According to the debate, they had their reasons. But still -- when one hundred and eighty six nations say one thing, and two say another, you have to wonder about the two.

No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

American Samoa isn't a country. It's a US territory.
A lot of those others aren't countries either. Tokelau "belongs" to New Zealand. Niue and Cook islands are legally shaky as well.
The population for all combined above the US, compared to the entire US population is ridiculously low, and I feel like this is to distract from how massive the obesity issue is in the US. When excluding what are basically territories and at most micronations, the US has the most severe obesity issue.
