A two panel Comic.
First panel is set somewhere in the middle ages in south america. A child is sacrificed on an altar.
The people observing this say: why do we have to kill kids? - it’s not a “killing”, it’s a “sacrifice”. - if we didn’t sacrifice kids the rain god will be mad… - … and the rain may stop falling… - … and our crops would stop growing … - …and we’ll starve to death!
Second panel is modern day street scene, a dead child is lifted into an ambulance, a crushed tricycle left on the road.
The people observing this say: why do we have to kill kids? - it’s not a “killing”, it’s a “car accident”. - if we motorists had to drive slower, it would hurt car sales… - … and the economy would be upset… - … and we’ll all lose our jobs… - …and we’ll starve to death!
I did not see this banger of a comic on here, so have it, please
The euphemism really does hide the fact - people die and we could stop it if we really wanted but for our fucked priorities.
