I have relatives in Gaza. So do you. Kamala is killing those relatives.

"Election or revolution require spreading ideas" is what I wrote to avoid the question of election or revolution. I need to think about that question. What do you think about it?

3 years into genocide and Bernie Sanders just made a video where he says "terrorists" "attacked Israel", "killed 1200 innocents" and "Israel, like any other country, has the absolute right to defend itself".

I want people to care about each other, and share everything, and end private property, and plan what is best for us all (for instance, phase out fossil fuels). I guess that is some sort of socialism, though I don't know what sort. Did Marx say "love thy neighbor"?

Here is the latest version of my leaflet; this is the version I'll be trying to distribute tomorrow at the Earth Day festival.

Capitalism is inefficient, unjust, and stupid. But the majority of our society are stupid too -- apparently they want to continue with capitalism. I guess we should try to change their minds.

Stewart seems to believe capitalism can be reformed. In my view, that is a flaw. But at least, among people with that flaw, I agree that Stewart is a particularly nice guy.

In my view, all people are brothers and sisters. But in the Israelis' view, apparently, it's okay to rape and/or kill anyone who is not an Israeli.

Kamala Harris said she intended to continue Biden's extermination of the Palestinians. Do you feel she was right abou that?

I'd prefer to have no more millionaires.

Why are they called "U. S. Islands" ??

I think that both of the major parties are loyal to capitalism (and to AIPAC), more than to the constitution. But that's hard for any of us to discuss, because for over a century we've been immersed in propaganda against any alternative to capitalism.

If I were a bit more energetic and ambitious -- enough to read a book -- I would read Fugelsang's recent book, "Separation of Church and Hate." I would like to understand how MAGA can be so full of hate but consider itself "Christian."

This is more accurate.

Yes. We've had private property for 12,000 years and it's hard to imagine living without it. Did you see a recent version of the leaflet I've been handing out at "No Kings" and other gatherings?

Trump and Harris were both all set to crush the Palestinians. So there were no good choices in 2024. I voted 3rd party but, surprise, they didn't win.

... If you're looking for a religion that lives up to our values, I can't offer one. Christianity comes close, with its "love your neighbor," but crucifixion is pretty gruesome for a symbol of love. I'll go for some version of communism, which I interpret as sharing (NOT authoritarianism). 2/2

My parents were Jewish but I don't see myself that way. The Israeli persecution of the Palestinians is not unprecedented. After the book of Moses comes the book of Joshua, in which the wandering Hebrews finally arrived at the Promised Land and slaughtered its previous inhabitants. 1/2...(continued)

Some people are calling for revolution. I wish it were that simple. But we're not all agreed on what our new society should look like. In my own opinion, we need friendship, sharing, and end private property. But I don't know how to persuade people to that view.

In the 2024 election, both of the plutocracy parties supported exterminating the Palestinians. So there weren't any good choices.

The real Jesus never started any wars.

It's election season. You'll see plenty of people boasting that they are veterans, as though that were something good. But the USA's many many wars (at least since 1946) have been imperialist aggressions, wars of choice based on lies. The real heroes are the people who never put on the uniform.

I change mine regularly. Probably around once a month, on the average.

You think if Jesus were to come back, he'd ever want to see a f'ing cross again?

It's close. Maybe too close: We aren't all agreed on what the new system should be. I nominate "friendship and sharing" for the new system.

Just to clarify: Burn down the economic system, not the apartments. Redistribute the apartments.

Super Typhoon #Sinlaku is ripping across the Pacific Ocean right now with winds of 285 km/h (180 mph) and a sub-900 pressure of 896 mb 👀

The Northern Mariana Islands and Guam need to be on high alert for this one. Live tracker: zoom.earth/storms/sinla...

I have relatives in Gaza. So do you (think about it). In 2024, all the major candidates were set on exterminating the people of Gaza.

You have the date wrong. You can have Thursday April 16 or Friday April 17. Please clarify.
