Maybe. Maybe not. If only there was some site-mechanism to check community-sentiment on comments.

Oh well, until someone invents that I guess we'll never know.

I appreciate your honest feedback.

Point missed twice, impressive.

I admire the time you have dedicated to whooshing and misinterpretation, you have become highly-skilled.

Point missed.

He/she's dead, Jim.

It flashed a command prompt, that's how you know it worked!

You didn't miss subtlety, the person to which you are replying is the "infinite egocentric snowflake" type. Makes everything about them, is sensitive, kinda common online, but yeah, annoying.

They're always under attack, even when alone, it seems exhausting.

I read comments like this and all I can feel is astonishment that anyone's life is so empty that they can dedicate time to caring about this.

Like, it sounds made up, but honestly whether true or not.. like, who cares? It's so trivial and life has so much to offer. This comment is the first and last time I'll ever think about this.

You're right, I didn't think of that. Damn toddlers soaking up social services. I was wrong before, I apologize.

If the parents are being deported anyway, why don't they let their children go with them?

It's helpful when someone who is going to say something dumb says, "I didn't read the article and will now assume what it said," in their opening sentence. Thank you internet dumb person, thank you.

There are no guardians, that is the point. The adults that were helping were lawyer groups to help discover if these children were, oh, idk, born here and thus citizens of the country under the US Constitution. Trump de-funded that group. So now a four year old is appointed as their own lawyer. Government Efficiency at its finest!

Imagine (please don't hurt your brain, it's okay if you can't imagine, you are doing your best) you are four, the police pick them up. They ask, "Please share with us your documents to prove your citizenship. No adult help allowed." You'd be in Mexico too, probably smarter than you are now so hey maybe a positive outcome for you.

God damn, what an unempathetic illiterate asshole.

READ you stupid fuck. REAAAD.

I'm loving China's silent treatment strategy. Use the diplomatic chains, asshole. Trump may have a mob boss mentality, and corporate America is ready to suck his duck because they are spineless capitalists, but China doesn't need America as much as America needs China.

Fuck the orange moron. Insert head into asshole.

Yep. Democrats are complicit. Check out the podcast episode "Americas Hidden Duopoly" to learn more, it's the Freakonomics podcast I think.

I'll try to scrounge up a link: https://freakonomics.com/podcast/americas-hidden-duopoly-2/

We all know our political system is “broken” — but what if that’s not true? Some say the Republicans and Democrats constitute a wildly successful industry that has colluded to kill off competition, stifle reform, and drive the country apart. So what are you going to do about it?
