Ah yes, the poor little smol bean uwu Doge boys. It’s not their fault they (probably) killed 100,000 children. Anyone could have done that!

Back in the real world, these people were adults who let 100,000s die because they didn’t care to check the likely outcome of cutting the programs they assumed were worthless.

“They were careless people, Tom and Daisy—they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.”

Sounds familiar doesn’t it? Almost as if Fitzgerald was describing a type.
