A poem dedicated to Rev. Budde
The preacher said to the president, “have mercy on their souls” “There’s kids out there really scared and your policy takes a toll” But the president didn’t like the preacher, and he did well in the polls Telling people he’d deport my friends and fill Arabs full of holes We like to think the world will change when the right guy finally runs Then we’ll mourn our sin in electing him when a genocide, he funds There’s nothing sacred about our state; there’s nothing new under the sun A righteous leader would help the people; we know that’ll never be done The preacher’s words fell on deaf ears the day she took the pulpit The case for Trump’s eternal soul—I’m afraid we’ll never solve it He’s playing with so many lives like a child in a ball pit How many balls will spill out? I don’t think we’ve ever call it A camel through a needle’s eye or a hummer through a hoop The rich stand no chance of heaven’s light, to new lows they always stoop There’s no stopping greed and hate when mercy has flown the coop From the Dems back to the GOP, we’re stuck in one scary loop If we cared, we’d all rise up and demand monumental change But there’s so much apathy among our people; revolution’s not in range We did not stop a genocide; we would not turn the page The preacher cries for mercy; the president puts us in a cage

1. Never once thought China was a socialist utopia and that neoliberalism wasn't a play--just that China is doing more for its citizens

2. White-passing, not white

3. I've updated my thoughts about this in a new post

4. Thanks for educating me on a few things.
A screenshot of Zeinadine's post (@cosmiczee.bsky.social). The hammer and sickle emoji is next to the name. America has a population of about 337 million. We have over 653,000 homeless. China has a population of about 1.4 billion. They have about 300,000 homeless. China may not have actually "eradicated" extreme poverty, but they're clearly doing better than America. We should be learning from them

Proud to say that I went down the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to communism pipeline, and I can't find my way back.

"The Three Evils of Society" remains my favorite speech by him to this day.
A black and white photo of MLK facing the camera with his hand raised is overlaid with this tex: We are called to play the Good Samaritans on life's roadside, but that will only be an initial act. One day the whole Jericho road must be transformed so men and women cannot be beaten and robbed as they make their journeys through life. True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar. It understands that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring. -Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in his speech, "The Three Evils of Society," given at the National Conference for New Politics Convention on August 31st, 1967

It's painfully obvious that we're an oligarchy and the rich are pulling the strings of the empire, but it feels rather ominous and supremely dystopian that the literal richest man on the planet is now a part of conversations happening between world leaders.
There photos in one image--profiles of Donald Trump,Elon Musk, and and Volodymyr Zelenskyy. The caption reads: NEW TONIGHT: SOURCE: ELON MUSK JOINED TRUMP-ZELENSKY CALL AFTER ELECTION
