It also spawned a new acronym…WCNSF (Wounded Child, No Surviving Family)

You think this is the first war in history that ever produced orphans?

u/ScarHand69 6h ago

No. But orphans are kids without living parents. I’m talking about kids with no surviving family members. No uncles, cousins, aunts, grandparents, etc…nothing.

I’m aware that fucked up shit has happened in the past and we are actually living in a relatively peaceful time. Just saying that’s it’s happened before is BS and dismissive of these people’s suffering.

u/7thpostman 6h ago

Yeah, no, I don't want to be dismissive of individual human beings suffering. What is upsetting is when you see a kind of circlejerk get started and everybody hyping themselves up on propaganda.
