    I genuinely love UpliftingNews here compared to on Reddit because it’s always about the orphan crushing machine being dismantled by those in power instead of stopped temporarily by children, the elderly, and underpaid workers throwing themselves into its gears.

      There is a hint of orphan crushing since this is rare and controversial in the U.S. but should be boring and common.

        Entirely true; it sucks a lot that this is a victory, but it is. That said, I don’t think it could be argued that this does anything to normalize the machine unlike on Reddit, which is the main thing for me.
