My first post. A quote from Shantideva.
All the joy the world contains has come through wishing happiness for others. All the misery the world contains has come from wanting pleasure for oneself.

I've been on here and the hellsite before it long enough that I end up repeating myself.
But an essential thing I need folks to internalize is whatever you allow the state to do to people you despise, it will eventually do to you.

In order to rally people, governments need enemies. They want us to be afraid, to hate, so we will rally behind them. And if they do not have a real enemy, they will invent one in order to mobilize us.

One of the most successful deceptions of our time was getting so many Americans to fear diversity more than racism, equality more than misogyny, democracy more than fascism, immigrants more than authoritarians, the poor more than corrupt billionaires, and empathy more than cruelty.

Watch this. Because this is the way: Local officials using their platform right, reaching out to the community.
Ambrocio “Enrique” Lozano, affectionately known as “the popsicle man,” was reportedly abducted in broad daylight in Culver City. Masked man. White van. Cart left behind in the street.

The deployment of federalized National Guard troops to California, without consent from local or state officials, is deeply troubling. These are tactics seen in authoritarian regimes, not in America. We want to be clear, the military should not be used to police civilians.

The woman who shouted "people will die" at Joni Ernst, India May, is a nurse and a librarian who first got involved in politics by going to a town hall about bills aiming to defund libraries.
Now she's running for state house.

FRIDAY: South Park, San Diego, neighbors weren’t having it. When ICE rolled up on an Italian restaurant in unmarked cars and started grabbing workers, the community hit the streets.

Unbelievable!
Today, San Diego witnessed a government-sanctioned kidnapping. ICE stormed Buona Forchetta in military gear ripping workers away, then unleashing tear gas and smoke on the terrified community. Full on police state, fascism now used on American citizens. Stay aware.

7-year-old Kiatsumi from Peru saw a Mexican family struggling at a U.S. airport—and stepped in to help with her bilingual superpowers.
“Mom, I can do it,” she said. And she did.
