I am still so confused about this one. Is this like a thing? Honestly I wouldn't be surprised anymore. All the rest is pretty real, we basically "sacrifice" children by giving religions so much power, war, unregulated fast food, etc.

Big thing in many developing countries. There's entire villages where many people give away their own organs or those of their children for the equivalent of a couple hundred bucks. Mostly kidneys, since you can live with one of them but still pretty messed up.

Not so long time ago, at the dawn of this century this has been a substantial issue even in Europe, in Moldova. Now a big thing in Afghanistan.

[Milei] has also raised the possibility of allowing people to sell their own vital organs.

Or that children are being sacrificed to them. Crucification was a state punishment, so maybe they are trying to say that governments are complicit in the crime? Maybe?

Or maybe that children are our saviors/future, but they are being sacrificed on the backs of these topical issues?

Art is hard.

That abortion thing is messed up. The rest is true...

It's probably organ harvesting, not abortion
