    Anyone that wants to accelerate things has never lived in the kind of world that they’re advocating for.

    I had a teacher in school that was a Bosnian Muslim during the genocide of the Balkan wars. She, her older brother, and her mom made it out. I never heard her talk about her dad, so I don’t think that he did. She and her older brother would practice their drawing by the light of burning tires. The eventually escaped to England, and then got asylum in the US.

    That’s what we’re trying to avoid.
