Every Nation Should Reject Trump’s Dangerous β€˜Board Of Peace’ - PopularResistance.Org The so-called β€œBoard of Peace” being created by President Donald TrumpΒ is profoundly degrading to the pursuit of peace and to any nation that would lend it legitimacy. This is a trojan horse to dismantle theΒ United Nations. It should be refused outright by every nation invited to join. In itsΒ Charter, the Board of Peace (BoP) claims to be an β€œinternational organization that seeks to promote stability, restore dependable and lawful governance, and secure enduring peace in areas affected or threatened by conflict.” If this sounds familiar, it should, because this is the mandate of the United Nations.

And we have yet another senseless regime change war, this time in #Venezuela... Our 'leaders'' endless war fetish makes me sick. Nothing has changed since #MarkTwain wrote The War Prayer. So much for the self-proclaimed 'Peace President.' www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9gR...

The True Lessons of Augustus Gloop How Fatphobia Is Taught at Storytime

This is a very important point, and well-written. I have noticed, for example, how even journalists I like will make fun of the weight of corrupt political figures they dislike, as if the weight of these people has anything to do with their corruption. open.substack.com/pub/thickmeu...
