How tf could an actually compassionate person bend their brain to be like this? Personally helping others is ok, but doing it systematically via the state isn't?
I think it really helps if you think of some people as people and other people as "people".
Exactly. Kids at school are a statistic that cost money. They’re not seeing the kids behind the statistic, just the cost.
Maybe democrats should start spoofing the feed-the-starving-kids-in-Africa videos.
<video of some balding white guy sitting surrounded by kids in a school cafeteria, looking sad and hungry>“For just twenty five cents a day, you could feed these kids… and it would mean so much to them, but you have to vote for assholes, who hate actual Americans.”
