Imagine fighting a war to liberate yourself from slavery only to find that you are expected to pay your former owners for your freedom Perhaps FRANCE needs to return all the REPARATIONS money Haiti had to pay them for over a Century.... I get your point but i still disagree. This is obviously muddy territory and i’m hoping to lean in with a lot of love and admission of uncertainty in how it plays out, and probably if I’m talking with a trans person I’m doing it much more gently and honoring their experience… One... - ballz2dwallz...
More People Should Die
Elderly people should be able to legally choose to end their life when they’re ready. In fact, any adult should be legally allowed to choose to die. They should be able to invite people, be present for their memorial service, and have a medical professional end their life.... Discussion of border/immigration answers
I have the sense that Vance/Trump probably want to be fairly inhumane in deporting extremely large numbers of people. Various quotes I’ve seen from them have suggested this (though I’d like to fact check myself at some point).... Have you seen the movie "A Hidden Light"? It’s about an Austrian peasant who simply refuses to join the Nazi wehrmacht. He’s just like "No, I just don’t want to. I heard they’re killing cripples, and that’s not my thing".... - annabeth...

That number is the kind that should stop traffic for a minute. Nearly 50 million people trapped in conditions that amount to modern slavery isn't a historical failure. It's a present-tense one.... China - Locked Cars, Forced Tests, and Erased Dates - The Price of Cheap and Fast
China’s economy is not delivering for its own people. University graduates by the millions leave school and find almost no real jobs waiting. Official youth unemployment for ages 16 to 24 hit 17.9 percent in July 2026 after a fresh wave of 12.7 million graduates entered the... Not even sure where to start as I bite my tongue, resisting the urge to ask how you can support a five-time draft dodging traitor, liar, thief, rapist and pedophile who is supporting Putin and his Genocide in Ukraine, and BiBi's genocide in the GAZA Strip against the Palestinian... - on📜 History already ran this sequence: slander, isolation, persecution, slaughter.

True Anti Semitism is a hate of Jewish people. But what Israel and our Govt is attempting to frame as anti Semitic speech is actually not. 1. Speaking against the inhumane and evil attacks by Israel's govt is NOT anti Semitic.... Families of Victims Invited to Watch Hangings as Critics Cry Double Standard
