    This has been a haunting aspect of this election: comparing refugees, feeling for your lives, to poisonous candies. The refugee screening process is intense, which this image fails to portray. It is feeding into people's fear and does so with bright colors and candy. A haunting piece of propaganda.

    The false analogy makes this both effective and unethical. A poisoned skittle will most certainly kill you, but there is no sense in making the definite prediction that a person would.

    This is definitely harmful because 1. I just think that is just sooooo rude and 2. We can't just say that they're all bad so we can't take any.
