What are you, fucking Jigsaw? If you place traps designed to murder people you are murdering them and the state shouldn't be allowed to murder migrants. Do you have some other idea about what should be allowed to do with migrants? Feel free to share with the class.
I'm complaining about the article itself... It is clearly written in a way that you imagine the worst possible thing, but doesn't show any hint of proof for it. Literally the only imagine of barbed wire on that site, is one where it a clearly visible high fence (stock photo).
Also there are no other sources for this in the internet that I could quickly find. It's just a sob story to emotionally manipulate you.
Don't be a coward. Your argument wasn't that the article was false. Your argument was that it made it sound like someone forced them into the traps. Then you, based on your own opinion, said that its sounds like the migrants took a chance that didn't work out. That is you expressing the opinion that literal death traps is something they account for in their risk analysis and that is fair game.
Its ok to be a coward btw. You can just edit that part out and admit it was a stupid and monstrous thing to say. It's fine, but don't pretend you said something else while we can read what you said.
Yeah this is horseshit, fuck off.
I'm seeing this line of thinking more and more. The echo chambers increase in intensity every day.
"If you have a negative emotional reaction to a news story about your team, ignore it, it's a liberal psyop!" - How miraculously convenient for your average psychopathic conservative. From the same people who espouse "law and order" and "Christian morality" but also "it's not a crime if you're not caught".
