  Religion and Nationalism are among the most destructive forces on Earth. They teach people [not] to think, fuel our tribal conflicts, and perpetuate false divisions where there needn't be. Life is wondrous and meaningful enough without either one. "My country is the world, and my religion is to do good,"—Thomas Paine, said over 200 years ago. “I am not Athenian, nor Greek, I am a citizen of the world."—Diogenes, said more than 2,000 years ago, the idea of global oneness. Will we ever learn.

View rallying speech scene from the show Andor. In her rallying speech to catalyze rebellion, Maarva reflects on how life under Imperial rule had lulled everyone into passivity and complacency through routine and modest comforts afforded by the system of subsistence living under the Empire, blinding them to the broader evils they were enabling. By the time those dangers became so extreme and impossible to ignore, it was basically too late to act. Too long have we similarly acclimated to injustice and atrocity, allowing oppressors to thrive on our silence and neutrality. Imperialist aggression is more of a global threat than ever, intensifying around the world, taking the form of fascist right wing cult dictators, authoritarian imperialists, and religious extremist war criminals. They seek territorial expansion, geopolitical dominance,  and have no regard for international U.N. law. Financial power fuels this entire totalitarian ethos: through inner-circle dealings over money, resou...

A few days ago   millions of documents from the Epstein files were released by the U.S. Department of Justice. Initially the documents were published up on the DOJ's website, and then promptly taken down, only then to be re-released again a bit later that day, perhaps realizing the beans were already spilt, yet this time with heavy edits and redactions, with names of many of the perpetrators and enablers of these crimes blacked out, along with some graphic images. Still, the files do reveal plenty of names, like Donald Trump, who are directly implicated in these crimes—crimes of sex trafficking of minors, pedophilia, rape, torture, kidnapping, and even murder. The elites who participated in these crimes clearly have deeply psychopathic, nihilistic, dystopian views of the world. They don't believe in humanity. They don't believe in morality. They don't believe in society, laws, or civilization. Their vast elitist wealth has dehumanized them to the point of actually feel...

For all the smug cynicism out there post the “No Kings 2.0” nationwide mass protests against the fascist Trump admin which just happened Saturday, October 18th 2025, saying that these mass protests “don’t do anything, won’t do anything,” that it’s all just a “fun parade that makes people feel better,” and “just a bunch of tribal virtue signaling, blah blah…” No one is say ing that mass protests alone create all the changes needed, but they are a (historically proven) PART of the cocktail for change and resistance needless to say, and without which the higher strategic steps of targeted boycotts, strikes, direct action, systemically disruptive non-violent civil disobedience, legislative components, etc., aren’t possible—unless we have a mass movement, which starts by galvanizing and unifying the people in the streets viscerally together. Its where it starts, especially when things have become so dire—when all three branches of government are controlled and being flagrantly abused, when ...

(Photo: Associated Press) Everyday, some 50–100 aid-seeking, defenseless Palestinians are fatally shot and killed, many of them children, by the Israeli Terrorist Forces—every single day. It happened yesterday, it happened the day before that, and it will happen again tomorrow. The “aid” Israel claims to be allowed in is around 35 trucks, with a couple of other countries air dropping aid that may be landing on Palestinians heads and tents… when what’s needed given the mass starvation ensuing, with a genocided population that has zero infrastructure, is thousands of trucks of aid. If they can allow in 36 trucks then they can allow all of the aid trucks in lined up for miles outside Gaza. Not to mention much of the aid which does make it in, is stolen by Israeli-allied ISIS linked terrorist gangs who resell it at extortionist prices to starving Palestinian families, where a kilo of flower can reach around $100. Of course, flower alone cannot sustain a healthy human being whatsoever anywa...

  (Photo: Al Jazeera) Israel’s forced starvation of the innocent Palestinian people of Gaza is nothing but pure Genocidal treachery, on a scale arguably the worst in world history... entirely U.S. enabled, U.S. weaponized, and U.S. insulated. Also complicit in weaponizing and insulating Israel’s heinous War Crimes are the U.K., going along with anything the U.S. does… and Germany, bowing to anything Israel does in forever apology for it’s WWII Holocaust upon the Jews, as Israel now commits it’s own genocidal atrocities some few short generations later; in sickening irony. For over 2 months Israel has blocked all humanitarian aid into Gaza, a deliberate policy of weaponized starvation, which Israeli officials have outwardly confessed as their intention, publically stating they're trying to "put Gaza on a diet", and yet do not hesitate to turn around when needed to gaslight this entire situation as just a matter of “Hamas stealing the aid”, with their insultingly weak almos...

We’ve done nothing to solve our climate crisis at the industrial level where it counts. There is a 99.99% scientific consensus that climate change/global warming IS happening, set to make the Earth unlivable for human beings and countless other lifeforms in the coming decades. And there's 99.99% scientific consensus that carbon emissions are THE main cause of it, ie: fossil fuel use from cars, power plants, industry, etc., exacerbated by our destruction of carbon-absorbing rainforests and oceans—the planet's natural immune system. We need hard, binding legal caps on emissions; measurable pass/fail benchmarks which must be met by polluting companies on a regular basis, made severely punishable by law. However, the true root of Climate Change is the profit motive, societies one singular goal. If it makes money, if it generates income, that’s all that matters, no matter how dumb, destructive, distracting, or undemocratic. It supersedes priorities, moralities, and our very politics...

New research shows Musk biased X /Twitter the day he endorsed Trump to prioritize visibility of republican content and his own page .  https://www.independent.co.uk/tech/elon-musk-trump-x-algorithm-bias-b2640976.html Our ideas are algorithmically silenced online .
