The Pope tweets: "The poor are not there by chance or by blind and cruel fate. Nor, for most of them, is poverty a choice. Yet, there are those who still presume to make this claim, thus revealing their own blindness and cruelty. #DilexiTe"
Someone replies: "I was so hopeful I could be a Catholic again after the disaster that Francis was, guess we just get Francis 2.0 now and I am heartbroken. How do I stay a Catholic now...I don't want to lose faith but I am. You belong to someone else, not God."
heartbroken to learn the pope sympathizes with the poor. how can i continue to believe in god

#BREAKING : The Australian Parliament Sports Club has just DE-REGISTERED itself as a lobby group... despite still being run by the Australian gambling lobby.
The change relieves our PM from having to explain why he's the PRESIDENT of an organisation designed to lobby HIS OWN GOVERNMENT.

I'm genuinely irked by the AUS Labor Govt MPs posting cringeworthy TikToks boasting about the Albanese Labor Govt. They're giving such strong ScoMo empty announcement vibes. Plus they're noticeably silent on all the things Labor ISN'T doing. Ugh. π #auspol

Hi @npr.org! We worked late tonight putting together this handy pocket guide!
It doesn't address road design issues, but if we're going to educate road users, we should include drivers.

headline in my inbox: "The War on Tylenol". Except that it isn't? It's a eugenicist war on pregnant people, blaming them and their medical caregivers for autism, which the eugenicists regard as a fate worse than death. Focusing on Tylenol hides that fact.

Today, 16th September 2025, will go down in history, as the day the United Nations concluded there is a GENOCIDE.
People will remember those who supported, the corrupted leaders of the west who funded this genocide in the eyes of the entire world.

Charlie Kirk spent his life making people like me unsafe. His followers sent me death threats for years and threatened my employer if they didnβt terminate me.
His work was NEVER about free speech. It was about hate and emboldening violent people. The dishonesty of the past 24hrs is disgusting.
