#GVerse 👏 Sheriff Rochelle Bilal is very clear when she says #FuckICE WILL be arrested for illegal activity. They are “made up, fake, law enforcement.

Never forget the most ironclad rule of politics:

Every abuse you justify against another will be weaponized against you in time.

To cheer abuse, violence, or the suspension of others’ rights is to cheer the abuse, violence, and suspension of your own.

“.. fame and exceptionalism can be very, very destructive. .. I think it’s good to make your own bed, it’s good to go do your shopping, to have your feet on the ground, to know that you’re a human being as well. The other stuff is projection.”

We all become well-disguised mirror image of anything that we fight too long… That which we oppose determines the energy and frames the questions after a while. Most frontal attacks on evil just produce another kind of evil in yourself, along with a very inflated self-image to boot.~Richard Rohr

For those unconditionally cheering the attacks on Iran, remember that our early strikes in Afghanistan and Iraq were “successful”. But we ended up getting dragged into costly wars that created more terrorists than we killed. The American people haven’t forgotten that.

Truth is revealed. It cannot ever be told. We cannot tell the truth. It has to appear inside the telling or through the telling. That's why we listen to what's not said in psychoanalysis and that's again what goes wrong in an interview: It focuses too much on what's said.~James Hillman

“I’m just following orders.”

We’ve all seen where that leads.

Blind obedience is how corrupt systems survive.

How do #politicians #compartmentalize their behavior? In their roles as public officials they spew out #misogynistic, #racist #slander. But somehow, back home, they code-switch to be respectful of their families, community members, and constituents. They should beware of spillover.

A man likes to believe he is the master of his soul. But as long as he is unable to control his moods and emotions or be conscious of the myriad secret ways in which unconscious factors insinuate themselves into his arrangements and decisions, he is certainly not his own master.~CG Jung
