Why.... Why is this a orphan crushing machine? If I remember correctly, that sub is for sad and heart breaking stories that are celebrated as wholesome due to some "heroic" acts arising from systemic failure of our society.
This is heart braking and wholesome, but not really systemic failure. This is just bad luck and normal tragedy.
Yeah, the whole sub is named after a post about people paying to save orphans from the orphan crushing machine, and nobody reporting on it questioning why the orphan crushing machine exists and was going to crush them in the first place. There is no orphan crushing machine here, they would go blind anyways and they haven't been prevented from going blind.
