U.S. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem on Monday criticized the media and politicians, including Gov. JB Pritzker, for “trying to demonize” federal immigration agents and she urged citizens to thank law enforcement officers and “cook a meal for their families.”

store doesn’t have the item you want? not the cashier’s fault

food was late because the restaurant didn’t cook it fast? not the delivery person’s fault

hell, even when it is their fault they’re still probably in a worse position than you and you shouldn’t take it out on them

it is never okay to take out your frustration on service people and people who do have low moral character
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

The "the church is dying" people always mean "the church as I experienced it at a meaningful point in my life is changing" to which I can only say: yes, that's right, theosis is an ongoing process & the Holy Spirit will help us meet each moment when it comes. Stop idolizing the past & join us.

I've gotten to the point of my ministry career where I just want to say: if you don't believe God wants us to exist in the future, that God will bring the Church into the future, then get out of my way ⚓

telling minorities who dont want to have to compromise with bigots that theyre not sufficiently committed to the Greater Good is literally a purity test btw

Trans women are women, and we know this because if we weren’t women the majority of cishet men would automatically believe us when we shared our lived experience, and wouldn’t assume that they had a better grasp of the issues “as an outsider with a more objective opinion”

Billionaires shouldn’t exist for much the same reason that monopolies shouldn’t exist

It’s too much control over too many critical resources and systems concentrated in one fragile point of failure, and that’s no good for the stability of any society

yeah, the thing is you don't even have to bring morals into it

it's just an obvious practical problem that society-warping amounts of power should not be concentrated at the whims of a single individual and the simplest and best way to solve that problem is to disallow anyone from having that power
This.

I never much cared about the *moral* assertion that billionaires should not exist. It's true but never seemed like the most pressing moral failure to resolve.

The REAL reason billionaires shouldn't exist is entirely practical: they're an apocalyptic-level threat.
billionaires should not be allowed to exist because the downside of "one of them loses their mind" is simply too dangerous for a functional society

also, having a billion dollars tends to make you lose your mind

The whole point of democracy is so one person's derangement does not become everybody's problem. It's social hygiene. The fact the richest men in the West are a mix of grotty twelve year olds and deranged apocalypse fanatics is a problem, and we should be honest about it.

This is why the, we have to listen and UNDERSTAND the Republican POV and be NICE, messaging is so absurd 🫠 sure listen to your neighbors, the people in your life, people you meet; have conversations w/ them human to human...but the politicians themselves? there is nothing to learn from any of them

"why isn't centrism more popular" says editorial board who gets mad at any Democrat with a coherent ideology outside 90s Clintonism
It's funny that even the clods at the NYT can kind of grasp at the basic idea, here, that people want to vote for a politician who actually believes in something and passes laws to that effect

The only good Nazi is a dead Nazi.
It’s that simple.

If your politics require you to try and find common ground with Nazis and not the general population you’re a threat to people.

Full stop.

Already seeing a wave of neoliberal accounts and influencers telling people “wait for the midterms,let’s see what happens in the midterm” to those asking about the next protest and how to stay engaged.
“Wait for the midterms” is demotivation propaganda meant to keep people from protecting themselves

“But free speech” was always fascist social engineering in an effort to mainstream the most horrend fascist voices across institutions of cultural social reproduction and prestige in an effort to give them a false equal footing as actual intellectuals and academics.

It’s fascism all the way down.

Hey Ron: I'm 39. I've been on citalopram since I was 27. I have sleep apnea, which means I need regular coverage for medical devices.

Everyone needs healthcare.
DeSantis said “Most people, particularly under 50, what they really need is a catastrophic plan that’s affordable, where then they can pay whatever they’re doing out of a health savings account.”

'Catastrophic care' should be enough for them.

Hello, I’m from Gaza.
We’re living through hell
homes destroyed,memories erased,loved ones gone. Even the innocence of our children has been shattered.
Every bit of help—even a small donation—could save a life or rekindle a flicker of hope.

Thank you for remembering Gaza 😢🙏
