Are iranian children worth less than american children?

Why i’m supposed to care less about iranian children being killed in war? Is it because their government is evil? Isn’t our government bad too?

It’s human nature to care about those close to you more than those far from you.

Absolutely. It doesnt make it factually correct, but personally. Kid in my area is in ICU after getting attacked with a hammer. Thats so much more worrying to me than school shooters in America. Obviously one is worse than the other, but one happened near me and one is an ocean away.
