The separation policy is really about separating you from your values (Tom Toles)

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

Let’s see, aside from literally shooting someone to death on Fifth Avenue, what can you think of that is more crazed in its inhumanity than separating a mother from her children for tactical reasons? I’ll pause while you consider that.

Give up? That’s right, it used to be kind of a base-line moral decency that this kind of thing would never happen as a conscious decision and be deliberately implemented as American policy. How quickly our heart and its arteries have been hardened by the new Trump dietary guidelines. Trump stakes have been driven right into the beating center of our national decency. One tough stake at a time.
...
Our previous values were really no different from government regulations. For every new Trump “value,” we get rid of two old ones. Freeing! Freeing to Trump and his personal prerogatives and power. The slippery slope to values-free living turned out to be a waterslide of speed and excitement. We are different! We are the best!

Dehumanizing others is the fast, fun and effective way, it turns out, to dehumanize ourselves.
