Karl Popper explained ... If a society extends tolerance to the intolerant, it risks the eventual dominance of intolerance. A truly tolerant society must deny tolerance to those who promote intolerance. Unchecked intolerant ideologies destroy tolerance through authoritarian practices.

My neighbor loves red. His house and car are red; his clothes also. I'm not so fond of red; I prefer green. I see his red and say, "meh, not for me." I live my life; his red choices don't affect me. Every now and then, he paints my house red. I politely ask him to stop. he says fuck you

Some practical advice from Queen Koddi: "Stop selling them your time until they agree to basic standards favoring employees over the board; this in tandem with lower profits creates pressure; they give in or fail. Turn away from media; learn practical skills; become the handiest you, you can be"

Stop selling them your time until they agree to meet a basic standard that favors employees wellbeing over the board room, this in tandem with lower profits creates pressure, they give in or fail. Turn off the TV/phone & learn some practical skills become the handiest man or lady you can be

Boycott Resist Rebel Revolt Be ungovernable

Republicans worked for years, operating outside the Constitution, to steal elections, steal judge appointments, steal media control, and steal the nation. Trump is beyond horrible. But he is the living dream of every single fascist Republican your politicians your friends your family your lover

We need something more powerful and immediate ... REAL action ... not talk; not symbolic; not marching; not protesting; not donating; not calling representatives ... ACTION

Ideas and actions. Ideas about what actions each of us can do to bring down the authoritarian regime. What have you? Share ... let us all know!

Everyone involved with this fascist regime should be ... - served warrants - arrested - charged - prosecuted - found completely 100% guilty (d'uh) - stripped of all assets - stripped of US citizenship - permanenetly exiled - their families along with them Goodbye; good luck; don't EVER come back!

"In the realm of economics, mathematical models are used to create equitable policies that promote social welfare. Progressive tax systems (ensure those who can afford to pay more, do so) help reduce economic inequality, a major source of conflict in many societies." dailytrust.com/mathematics-...

Wowsers The USA Citizens and Residents protesting against ICE are amazing. Complete restraint in the face of fascist brutality. Consider the number of weapons in US circulation, yet not one ICE thug - not a single one - has been wounded or killed in the citizens' defense or retaliation. Amazing

When you see Bondi, Noem, Patel, Homan, Miller, Vance, Trump, Lutnick, Cruz, Johnson - and all the rest of that repugnant bunch - and you see them devoid of any humanity, filled with hatred, contempt, arrogance, and downright evil ... and you think ... how? who? why? The answer is the GOP

All of the criminals infesting the government must be guilty of violating some state law somewhere. So, any governor could get a warrant for their arrest. Minnesota governor ? What are you waiting for? Crimes were committed in your state; you have suspects. Charge them, arrest them; hold them.

Why, does it seem, that crime, violence, and destruction happen so comparatively quickly and provide great satisfaction to the criminals, while justice, peace, and construction take so very long and are often - not always - unsatisfying results.

We The People need to repeatedly declare this government ILLEGITIMATE on these grounds: 1. It violates the Constitution and Our Inalienable rights daily, and 2. We do not consent and all governments derive their just powers from consent of the governed.

Any state, say Minnesota, can investigate anything of concern. If Trump were to interfere, he would be breaking a state law, from which he does not have immunity. The state can issue a warrant, arrest, and charge; then begin court procedings. They could also ask the Virgin Islands to investigate.

Governor Albert Bryan, Jr - a Democrat - is the governor of the US Virgin Islands. He has legal control over the islands, including Little Saint James - a.k.a. "Epstein Island." Gordon C Rhea is the attorney general. The two of them could investigate the island for evidence and missing persons

No matter what happens next or the next distraction or the next outrage or the next group of lies or the next dem failure or the next bit of dirt from the epstein files or the next set of laws ignored by ice, trump, republicans, cabinet members my response is the same: What action do we take

Here on Blu, we've seen multiple references to Mike Johnson's Grindr account. I think it's only a hoax. Sure, Johnson is a hate-worthy fascist minion of the evil regime, but these empty threats seem to be empty. I say, if it's true, and if you've got the evidence, show it; bring him down now.

NAME THE ACTION ! In many of my posts, I've tried to offer actual actions that individuals, groups, or elected representatives could / should do. What ideas do you have? Spell it out. Tell everyone what they should do. Be specific. Ok ... let's see it ...

"We gather our minds to greet and thank the enlightened Teachers who have come to help throughout the ages. When we forget how to live in harmony, they remind us of the way we were instructed to live as people. With one mind, we send greetings and thanks to the caring teachers." ...

Ol' orange drumpfy is a classless bully and a traitorous coward ... but he is ruled by his ego. How 'bout some senior martial arts folks - preferably women - challenge him to a friendly sparring match; get in the ring; show how big, strong, and tough he is? He won't accept, because he's a coward.

So, it would appear Trump - and others - are pedophiles, traffikers, and accomplices to murders (plural) They are more awful than I would have imagined, and this is only six pages of collected complaints from the Epstein files. Let the truth come out; let the victims have justice.

The broader historical view show us that whenever dems are timid, play to the center, or offer up republican-lite, they lose. Because, the progressives don't bother voting when their agenda is ignored; young voters are apathetic when there is no effective choice; and the dems looks weak. crush ice

Not too many folks here on Blu are Drumpf supporters. If you are, however, the rest of us want you to know that you are soaked through to your black charred soul ... with the despair, anguish, suffering, blood, and death... of those targeted by Drumpf and his evil minions. We shall not forget.

Delighted to hear Philly is getting on board with charging, arresting, and prosecuting Federal agents for criminal violations. Any state can issue an arrest warrant, and another state can honour it and extradite the accused. Minnesota should issue warrants. No safe haven for ICE.

In the state of Minnesota, A private person may provide a sworn complaint of criminal conduct to law enforcement or a prosecutor. The prosecutor or law enforcement may then use that complaint as the basis for seeking a warrant from a judge. People of Minnesota, start providing sworn complaints.

Democrats - in Congress and in the States - seem unable to ACT. Let me lay it out for you: 1. Fully assert states' rights. 2. Issue orders that ICE must leave your state. 3. If they fail to comply, arrest them. 4. Hold them without bail. 5. If the feds send more troops, arrest them too.

Look at the USA 😑 Trump and all republicans are stealing data, privacy, and billions; their illegal gestapo is openly terrorizing and murdering people - in the streets, in broad daylight, in front of cameras. Meanwhile, the democrats offer some comments and verbal outrage. WTF ?!?

I wonder if the midterm elections will happen. Sure, ICE is pushing the citizens beyond the breaking point, supported by lies, lies, law-breaking, and more lies. But even if the people stand strong and avoid violence, Trump will find a way to stop the vote he would lose. And, Epstein files.

Don't fall for the Tolerance Paradox Is it really good to always let people do and say whatever they want, even if it means some people will use that freedom to harm others? Delve deeper here: philosophyterms.com/paradox-of-t...

This is what we are struggling against - so called "leftists" supporting right-wing fascism. Absolute traitors

When did the crisis begin? At the very latest, with Nixon, but truly long before that. It began with depriving the citizens of food, healthcare, education, living wages, and simple human respect. Republicans have ALWAYS been fascists. Now, they are fulfilling their dreams.

A while ago, I offered up this article. The number of ethical politicians needed to save the Nation is now down to 25. But the point is still the same. Pressure your congressional representatives to act. We will not make it to the midterms. theuntenuredprofessor.wordpress.com/letters/exac...
