People over profits, Integrity over corruption, Spirituality over religion, Diplomacy over war, Humanity over militarism and incarceration. World Citizen.
This is caused primarily by dehumanization of specific groups of people. Anytime you downgrade someone’s basic humanity you create the conditions for killing them.
Humanity will not evolve beyond this violent stage we are in now until we all learn to treat everyone as human beings.
Humanity will not evolve beyond this violent stage we are in now until we all learn to treat everyone as human beings.
Intentionally killing innocent people is always wrong.
Wherever in the world it happens.
You might think everyone agrees with this simple moral principle, and yet far too many people, on far too many different sections of the political spectrum, try and make exceptions to it.

If we're not at war, Pete Hegseth is a murderer. If we are at war, Pete Hegseth is still a murderer. He's a murderer. And you don't need to go to The Hague to hold him accountable because there are perfectly good, American laws AGAINST MURDER.

Pete Hegseth Should Be Charged With Murder
No matter how you look at the strikes on alleged “drug boats”—as acts of war or attacks on civilians—Hegseth has committed a crime and should be prosecuted.

💯. The fact that NO one from the Bush administration went to prison for: Iraq, Abu Grahib, Gitmo, rendition and black site torture, etc, etc is EXACTLY why Trump and co. is doing what it’s doing today. They know for a FACT they won’t be held accountable.

If you want to know why Pete Hegseth is confident he'll face no consequences for blatant war crimes, just look at the list of people who attended Dick Cheney's funeral.

A great example if you really want to know where the REAL domestic terrorism problem in the US is.
MTG has been in Congress since 2020 & is resigning Jan 5, 2026. I just want to point out one thing.
She spent 5 years attacking the left & never feared for her life.
She spent 5 weeks mildly critiquing MAGA & the backlash is so severe she is resigning.
5 years vs 5 weeks. That says it all.

Great point about SNAP that also applies to other benefit programs (the ACA comes to mind). Both SNAP and the ACA are really corporate welfare programs. If corporations did right by their employees and if we had single payer healthcare the need for both would be substantially less.

This week on The Qasim Rashid Show: SNAP is not welfare for hungry people. It's corporate welfare for companies exploiting low-income people. Healthcare is a human right and corporations should offer living wages.

Was Jeffrey Epstein working for Mossad?
I used to dismiss this as a conspiracy theory.
But new revelations mean we can't ignore his extensive links with Israel.

Exposing the Epstein Network is not going to be politically convenient. If your interest in unravelling a child rape network is to only take down Trump, you aren't interested in justice. Sure it can take him down, but you must adult up; accept it'll take down some of your favourite politicians too.

The president of the united states is a pedophile rapist who was best buddies with Jeffrey Epstein and spent hours with an underage victim at Epstein's home. Now he's currently huddled in the situation room directing a cover up about it like it's a seal team 6 operation. Do I have that right?

Chuck Schumer doing what he does best: folding to Trump’s authoritarian regime and failing the American people. You’d think after last week, he’d understand the moment we’re in and the leverage he has. He must be replaced as leader immediately, and the out-of-touch corporate old guard needs to go.
