Stop virtue signaling. If dead kids remove fascists, then their deaths weren’t in vain. Otherwise, zero. Fucks. Given.
Sorry, but this is ambiguous and I need clarification: Dead Texan kids or dead Palestinian ones? Which dead kids are you exchanging for this putative "fascist-free" vision where your cost to entry is an adjustment to your personal empathy dial?
Both.
Texan kids: See Gov. Abbott denying funds for the systems. And now trying to dodge blame. Not to mention, Texas routinely is anti children.
Palestinian kids: See Abandon Harris and the leftists that either voted Jill Stein or sat out in protests.
And also when I mean if dead kids leads to removal of fascists, I mean a sweeping removal of Trump and down. That included Vance, Massey, MTG, blowjob Boebert, Desantis, Huckabee, Abbott, Bondi, Noem, and so on. If this eventually makes America wake up and remove them ALL then the deaths were not in vain.
So to answer your question, both.
Tough bargain, but at least it's not playing favorites, and is at least a sober, realistic take.
