“Save the Children” has been considered the cry of people that can’t put forth a reasonable argument for the thing they want for decades. Right up there with the people that like exclaiming “muh rights” and then either complain about something that’s never been a right, or immediately following up by trying to remove other people’s rights. I feel like using “save the children”(or similar variations) is a pretty good indication that I’m not going to agree with most of what follows.
It’s how they justify the unjustifiable. God and The Children have the same utility in the minds of monsters: anything you do is okay if you’re doing it for them.

Helen Lovejoy has been yelling “won’t somebody think of the children” since 1989.
