The man implying that what we do is natural and if we just treat animals better that it's okay is no different than saying that sex is natural and then "breeding" girls/women for men's use and asserting as long as we treat them well, it's okay. It's not natural. It's exploitation and it's not okay.

Wow, listen to this former butcher! 😲 Can't believe someone from that trade is dropping truth bombs about the food industry on public TV.

Heartbreaking reality that needn't be. My heart goes to all who suffer our cruelties and deficiencies. You are loved. We won't rest until our species embodies its greater promise as a protective and nurturing force for all life on Earth. Close all slaughterhouses. End all wars. Tend to all in need.

When we close all slaughterhouses and end all wars, permanently, and tend to the needs of all in need, our species will have risen in its greater promise as a protective and nurturing force for all life on Earth. Meanwhile, my heart goes to humans and nonhumans who suffer our species' cruelties.

We are exposing cruel chicken gassing ALL ACROSS central London! Around 2 million people will see the adverts this week (likely more due to Black Friday shoppers)! 🤯 The adverts ask the public to stand against the horrific cruelty of chicken gassing by going vegan.

Dr. John Gartner weighed in on what Trump’s behavior indicates about the 79-year-old president’s increasingly unstable state of mind.

I’ve been fortunate to work on two continents, and from my experience; the most successful businesses or countries are those who are able to learn “Best Practices”! If it is healthcare or education, there are success stories to learn from! Like Finlands education system ⤵️⤵️ #DemVoice1

Please leave death and cruelty off your plate, this day and every day.

1/2 Far from possessing any degree of integrity or strength of character, in obsequious, self-serving cowardice most people choose to side with needless, gratuitous violence, the side of force breeding to kill, of eternal bloodbaths, of death, of gross injustice & tyranny We are #OneBillionScreams

2/2 If you do possess any degree of integrity, any strength of character, if ethics are in any way important to you, it is imperative that you choose to rise to a minimal level of moral decency, align your actions with your principles & stand up for what is right.

Angora rabbits will have their fur ripped from their bodies. After 2-5 years, their throats are slit 🐇

MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT THIS ANIMAL CRUELTY CAUSED BECAUSE OF YOU 😡🤬 YOU ALLOW THESE VIOLENT CONDITIONS

A total of 303 schoolchildren and 12 teachers were abducted by gunmen during an attack on St. Mary's School, a Catholic institution in north-central Nigeria's Niger state, the Christian Association of Nigeria said. n.pr/48tDOYt

‼️ Friends, this is very important. Please share to whoever this may concern, especially if you are in the United States. Ukraine wants peace. Lasting, just, sustainable peace, and not a pause before the next bloodbath. I cannot stress this enough.

France has added Musk’s Grok to an ongoing cybercrime investigation after it produced French-language posts echoing Holocaust denial about Auschwitz.

We really love this video from the Democrats. This message to the army is so essential. 💙⚖️ But honestly the video editing feels like its 2015 on Facebook. Anyone young with few editing skills and an iPhone could have done better. 🤦🏻‍♀️ The message deserved stronger impact. #Democracy

Terrific

“Trump grabbed his hand with those stubby fingers. Yellow nails. Grip like raw dough. Pulled him close into that smell,human waste and baby powder and something sweet-chemical, something rotting. Trump breathed through his mouth. Hot yeasty breath.” My newest article

Trump is a monster who loves monsters, and uses everyone else for his own benefit.

I am repulsed by those who believe that they can own another, human or nonhuman, and do whatever they want to them, even kill them. It is a sickness that needs to rooted from our collective state. Compassion along with the rights of humans and nonhumans need to be "taught" in public schools.

Moskowitz: The puppy had a name. Say its name! Cricket! I would now like to do a spirited reading from the book by our Secretary of Homeland Security: I hated that dog…

90% of hourly wage earners and 60% of salaried make less than $29/hr. AI says it is not enough for basic needs. Most young people do not have a chance to rise into their own on their own. And many elderly are working until death. We are subsidizing the predator class with our lives. It's enough.

'We the people' have subsidized a predator class with our lives and that of our children since the onset of capitalism. Truth is, there is no reason for a free people to stand under the same flag except to better care for each other. It's time to forge a commons worthy of every child born into it.

Dean Blundell’s got the internet melting down again with the the Epstein email “correction”! When powerful people rush to edit the record without denying anything… it’s not subtle. #ReleaseEverything #USDemocracy #Pinks deanblundell.substack.com/p/epsteins-p...

My Sunday message to the human species: Close all slaughterhouses. End all wars. Choose universal compassion.

The use of sentient species in our efforts toward mass survival has outlived its need. In its needlessness is the very definition of cruelty. The horror that we inflict in factory farms rates with war and the rapes, killings, and brutality that go with it. Close all slaughterhouses. End all wars.

Today

When I heard about this 50 year mortgage, I was inflamed because I have always hated the way that repayment of a mortgage is structured. So I asked: How much interest on an average new home loan would a mortgage holder pay at the current interest rate with a 30 year mortgage and a 50 year mortgage?

You tell me..how is this not r a p e ? 👺 Forcibly impregnating a female pig slave like this? What have we become? A sick failed species? We can do better and we know it. Why are you still part of this? Live #vegan don’t buy food from r a p e abuse and murder 🙏

Enough is enough. Contact your Democratic senators TODAY and tell them to call for Senator Schumer to step aside as Minority Leader. We desperately need new leadership in the Democratic Party.

The best thing centrist Ds can do for our country is to partner with old school Rs to take over Trump's party. Trump did it in a flash. They can, too. Centrist Ds and old-school Rs should constitute the right. It's time for a truly compassion-based inclusive left to take over the Democratic party.

Cradle-to-grave debt. Instead of reducing the cost of housing and the huge interest that is paid before the principal barely budges and increasing wages, they're working on 50 year mortgages. It is a way to keep housing costs high and make even more from mortgages. And they'll hail it as good.

It's time to share this again. Every federal agency was created to PROTECT CITIZENS from threats WE DEMANDED they do so. We were DYING from corporate greed! Corporations pay for these agencies. It cuts into their profits. Don't let GOP end protections our parents & grandparents fought for.👇🏻

i’ve seen enough horrific animal torture to last many lifetimes. Some give me nightmares. But still I look; I hold silent vigil for the billions of innocent lives lost each year.

Here in Atlanta yesterday, more than 2,000 people waited in their cars—one woman for 14 hours—for a box of food. The giveaway ended early; there wasn't enough to go around. Multiply this scene by countless others across the country, and you get a sense of how crushing the desperation is right now.

The Oregon Department of Justice submitted multiple video exhibits showing federal officers using extreme force against nonviolent protesters outside the U.S. Immigration & Customs Building. This is part of its effort to block the federal deployment of National Guard troops to Portland.

🩸🩸🩸 I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the POS 34x convicted felon, DEADLY INSURRECTIONIST, adjudicated rapist & pedophile Donald Trump did 🩸🩸🩸

So sweet.

I'm no authority on Hell, but if it does exist, people denying hungry people food and those celebrating those who do are a shoo-in.

But we need you. Call your federal officials at 202-224-3121 and tell them to release the SNAP funding.

Three words, Dems: Hold. The. Line.

Good. Give it right back to them. Everywhere. Every time.

I don't know if the Portland folks, and others promoting the 'resist frog' on apparel, know that 'pepe the frog' is a symbol of right-wing extremists. It's recognized as a hate symbol by the ADL. No harm intended. I am just concerned about potential confusion. Thanks. www.bbc.com/news/world-u...
