Well, this tweet just fucked me all the way up. As it should.

A tweet from @HariKondabolu that says “The US not calling for a ceasefire despite the number of children who have been killed saddens me greatly. At the same time, guns have killed so many American kids, and we have done little to stop that. So we're somewhat morally consistent about killing children.”

Hari tends to have his finger on the pulse of these things.

I mean we're morally consistent about killing: Native Americans, slavery, et al. The outrage will always be warranted. Let's just have our Celsius now.

But wait! These 2 things are interrelated. Arms is the US’ biggest manufacturing and exporting industry. When US imperialism comes home to roost in the over representation of military backgrounds of mass shooters, ethnonationalism, and chauvinism, we can connect killing of babies there and here.

I mean we have been OPENLY hostile towards children in this country in more ways than just the gun violence, but yeah, he's right. Where we're psychotic tho, is by demanding more children be born into ~tHiS~ thru abortion bans & trying to restrict birth control.
