TODAY. Voices for decency

As a (recovered) Catholic, I have often pondered on the cruelties done by the Catholic religion, and yet, also on the compassion and kindness of the Catholic communities.

Now we witness the horrors of the Israeli mass execution of Gazans – in this supposedly “advanced” 21st Century era. And, we’re told, it’s being done by the Jews, against the Islamists . Some Jews hold extremist beliefs. And some Muslims hold extremist beliefs. But in either case, they are not the majority.

The genocide of Gaza is not being done on behalf of all Jews, and today, we learn of the desperate call from Jews For Peace, and IfNotNow, for a ceasfire and diplomacy, in the Israeli war, and fairness for the Palestinians. They call for a new system of collective liberalism in place of militant ethnonationalism.

At the same time, do we witness a tiny opening skirmish by journalists, against the prevailing dogma of regurgitating the USA pro Israel line on the Israeli war? Today some mainstream media journalists, like CNN’s Clarissa Ward, daring to contradict the story that Palestinians bombed their own hospital? #Israel #Palestine

The Halloween nightmare that is too real to ignore.
Trump wants to execute poor mothers, who cannot afford diapers and food, for their babies. There are getting to be more and more, impoverished, in greedy gangster capitalist, usa. Skyrocketing rents. Skyrocketing inflation from proxy war and, corporate greed. Mass homelessness. 100 million americans over their heads, in medical debt. Forty percent of americans, living from pay check to pay check. Many of those, in dire poverty. There was a lady who shoplifted a few dollars worth of second rate baby food, from a dollar store, in the usa. She spent 6 months in jail for it, in good ol dickensonian, usa.
A cop recently took it upon himself, to put a young, poor pregnant woman in harms way, over petty shoplifting and proceeded to execute her. Vicious, sociopath, Trump just called for execution of shoplifters. It called to enforce a muslim travel ban again, in these troubled times. He wants, to restart the ugly pogroms of mass racist shootings, that were the hallmark of his tenure as president, anew. Trump wants to put homeless and poor people, in concentration camps, to exterminate them. This is how messed up, this country has become.

Joe Biden brags, that he wrote the patriot act, which he did not.
This current president thing, just lies about doing anything for the usa, while spending trillions to cause ww3. To precipitate a nuclear war. 50 billion to israel to genocide part of 2.1 million people crammed into the tiny gaza strip. An invasion, that willsueely start a major war in the middle east. 55 billion to the ukraine, to send long range missiles and jet bombers, to attack russia. The kind of insanity, that will start, a nuclear war. No attemps to broker peace, in that ravaged, embittered land.
Biden’s speeches, seem cgi- computer, generated.
The narrow slits for eyes barely blink, as it sits in front of a camera and blathers the same banal, empirial rhetoric, his puppet masters have emphasized and plotted armageddon with, for the last 2 years.

There is mass encarceration, mass homelessness , in the usa. The guy just lies, and goes with the repuklicans for infinite war budgets, while butchering any domestic spending, every time. The impirial mass media, spews the most simplistic and opaque propaganda and lies possible repeatedly, to support the regime and its ill guided intent of nuclear apocolypse. Good americans gobble up those piles of manure, till their eyes are like dullled, blank, zombie saucers while they beg for more.

The republicans, want poverty, misery and degradation for most people in the usa. Nasty people, who will punish the masses of people even more, for the misery they have already imposed, upon them.
Biden has spent 3.3 trillion to perpetuate a proxy war with russia, to destroy ukraine.
Biden has cut off medicaid and food to 12 million americans. Everyone, could have decent health care in this country, no homeless, no hungry. That is what 50 billion dollars, would do in america.

Joe biden, has spent 3.3 trillion dollars to start a nuclear war, impoverish america, and pave the way for worse facism. 3.3 trillion for war, more nukes, to end life on earth.

Trump seethes blood-lust, hate mass suffering. The don, increased the federal debt 8.5 trillion dollars, while it was in power. The racially motivated- hate and mass shootings . Trump almost started a nuclear war. His sanctions in south and central america, have sent 10s of thousands of misguided, dispossessed creatures , scurrying to the us border putting pressure on so many other impoverished, mistreated, domestic people. A lose lose nightmare.

The usa, a country of mass, incarceration, 40 percent and more of the people struggling, mass homelessness. Another 40 percent fed up and the rop 20 percent, want them to kill everyone else, the murderous head ghouls and, their all too enthusiastic minions.

Large groups of foreigners amassasing at the borders of this fake, chemically polluted, nuclear polluted and over exploited land with so many impoverished, encarcerated, homeless, hungry, ill, in debt and devatated . This phoney edifice, of democracy . The most capriciously-corrupt, government in history.

The country, that trump refers to as shithole usa. He oughta know. He has made it, so much more that way. Climate change inferno, crumbling infrastructure. Trumps heartless vows of inflamed racial hatred, state killings and concentraion camps are serious. The demented, deranged blood thirsty, old vampire Trump, is chomping at the bit, for more carnage and hatred. We have seen a lot of barbarity, in the last 60 years, in the usa but, nothing compares to this. Joe Biden is complicit in it. It is paving the way. The worst case war scenario, in this sordid impirial state. The worst human degradation possible in the usa, in many years

I look around me . I see the hundreds of homeless people, dying in the street of this part of my city. I cannot drive so I see it from the ground leve. There are thousands of homeless in my city. It is endemic in every city and town in america. I am older and disabled. I maybe homeless soon. I know i will not survive in the streets, like my disabled brother, who died 3 years ago getting run over by a car with no home. A few of my older friends evicted from these apartment because, they cannot afford rent anymore and services are being cut to the bone.
