The Cynics had five core principles:
1. Ἀρετή (Aretē) – Virtue as the Only Good
2. Αὐτάρκεια (Autarkeia) – Self-Sufficiency
3. Παραρρησία (Parrēsia) – Frank Speech
4. Ἀναίδεια (Anaideia) – Shamelessness
5. Κατὰ φύσιν ζῆν (Kata physin zēn) – Living According to Nature
These are the Way of the Dog.

A big reason I don’t want Newsom in a general election (along with the TERF shit and his hatred for poor people, etc.) is that he WILL NOT WIN. It’s not only ethically wrong to support him, it’s also a matter of practicality.

Hillary Clinton: "More people were deported under my husband and Barack Obama without killing American citizens and without putting children into detention camps than were in the first Trump term or this first year of Trump's second term."

H.R. 1 dedicated $45 BILLION to detention center expansion and we know that ICE/DHS is ACTIVELY trying to expand their detention capacity in the Seattle area.
That’s why I just introduced emergency legislation to institute a citywide moratorium to stop new or expanded detention centers in Seattle.

Once again: I will donate $5 to the DNC for every Dem Senator who publicly calls for Chuck's resignation. Consider it, Dems-- you will make $ hand over fist.
This is why there must be a full, independent investigation of every incident that ICE has been involved in. DHS and this administration cannot be trusted to carry out investigations on their own.
And it’s why Democrats are fighting to rein in ICE.

Empty the camps and burn them down. Stockades, then life imprisonment for every staff member at Dilley involved.
That's the mildest thing I can say on main about this.

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.
The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.
But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

Absolute Hero. If there's a fundraiser for this person, I will unhesitatingly donate to the "we should set fire to concentration camps" fund.
