The sins of the parent are not the sins of the child. I’m sure you said this because you are hurting unimaginably more than I am (I live several timezones away). However difficut it is, I think it’s worth trying our damdest not to be pulled down into fascistic vitriol, thinking children deserve a broken life for only the blood in their veins. I oppose ICE and other similar groups around the world because their actions conflict directly and harshly with my ideals, and I sometimes start to lose sight of those very ideals when I get more and more angry at the news. I’m very glad for the few voices I’ve heard that remind me to look up and try to rise above my feelings, not in a "turn the other cheek, we can’t stop the horrors bc red tape is our #1 priority), but just in a way that reminds of you of why your fighting, so you don’t find that you’ve started fighting yourself.
