I hate how transparently they can shift the definition of child whenever it suits them.

Kyle Rittenhouse and Brock Turner were boys

Tamir Rice, Trayvon Martin, and Michael Brown were immediately executed as adults.

It truly speaks to the depravity of a society when they try to get a technicality on human suffering.

When teenagers express their individual choice and gender identity:

 STOP POLITICIZING CHILDREN

When teenagers are forcibly removed from their homes by state action:

 Those promiscuous thugs left their worthless trash behind for our peacekeepers to dispose of

Actually, if you went outside of your bubble, you’d know rules-lawyering the age of minors is something someone does when they clearly aren’t committing crimes. I do it all the time. What say you, tankies 

Um, aktuly, it wasn't a child. It was a Fighting Age Male.

I fail to see how it makes it less compelling. A young person just being a freaking person was uprooted and displaced by a brutal apartheid. Just because they made it past 5 doesn't mean they don't matter.

It reminds me of the aftermath of the East Palestine, Ohio spill. After Norfolk Southern set that shit on fire and the subsequent bloom of dark smoke was recorded from above, bursting through cloudcover, the fAcT cHeCkErS started running articles about how the 'viral video of a plume of smoke' was fake

What they meant was, "We 'found' one account posting a video misattributed to that specific spill so that we can post this headline"

"If they were old enough to hold a pen then they were old enough to hold a gun."
