War robs us of those we love. War robs us of our humanity. War is the failure of thinking human brains.

I think a lot of thinking goes on. Like, "how am I going to spend all the money I'm making from all the wars?" I don't think they are accidents or failures of imagination. They are designed carnage. Thanks 💞

I can't open your speech. I was banned for life from Facebook for my violations of its "Community Standards" (Read: Posting antiwar and Twitter Files anti-censorship articles). Is the text available for incorrigibles like me?

It plays for me without logging in to Facebook. I'm on a PC. Not sure if that matters.

Thanks. The PC works, but then I didn't scroll past the FP dialogue opening box. It probably would have worked on the mobile if I had.

Great commentary, and thank you for quoting Eugene V Debs. It turns out that we're all "Socialists," but some of the "Socialists" think that they're more entitled than the rest of us.

Not sure if capitalism is the problem. It’s just a tool used by those filled with greed and spite to conquer the people who are consumed by fear and apathy.
