Humanist for a 'type 1' civilisation powered by our solar system and an end to wars/conflict due to ideology and disease because ignorance is never a choice. Education to inform and democracy to make informed decisions. No, to sociopaths to promote hatred.

You won't have seen it on the News but right now Israel is destroying 600,000 homes in Lebanon, to move 2m out of 22% of Lebanon, so they can steal it all for themselves. A war crime not seen since Hitler, or Gaza.

Even after its editorial board called the decision "a mind-boggling piece of judicial overreach," with this headline, the #BrokenTimes news desk insists on covering modern Jim Crow from the perspective of the racist right.

It is deeply disappointing that the UK Government has decided not to allow this legislation to proceed at this stage. This delay will be very difficult for many terminally ill people on the Isle of Man and for their families, who had hoped this Bill would provide greater choice and dignity.

100% religious selection in schools drives racial segregation, separating children from different backgrounds and undermining social cohesion. Schools should be places where young people learn to live alongside others from all walks of life, not institutions that deepen divisions.

So long as state-funded faith schools are allowed to select pupils on the basis of religion, the system will continue to separate children from different backgrounds rather than bringing them together.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

If you paid taxes for 2025, you likely paid: $124 — school lunch & nutrition programs $49 — diplomacy to prevent wars $19 — USPS $19 — Federal Aviation Administration $18 — national parks and $4,049 — weapons and war. These priorities are hurting us all. We need change. #TaxDay

Disney's new CEO, whose pay package is worth nearly $45M, just announced 1,000 layoffs. Reminder that Disney paid an effective federal income tax rate of ZERO in 2025 and aims to buy back $7B of its own stock in 2026. This is what corporate greed looks like.
