At left we have the words of American actor Woody Harrelson.
Obviously, the thought he expresses here isn’t new, though it’s a powerful one. He’s correct in that we need feelings of compassion and harmony for one another more now than we did before this country was cleaved in half when Trump came to power.
From what we can see at left, there are still people who are surprised that President Trump is an insane and thoroughly dishonest human being.
We would all be best served by understanding that, regardless of the matter at hand (in this case, a tragic and poorly understood accident that has left countless family members grieving), Trump is incapable of making any statement not calculated to aggrandize himself at the expense of his enemies.
I had to laugh when I saw this, if only because, and read this carefully, people don’t like to be called “fools.”
That should have been clear after Hillary Clinton called Trump supporters “deplorables.”
As suggested at left, trying to make sense of Trump’s actions is a complete waste of time.
What Brigham Young said here is undeniable; it’s the reason that philanthropic efforts in the developing world often focus on educating girls and women.
The Turimiquire Foundation, the non-profit I frequently mention here, has a similar approach in helping to create a sustainable culture in northeastern Venezuela, combining education with women’s reproductive services.
Here’s something from a Trumper that I thought I’d share. A reader notes: Hard to believe such a thing is even necessary but thank you. Some sanity.
This, of course, is in reaction to Trump’s claim that there are cases in which “a little boy goes to school and comes home a girl.”
The truth is that our schools cannot so much as dispense an aspirin to a kid without the expressed permission of a parent or legal guardian.
Whatever. It just goes to show how many Trump supporters will believe anything the president says, regardless of how ludicrous.
Even my lifelong Republican mom admires Bernie Sanders, certainly not for his political philosophy, but for his sincerity and tenacity.
I would add to the mix a certain sense of humor. As if Trump has the vaguest interest in the well-being of the common American.
It’s hard to know what emotion to feel when we go through our news feeds and find stuff like this.
Anger?
Probably more a deep, pounding sadness, now that our nation is simply a moral cesspool.
No, the mining of lithium and cobalt is definitely not “good,” but the mining/combustion of coal, with its greenhouse gases, heavy metals, and radioactive isotopes, is horrific for the health of the planet and everything living on it.
Of course, a more direct comparison would be to oil, which is what we put in our gas tanks. Similarly, however, there are huge side-effects here, both environmental and social (a little thing called war).
I little bit of honesty would be greatly appreciated.
But what if you really don’t care about any of that, and your only desire is to take over the U.S. federal government immediately?
