Thank you for this! Rankin was also a lifelong #pacifist, arguing against the militarization and national prejudice that lead to war.
Fortunately for us, there is a new biography of Rankin out by @lorissa.bsky.social called "Winning the Earthquake."

Waarom wil een " #pacifist" dáárbij lopen?
“Ik ben een #gewetensbezwaarde, een #Quaker en #pacifist. Ik ben niet onderworpen aan de dienstplicht en moet volgens artikel 35 van de grondwet van #Oekraïne een alternatieve, niet-militaire dienst krijgen.”

After #World #War #II, #Japan renounced #war and dismantled its #military. Ahead of a high-stakes meeting with Trump, Prime Minister Sanae #Takaichi is leveraging her mandate to revise the #pacifist constitution — a #generational shift for #regional #security.
Day13 of #WomenWhoRethoughtTheWorld: geologist and #pacifist Zonia Baber!
Baber rethought how geology is taught, emphasizing field experience over memorization. In Women’s International League for Peace & Freedom, she worked to rid textbooks of racial stereotypes.

The #GnadenhuttenMassacre targeted 96 Christian #NativeAmericans on #ThisDayInHistory in 1782 in Ohio during the #AmericanRevolutionaryWar. The American militia attacked #pacifist #Lenape #Moravians, killing 39 children, 29 women, & 28 men, who prayed and sang hymns as they died.
Day 6 of #WomenWhoRethoughtTheWorld: Hungarian feminist Rosika Schwimmer!
A radical #pacifist & refugee, Schwimmer rethought American citizenship by refusing to swear to take up arms to defend the country. She took her case to the US Supreme Court & lost in 1929. She died stateless

As a #Christo-Veganarchist, I'm a #pacifist; however, I accept #self-defense as #HarmReduction until we get there.
Wat mij opvalt is de ontspannen lakonieke manier waarop men spreekt over slachtoffers aangaande de aanval op Iran, soort colleteral damage, vegen we onder het tapijt, de waarde van een gemiddeld mensenleven op aarde is mijns inziens behoorlijk gedaald de laatste jaren. #pacifist ik.
Last night, I woke up screaming from a nightmare. This morning, my spouse informed me that we are at #war with #Iran. Coincidence, as humans do horrible things to each other every day. (And I've been taking medication to reduce my nightmares that stem from this.)
In any case, I normally avoid […]
What about arming people to actually fight #ICE? No more of this #pacifist bull; they’re literally being trained to kill us!
4 years today since Putin launched his full-scale invasion of #Ukraine. Are we still sure there was no better way to respond to it? #pacifist #critique #war 🇺🇦☮️⚖️
“Stan what is your policy on whether or not it’s okay to hit someone if they hit you first, as a #pacifist?” 🕊️
According to documentary I watched, narrated by Hannah Fry, the best strategy is usually trust first, then tit for tat, and sometimes forgive. 😀

British physician #AlexComfort, born #ThisDayInHistory in 1920, is best known to Americans for #TheJoyOfSex, though he was a noted #anarchist theorist & #pacifist activist, too. Check out 'Authority And Delinquency In The Modern State' (1950) and 'Peace And Disobedience' (1946).

“I am not only a #pacifist but a militant pacifist. I am willing to fight for #peace. Nothing will end war unless the people themselves refuse to go to war.” -Albert #Einstein
We must close loopholes at the very least. There is so much more to do, but this is a critical step ✌️Thank you #NDP!

It was a pleasure to supply information about Vale William Rawlings, which is now on the Peace Pledge Union website Men Who Said No. It's a looong read but I'm delighted they ran it all. menwhosaidno.org/men/men_file... #ConscientiousObjector #pacifist #FriendshipLoveTruth #Staffordshire

I'm a #pacifist, but I have no problem with people damaging property for a good cause. Maybe I'm a hypocrite for not doing so myself, but as a #Black transmasculine person, I feel highly vulnerable and do not expect I'd survive an encounter with the police, or jail without being raped or worse […]
Am an #OAP & a Pacifist,
Was at #GreenhamCommon, raised money for #CND etc.
But #Trump makes me so angry
He is a huge #Warmonger
To call himself a #Pacifist is complete shit
I should like to slap his ugly face & kick him in the balls

Here i'm mixing a typical #left #pacifist take and Muse the band that on their concerts stand very high
Most of these left activists are middle class folks with academic background in a Western country and have a very theoretic idea of what they're talking about
As a #Christo-Veganarchist, I'm a #pacifist at heart; even so, I think defensive measures are a necessary evil until such time as #pacifism can be achieved.
The calls for violent bloody #revolution are getting louder. I’m afraid you’ve been outvoted, #pacifist.
