Demilitarize the Toronto Air Show - World BEYOND War
The Toronto air show is blatant advertising for militarism, war, and violence, it re-traumatizes victims of war, and its ear-splitting noise disturbs residents across the city over the Labour Day long...
Every year I hope people will stop supporting this f*cking stupid, waste of time, planet-killing, soul-destroying, celebration of militarism & war, and every year...I hope people will stop supporting this f*cking stupid, waste of time, planet-killing, soul-destroying...
