" 'That's why I'm voting for him. It's the economy.' When somebody says that, I think we need to start collectively responding: So, you value money that more than you do human
beings. Then we're not compatible."

Dying to Be Men: American Masculinity as Death Cult

How white supremacist, misogynist and homophobic ideals of manhood fuel violence in America—and put men like Charlie Kirk at risk.

Inanna Ihwa – More

I want money, I want power,
I’ll be popular and hot.
That’s the story of the plot:
I’ll get mine and you’ll turn sour.

All there is, is neck or boot.
No one thinks the way you do,
Except those who don’t pull through.
Life is being crushed or loot.

There’s a future in the air
In which life is not a battle,
In which workers are not cattle
Owned by those that do not care,

Squeezed by those that will not share.
There is more than status quo,
There’s a way that we will go,
Because we don’t duck, we dare.

Dare to change the world. There is nothing quixotic or romantic in wanting to change the world. It is possible. It is the age-old vocation of all humanity. I can't think of a better life than one dedicated to passion, to dreams, to the stubbornness that defies chaos and disillusionment.
