Almost everything we argue about is a substitute for the thing we should be arguing about: the immense wealth & power of an oligarchic class, which captures governments, ruins lives and wrecks the living planet.
This class redirects our rage at scapegoats. To resist its lies is to resist its power.
Good riddance, sadly the next person will probably be as loathsome.
It seems immoral is the current guiding forces for many conflicts. There appears to not be enough effect disincentives to stop the current trends of "total war". It is deeply saddening.
It is not about age, gender, etc. Stop trying to break focus on the real villains. The mega rich and political class are plundering society.
Unpopular Opinion:
It historically much higher in America, but rich people don't want you to know that.
My mom taught all of us to cook, clean, and sew (2 boys, 2 girls). With my wife if you cook, you don't clean, we divide tasks fairly. Being all to contribute fairly in a relationship is a solid foundation.
How on earth did you paint that, a single bristle brush?
I knew it was you! Bluesky can't handle you. ;-)
Definitely working hard for the Nobel Peace Prize there!
Welcome back!
I suspect any "good deed" Trump has done has either resulted in some Quid Pro Quo, bribe, or some other net gain for him. He is such a damaged person that empathy and kindness are an anti-thesis for him.
When I was a child they brought us into the gym and did the entire school in a day. No consent forms, just done to one and all. We might need to be strict and insist all children going to school get vaccinations (except were medically incompatible).
Problem is the stupid will infect others, including those that can't medically have vaccinations. It is a decision that affects more than themselves.
It is not just America, Australian are buying into the same bullshit. Yes a tiny percentage might have a reaction, but millions will be kept safe. It is selfish and stupid, leading to a loss of herd immunity. So much effort has gone into convincing people to make bad choices.
So it is not one shoe, but many. Totally avoidable catastrophe of Trump's arrogant making.
Some widows in the Caribbean would like a word.
I have 10 fingers, I want to keep it that way.
The poor little guy looks so miserable in the freezing rain.
Me too, it is a good place to connect, listen, learn, and occasionally share.
Anyone else expecting/waiting for the other shoe drop moment in the Middle East?
A lot of us CIS people hang out on Blue Sky, and are friendly, so good place to post that question.
That sounds like me and my amazing wife.
Any excuse to rapid reduce America to a Third World country. It is saddening that no one is stopping the wholesale destruction of America.
Gandhi seven social sins of 1925:
1. Wealth without work.
2. Pleasure without conscience.
3. Knowledge without character.
4. Commerce without morality.
5. Science without humanity.
6. Religion without sacrifice.
7. Politics without principle.
What would you add or change?
That would have been so much time and effort! As always amazing work.
