@AlliFlowers @SrRochardBunson I grew up a pastors daughter. We were Protestant until I was ten when we converted to Eastern Orthodox. I'm not trying to be rude, but from my own experiences; the idea that the rivalry between denominations (in North America at least) is even comparable to the complete dismissal of groups like Jews, Muslims or Indigenous nations, is so absurd it's almost offensive.

There’s going to be so much right-wing violence and terror next year. I don’t think people are ready for what’s coming.

Two F-15 fighter jets struck a facility used by Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and affiliated groups in retaliation for at least 38 attacks on U.S. troops between Oct. 17 and Nov. 7 in Iraq and Syria, Pentagon Press Secretary Brig. Gen. Pat Ryder said.

Republicans want to re-brand their crusade against women. Let’s review some facts:
Fact 1: multiple GOP politicians have suggested jailing women for life or executing them for having an abortion.
Fact 2: multiple GOP states have local or state laws restricting women from traveling to other states for abortions.
Fact 3: multiple states under GOP control have abortion laws with identical overly broad and scientifically illiterate text that bans life-saving emergency procedures.

Awful. There's *no excuse* for baiting/trolling/racism/antisemitism etc..
Dealing with those 'people' is frustrating and exhausting.
Wishing you a peaceful night.🕊️

Joe Biden Refuses To Resign After Democrats’ Humiliating Night Of Wins

https://www.wonkette.com/p/joe-biden-refuses-to-resign-after

Once again President Biden won the GOP debate. These Republican challengers are a sad joke. Trump will lose to Biden again—hopefully while Trump watches election returns from his prison cell.

Transgender people can be baptized in the Catholic Church and serve as godparents, per an official Vatican document published Wednesday. https://t.co/efKGtN19a2

@Balkingpoints @Bam We wouldn’t be having to do any of this had people actually listened. Unfortunately, there aren’t do overs. Hope people can remember that moving forward.

#Bosnia-#Herzegovina in the #Balkans has so many ethnic groups and divisions, #EU is asking it to speak "with one voice" as a precondition to #EUMembership.

#MiddleEast & #Ukraine aren't the only #tinderbox. Ethnic and political divisions in Bosnia-Herzegovina persist after the #genocide of over 100,000 people in the 1992-1995 #BalkanWar.

Bosnia’s #Serbs openly want to secede from Bosnia. #US and #Britain have slapped them with sanctions for harboring those ambitions.

#Ramaswamy calls #Zelensky a '#Nazi' at #RepublicanDebate.

“Presidential candidate” Vivek Ramaswamy described #Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky as a “Nazi” during the #GOP debate…, during remarks in which he also called the Ukrainian govt “undemocratic.”

#GOPDebate

No thanks, #Republicandebate, if I wanted to listen to a gaggle of try-hard racist losers yammer out stupid and demonstrably wrong shit about how society should be fixed by making it horrible I'd have gone to my high school reunion.
