They certainly weren't chosen as the winner as a fuck you to racist, no way

Digits of truth.

Banned for too much xp defusing bombs
Anthony Lewis
Afghans are true aryans so no surprise
Robert Gonzalez
I bet you these retards' entire submission was a publicity stunt by some leftist cause, and none of them actually know anything about robotics.
Lucas Miller
Nice clock, Ahmed
Michael Green
Did they apply for asylum in europe?
Ryder Hughes
and they all applied for asylum

>Afghan girls’ robotics team who were denied entry
To be fair, so was this team from the Ivory Coast.
Wyatt Kelly
Mind NOT bringing it to the Whitehouse?
Thomas Rivera
At this point, it probably will improve the Europoor economy, so yes.
Noah Sanders
Kek, I work for alstom on points/switches on railway.
One in thousands, well played user, well.

>those girls will replace you and then build the robots which will take your job and make you starve to death
Deal. Let them all come.
Henry Reyes
I would take it with a 50 kg bag of salt. There's a high probability that they won just because they were from Afghanistan, because they had that history with US denial, and because they were women.
Luke Turner
Apart from being a great factory for memes I think she is actually doing something good.
Cooper Nguyen
They are in Estonia. Not even Afghans want to stay in Estonia.

They didn't win shit.
In the real competition, they placed 114th.
Later, they won a popularity contest (audience vote) in a category that only featured 7 other contestants, despite the fact that more than 1600 robots were at the event.
>The team previously made headlines because their visas were temporarily denied in the run-up to a robotics contest in the U.S. — but they always wanted to be recognized for their work, not for the politics over their travel. Ultimately, they were allowed into the U.S, placed 114th overall and received a medal for "courageous achievement."
>Now, their solar-powered robot has won the "Entrepreneurial Challenge" at the Robotex festival, held in Tallinn, Estonia.
>The challenge was new for Robotex, and it was the only category that the Afghan team entered. It required teams to "present their innovative, working robotic product, solving a real world problem that customers would want to buy." They needed to not only design a working robot, but also create marketing materials to promote it to the attendees of the festival.
>The Afghan robot was named "Harēv," according to Robotex, and it faced off with seven other robots to win votes from the audience.
>That winning robot was "a solar-powered robot that would help small farmers carry out tasks including seeding and cutting crops like wheat," the Thomson Reuters Foundation reports. Three teenagers from the Afghan girls team traveled to Estonia to participate in the contest.
Charles Torres
Maybe they can make Afganistan great again?
Not welcome in USA.
Bentley Anderson
yeah....well there is a certain charitable mentality that europeans things that non europeans deserve everything.

When they got back home they were all stoned to death and their entry failed to explode as planned

So make brown nations great instead of whining and grubbing off us. But no, easier to act like the victim again.

No, seriously...
Can we get a look at the "Robot" that they "Made"?
Or is it just a bullshit story, and a picture of muslim women around an abbacas?
Liam Turner
Everyone knew they'd win. They practiced making IEDs for years
Benjamin Brooks
>Throw money and teachers and sandniggers
>"Look what they did aaaaall on their own!!!"
So tell me, why is their fucking deserts exactly that, deserts? Shouldn't they be living on mars now or something?
Gas.

That's what humans, in general, can do if given ample opportunity.

"The six Afghan girls who were twice denied U.S. visas before President Donald Trump[1] intervened at the last minute, won a silver medal for "courageous achievement" Tuesday at the robotics competition they traveled thousands of miles to attend."

im gonna be honest here, ive been on a robotics team for like 5ish years and that robot in the OP looks like a student built bot, it's extremely obvious when the adults just build the bot.

you gotta admit. it's pretty admirable considering they are from a desert country, where they treat women like trash.
Juan Thomas
Great.
They should use that amazing talent to make their own shithole country better.
Wyatt Wilson
You can bet your bitcoins that this was in absolutely no way virtue signaling by an event funded by the 'European Union European Regional Development Fund'
Sebastian Wood
Don't worry poo.. I expect they'll be stoned when they get home..
Camden Peterson
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand we don't give a FUCK OP
Muslims are filth and their archaic religion deserves to be fucking destroyed. It brings nothing but suffering. I don't give a fuck about the x amount of "good muslims" when the *MAJORITY* fucks everything up for everyone else.
Fuck off and die shill. Sage.
Jayden Kelly
I wonder what their talents will likely be used for back home.
Isaiah James
Retarded to prop up their elections and push to western thought, then deny them entry to a competition, the taliban would slit their throats for doing this. Things like this make me disappointed in the country. This has nothing to do with immigration.
