Economics and spirituality. For a person of faith, the religious question would be the most important question that they face. Because if the divine exists, then they would need to know what the divine commands are. If a pers…

I will try and write a weekly blog on irishfabian.wordpress.com

Reading books, writing books, selling books the life of an author I suppose

An Irish-language science fiction book sounds quite modern, doesn’t it?

Check out this one from 1939 #Spéirghorm

the good news is that he almost certainly doesn’t live that long

The Trump Leo thing reminds me of Dorothy Day.

White/able/male/"heritage" ancestry is strength.

BIPOC/disabled/fem/immigrant background is weak.

In the fascist narrative these are distinctions Nature itself makes, and without malign* interference, the strong automatically prevail.

*Jewish/foreign

It’s funny that every school is convinced that dumping area studies and student organizations for Black students is the path to “regaining trust”

Now to check up on news

Since I was in university I have always founds the anarchists to be the nicest most humane people.

Also, there literally already is a "Palestinian Mandela", and Western liberals aren't pining for him.

Cherokee chief won’t be allowed to speak on Oklahoma House floor again, chamber leader says • Oklahoma Voice The head of the Cherokee Nation will not be invited back to speak on the House floor after he took a “political position” defending Medicaid expansion, the House speaker said Thursday.

Bonkers: The USA belongs to the First Nations & yet the Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation has been banned from the Oklahoma House floor! The sheer colonialism of such arrogance is breathtaking. Perhaps Oklahoma could make America great again, by listening to its original people?

Trump, 79, Insists He’s Never Heard of a “Corner Store” Before Donald Trump made the bizarre and out-of-touch remark during an event about affordability.

"Trump’s manner of reading speeches for the first time, struggling to understand or even pronounce the words, is also concerning for the oldest person to be elected president. Trump, who grew up in New York City, can’t possibly claim to not know what a corner store is — unless he actually forgot."

With Trump and the Pope I am reminded that J Eagar Hoover had a file on Dorothy Day.

the storm of hate directed at Eileen Ní Fhloinn has come not only from the Irish far right, but the massive international networks of far right influencers on social media. even Libs of TikTok got involved. this is what people risk every time they dare to criticise the far right anywhere

Bigotry against Travellers is where many Irish racists cut their teeth.

Some of the most commonly enforced Jim Crows laws historically were anti-fishing and hunting regulations. At the time it was openly discussed that if black people had access to their own food procurement they would refuse to work as hard for white business owners or worse potentially go 'off grid'.

Is Trump mad? Attacking the Pope and 1.4 billion Catholics. From James Martin SJ is defending the Pope.

Dorothy Day of Catholic Worker had an FBI file.

There is nothing you will read today that is more important than this. Maith thú @louthforever.bsky.social.

Why did I write the book, Christianity and social democracy? I have always had a questioning mind. I have always sorted out new ideas. I thought deeply about 2 basic ideas that I think are important for people to think about. What position should I take in r…
