This is my dad.
A Social Justice warrior.
A scholastic Jesuit.
He wrote for the Catholic New Times and started a social justice club at his church which was weekly letter writing.
He is my goal post.
RIP Dad ~2017

Movies teach us to wait for a hero.
And real life leaves the damage after the scene ends.
Liam was taken from his home and sent to a Texas detention centre, despite his non-criminal family being legal asylum seekers. We’ve seen this movie.

Orwell didn’t fear dictators with tanks. He feared committees with nice-sounding names. A “Board of Peace” run by coercive states isn’t hypocrisy, it’s how street bullies hide,no longer having to explain themselves when they have words like that.

A parable: one country brought the biggest cheque and mistook contribution for control. When reminded health rules are shared, it withdrew. The other 194 stayed. Diseases don’t negotiate with tantrums. Cooperation outlasts ego.
