heartbroken to learn the pope sympathizes with the poor. how can i continue to believe in god

The Pope tweets: "The poor are not there by chance or by blind and cruel fate. Nor, for most of them, is poverty a choice. Yet, there are those who still presume to make this claim, thus revealing their own blindness and cruelty. #DilexiTe"

Someone replies: "I was so hopeful I could be a Catholic again after the disaster that Francis was, guess we just get Francis 2.0 now and I am heartbroken. How do I stay a Catholic now...I don't want to lose faith but I am. You belong to someone else, not God."

Now that the final 20 Israeli hostages are free, remember: those claiming violence “began on 10/7” want us to ignore that Israel was forced to free 2,000 Palestinians hostages—some 20 years w/o charge—& 8,000 remain.

If Hamas holding 20 is violence—& I agree it is—what is when Israel holds 8,000?🤔

While Trump blusters about "law & order," his regime has dropped or halted nearly 165 investigations into corporate wrongdoing. And Trump himself has pardoned dozens of his supporters, including Jan 6 rioters and others convicted of crimes like money laundering and bribery.

So Trump gave Argentina a $20 billion bailout and is now building a Qatari military facility in Idaho.

While Americans can’t afford groceries.

Hegseth: "I'm also proud that today we're signing a letter of acceptance to build a Qatari Emeri air force facility at the Mountain Home Airbase in Idaho."

3 MAGA extremists have re-intro'd a bill that allows South Carolina to execute women who receive an abortion. If you haven't heard about S 323, it's because corporate media has completely ignored it.

Here's the overview, the sponsors, & how to fight back:

S. Carolina RE-Intros Bill To Kill Women For Getting An Abortion

Here's what's in the bill, why it is so dangerous, and the meaningful steps you can take to fight back, support women's health, and help block this bill from becoming law

Will literally never forgive the displacement of the food cart pods where all the high schoolers, businesspeople, rich, poor, young, and old used to congregate. Downtown died after that. For a stupid hotel that no one stays in, that promised to add affordable units and then did not.

sarah jeong @sarahjeong.bsky.social · 17d

lot of problems with that piece but here's one: if anyone tries to blame "empty downtown" on anything other than

1) the pandemic
2) ted wheeler destroying the big food cart pod so his developer friends could build a hotel no one uses

they're either a moron or a developer

Not only does this story get a number of basic facts wrong, it doesn’t take time to actually explore why Portlanders elected these folks. Coming in with a pre-baked PDX story to fit a NYT narrative about NYC is harmful, especially at this moment.
