I don’t know who needs to hear this, but we are not a Christian nation. We are a nation where you are free to be a Christian.
Your religion guides you, not all of us. It’s as simple as that.
Chuck DarwinThe pattern of Donald Trump’s rhetoric and actions affecting the United States’ election process
largely tracks the authoritarian playbook seen in countries undergoing democratic backsliding.
While it has at times been a clumsy effort that trips over constitutional limits and is blocked by judicialand political resistance,
taken as a whole, the Trump administration’s actions are consistent with an election takeover pattern that consists of five steps:
Lay the groundwork by spreading false election narratives
Install loyalists who act on those false narratives
Rewrite the rules and weaponize the executive branch against the system
Create an intimidating environment around voting
Attack the count and certification

MissConstrueRED FUCKING ALERT
The United States is dropping land mines around villages in Iran. Images posted to social media Thursday show what experts said are U.S. land mines dispersed across a residential area in southern Iran, in what appears to be the first instance in more than two decades of American forces using the weapons.
The photos show American BLU-91/B anti-tank land mines, which are released from an aircraft as part of the Gator mine scattering system, according to four munitions experts who reviewed the imagery at The Washington Post’s request. The United States is the only party in the Iran war known to possess the system.
LAND MINES ARE A WAR CRIME! What in the actual fuck are we doing here? This is a violation of law, of sense, and of humanity. Den Hague for everyone involved.

Paolo #Benanti is an Italian Catholic priest and theologian known for his work in #ethics, particularly regarding artificial intelligence. He serves as an advisor to Pope Francis.
Peter Thiel is a wackadoodle billionaire touring the world giving "Make the antichrist great again" lectures. (Because he's a wackadoodle, that's why. Also, he thinks billionaires should be in charge and poors should be slaves or fertilizer. Did I mention the wackadoodle part?)
Peter "Bow Before Me" #Thiel decided to give a series of these lectures near the #Vatican. The Vatican rebuked him and has unleashed the Franciscan Ethicist, who wrote this: (Translated, Italian link on page)
American heresy: should Peter Thiel be burned at the stake?
This is a work of stunning beauty and knowledge. As #philosophy and #theology slapdowns go, this one will be in textbooks. I'm in awe. Literally in awe.

Alison CreeksideThe Prime Minister of Spain on FB 3 hours ago:
"The world, Europe, and Spain have faced this critical moment before. In 2003, a few irresponsible leaders dragged us into an illegal war in the Middle East that brought nothing but insecurity and pain.
Our response then must be our response now:
NO to violations of international law.
NO to the illusion that we can solve the world’s problems with bombs.
NO to repeating the mistakes of the past.
NO TO WAR."
