“I imagine one of the reasons people cling to their hates so stubbornly is because they sense, once hate is gone, they will be forced to deal with pain.”

Facebook is no longer “Social Media,” it's “Propaganda Media.”

@washingtonpost.com is below 100k for a few simple reason’s

1. They did nothing to help, Jamal Ahmad Hamza Khashoggi.

2. They are a propaganda wing for Trump.

3. They chose sides in the worst of ways in the 2024 election.

4. They suppress the truth.

These are facts.

No. I have no compassion or empathy for any who doesn't believe the same for others. My existence is not based on the faith of one day, not when children are suffering, women are being brutalized, the environment is being stripped, no, I have zero tolerance, as those wounds last a lifetime.

There is no empirical evidence that hell exists.

Nevertheless, for my own mental health, I choose to believe that it does, and that it is populated with abusers of men, women, children and animals.

All persons who enjoy the suffering of others will end up there.

That is all.

At MSNBC's annual live event, Nicolle talks to Sheen about President Trump's lack of humanity & the "sycophants" in his Cabinet.

Martin Sheen has been playing iconic leading men for nearly 70... but Emmy & Golden Globe winner says that while acting is his profession, activism keeps him alive.

The Media has become Trump's public relations department.

Have you noticed that when Johnson/Republicans are asked about a difficult situation, they often claim not to have seen it or do not know the details?

The shame of it all is that the reporter asking the question doesn't follow up with, ' It's your job to know the details,' so why don't you?

"Anarchism is not a romantic fable but the hardheaded realization, based on five thousand years of experience, that we cannot entrust the management of our lives to kings, priests, politicians, generals, and county commissioners.”

Since today is a lie, let’s correct it a bit.

15 to 20 thousand years ago, Original people crossed the Beringia land bridge from Asia into what we call America. These were Lithic Peoples. From the Lithic Era arose the Clovis People.

And that’s our history.

We the Indigenous killers, who are celebrating a man tomorrow that never stepped foot on the mainland, who enslaved and killed countless original people. Yes we are the product of that puritanical nightmare with chains of hypocrisy weighing us down below ground level.
