Good old Orphan-crushing machine
Never heard of the term but YES!
Since most people don't click links:
The orphan-crushing machine is luckily just a metaphor for the way media tends present the stories in which a person remedies the effects of sociopolitical injustice as "heartwarming" without questioning why said injustice exists in the first place. The metaphor satirizes these stories by comparing them to a person raising money to keep 200 orphans from getting crushed while nobody questions why an orphan-crushing machine exists and runs in the first place.
The orphan-crushing machine can also be interpreted as a metaphor for late-stage capitalism, where useless products and infrastructure can be produced with the single purpose of further inflating business numbers and creating jobs.
Good old pookleblinky - really sad I haven't been able to follow them since I jumped ship at Twitter.

Oh look, you're smart enough to understand that reasoning about your ridiculous statement would undermine it. Maybe there is hope.
and you are still missing the point here
