they use instead of a toilet. The ground?
Shit Shaming. I like it.
If we could just get female tourists from India and all nearby countries, to not pee all over the public toilet seats and floors in THIS country, I would be happy.
I guess that would be cultural appropriation though.
Ashes to ashes! Dust to dust! Poop on the ground!
The British Raj pulled up the stakes in 1947 and the coolie niggers are still shitting on the ground. It’s far past pathetic.
Speaking of shit weasels….
Remember that video posted here a few days back of the idiot who crapped on the floor of the store?
I didn’t realize that was a ‘thing’.
Poop pickles…poop pickles everywhere…

We can learn so much from the peoples of different lands and cultures.
“Hell! They didn’t know what a latrine was for till I showed ’em!!” — George C. Scott, “Patton”….
1857 to 1947 and the bloody Raj couldn’t quell the savage heart of the Hind.
1858, really, but 1857 was a year of savagery and righteous asswhippings.
They had a chance to show the world that the Raj was a “… belittlement, a farce, an Imperialistic jingoistic affront…”, alas, they have failed.
Just as everyone knew they would.
You truly have to watch your step while visiting India. It makes rude dog owners here stateside look inconsequential.
You gotta be shitting me!
