What do you call it when a goon drives a car with a US citizen toddler inside away while their parent is taken away? Because I'm pretty sure arresting toddlers isn't acceptable at any level. What possible crime could justify toddler detainment? Seems counterintuitive for the parents rights crowd.

Clearly the toddler was involved in a terrorist plot to subvert the government.

It's hiding weapons of mass destruction in that diaper!

The entire point of dehumanizing immigrants is so that "the parents rights crowd" won't be bothered. "Immigrants aren't human, they're just immigrants." They might not say those words, but that how their brain is processing the information.

"The toddler was Hamas!" worked for Israel - ofc the other villains want in on that action, too.

In the US, it's MS-13. Gotta have the eight fake branding of unwanted people if you're gonna be a nazi!
