One Must Doubt Everything

There is no real truth, only abstractions and better theories. What we know for sure is that we know nothing for sure. -- Morality is a human construct to justify unjust enrichment and survival so others can be sacrificed for the good of an elite few, those who make the rules and own too much. Being progressive implies moving forward, toward better solutions, but change which benefits only those who own the most isn't progressive at all; it is a regressive, backwards moving wrong turn, both immoral and unjust. Doubt everything. Life may just be a computer simulation. There are no absolutes in this quantum physical reality. After all, what really is reality?

"War has always diminished our freedom. When our freedom has expanded, it has not come as a result of war or of anything the government has done but as a result of what citizens have done." -- "Civil disobedience is not our problem. Our problem is civil obedience. Our problem is that numbers of people all over the world have obeyed the dictates of the leaders of their government and have gone to war, and millions have been killed because of this obedience. . . Our problem is that people are obedient all over the world in the face of poverty and starvation and stupidity, and war, and cruelty. Our problem is that people are obedient while the jails are full of petty thieves, and all the while the grand thieves are running and robbing the country. That's our problem." - (Howard Zinn)

"The United States spends more on arms (and weapons of mass destruction) than all the other major industrial nations combined. The US military budget is about seven times greater than the $51 billion spent by Russia, the next highest competitor."

"The greatest threat to our world and its peace comes from those who want war, who prepare for it, and who, by holding out vague promises of future peace or by instilling fear of foreign aggression, try to make us accomplices to their plans."
Hermann Hesse
"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we.
They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country
and our people, and neither do we."

Life is great! Don't miss any of it. Don't try to be what you are not and never pretend to be anything but what you are. Create your own time. Enjoy every moment. Life is a precious gift. Feel deeply. Enjoy simply. Celebrate life. Think freely. Take risks. Fight back. Oppose racism and injustice. Also welcome love. Be who you really are because life is too short to do otherwise. Be stronger than your condition. Be kind. Be supportive. Walk in somebody elses shoes. Do unto others as you would have others do unto you. Above all, seek justice and do no harm.
Dirshu Mishpat
(Heb:"Seek Justice")
Experience Compassion! And, be all you can. And, don't let the bastards grind you down. There are a lot of BUBBAS in the world. Just ignore them. They're not worth your time. Everything is possible. Just do it! And, carry a big stick (a 357 Magnum works even better), just in case somebody tries to mess with you. Honor your parents, they probably did the best they could (or not) but what the hell, they were your parents.
