As the parent of a child I can say with authority that people, especially in the US, do not give a flying fig about children. People only care about children when children serve their own selfish political purposes or when they can enrich themselves off children. It's why I'm deeply suspicious when anyone says "but what about the CHILDREN?"

So I wasn't surprised when Biden parroted the manipulative lie about decapitated children. I also wouldn't be surprised if the online astroturfers spreading the same lies at the behest of the MIC also likely in real life brag "I hate children".

BuT wHaT aBoUt ThE cHiLdReN they clutch their pearls as they whine about drag queen story time and LGBTQ rights while little children get shot in school, and then they cheer on israel eradicating Palestinians, of whom 50% are under the age 18 and 40% are under the age of 14. They don’t give a flying fuck about children. All they care about is subjugating or eradicating the out group. And their children.
