It's similar to what happened to the Aborigines in Australia, although without the fascists- many children were abducted to be raised 'civilized" and never saw their families again. Their families were told they died, or were told nothing and were powerless to find their kids again. When the children grew up they still weren't accepted by society on an equal basis, but they had lost their roots as well. All in all, a very bad situation. We can be a real nasty species. I want to go think on that other thread now, the positive aspects of people, but am having trouble coming up with things.
Well, the thing is, we talk about various difficult topics here, but that doesn not mean that that is all we are!
Look at the way people always try to help each other here, for example.
