serious hot take The dehumanization of babies and the humanization of pets is horrible

I’ve heard people say that they would save their dog over a Random baby and that is insane. This even extends to the Clancy case where people are supporting a woman who MURDERED her 3 kids. People also calling their pets their “kids” is weird as shit. People are crazy and the world is going to shit

If you were on Facebook anytime after they changed the main page to that algorithm you can see that reddit is mirroring it to the letter.  There's tons of new subs popping up from accounts created same time named for the sub and theyre all sharing the current outrage in a Madlibs style format. Many are watermarked exactly how all the groups that popped up on Facebook ran by Southeast Asian botfarms did it.
