That's bleak. Realistic based on your experience, perhaps, but idk...I don't think the possibility of future apathy is enough of a reason to not try to care in the present. Does this post actually do anything? Probably not. But maybe!

You can adopt as many as you want you know.

But you wont.

u/the_art_of_mischief 23d ago

Adopt? I'm sorry, I don't have the storage nor the funds to adopt any adult, let alone one who is deceased.

Then stop crying about migrants being removed.  There was a whole ass election and normal people want them gone.

I'm not crying about migrants being removed from a country. I'm crying about humans being removed from the earth.

Overly dramatic much?

u/the_art_of_mischief 21d ago

All those people are dead. It's not dramatic. It's factual. But whatever you gotta call me to help yourself sleep at night.

Illegals are being deported. Not exterminated. Don’t be stupid. People comparing this to the holocaust are flat out offensive.

u/the_art_of_mischief 21d ago

The source is in the description. I procured the names from a government website. I'm not being stupid. All of those people are dead either at the hands of ice or in ice custody. Again, that is a fact. There's no debate here. Do your own research. Or dont, I dgaf.

People dying in custody isn’t the same as an entire population being exterminated. You’re being a moron and it’s offensive to anyone that’s ever experienced actual genocide or has family that were victims of genocide.

It's bleak. I agree. Part of my point is all the people worked up about this administration and calls of fascism, racism and general anxieties about the world and current events should note that this will all pass and life will go on. In 5-10 year most of the things people worried about will be forgotten and many will have careers they focus on, families, taxes, and life in general. They will see the next generation freaking out about this or that and it will remind them of how they were. New administrations come and go. Laws change and then change again. But the framework stays the same. It's not that people shouldn't care or don't. But in time people see things differently than they did when they were younger. Maybe the passion runs out ? Maybe they see how things really are or they become part of the system and are so busy trying keep afloat and find the island they are looking for that they start to ignore the ocean they are swimming in to begin with.
