    I agree legality != morality!

    I after WW2 we decided industrial scale murder is wrong and gas chambers are evil yet to this day animals suffer this fate, legally.

    For a moment I thought this post was referring downvotes on reddit. But at the rate it’s going, it wouldn’t surprise me if that becomes a thing in a few years. “Oh, you downvoted a picture of J.D. Vance? Visa canceled, you’re here illegally now; ICE is coming to pick you up.”
