Some classic tips:

Recent incidents of Trump officials being confronted in public for their role in the administration’s separation and imprisonment of immigrant families have driven renewed concern about the lack of civility in U.S. politics. The Onion presents tips for staying civil in a debate about child prisons.
...

Avoid unkind generalizations like equating the jailing of ethnic minorities with some malevolent form of fascism.
...

Make sure any protests are peaceful, silent, and completely out of sight of anyone who could actually affect government policy.
...

Give your political opponents the benefit of the doubt by letting this play out for 20 years and seeing if it gets any better on its own.
...

Realize that every pressing social issue is solved through civil discourse if you ignore virtually all of human history.
...

Avoid painting with a broad brush. Not everyone in favor of zero-tolerance immigration wants to see children in cages—it’s more likely that they just don’t care.

1. some more tips...........

Remember that their parents broke the law, by trying to legally apply for asylum.

Also remember that while drumpf is putting babies in cages, children are sleeping on the ground and covered in filth, disease is spreading, and children are likely being sexually abused, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had the audacity to use the term "concentration camps" so BOTH SIDES! BOTH SIDES are equally to blame for the lack of civility.



I'm going to go puke now.
