Random note: it’s not the Cold War anymore. First/second/third world is outdated and a little ass. Say developing nations

Political perfection is not worth any children dying. In fact children should not be dying in general, but certain political parties do not care about children post-birth

at some point you realize it isnt as important in the grand scheme of things as it seems to us. we think our biggest concerns should be who our president is or what minor policies change, meanwhile we are on a trajectory of global collapse almost entirely at fault of US capitalism and our interference in global economics. we’re so beyond spoiled in what we make ourselves concerned with

The things we concern ourselves with are small parts that build a big picture which is WHY they should not be ignored???

noone said to ignore them but their existence often distracts from bigger conversations. like right here with this post. u devolved the conversation to be a left vs right fight, when we are talking about 500,000 children dying preventable deaths

the small parts are talked about enough. trust me there’s no shortage of left vs right debates. but practice being able to let that conversation go when talking about true big picture things

How are we supposed to STOP children from dying if what makes children not die are the policies and legislation constructed by the left?
