"Approximately 6 million Jews died at the hands of the Nazis. Approximately 12 million slaves were transported to America, and approximately 40% died en route. That means that approximately 4 million blacks died, which does not include those that died at the hands of their masters. Also, many millions of American Indians died through European expansion. In Germany it is illegal to even make the Nazi salute. In America the Confederate flag flies above at least one state capital and it is displayed on millions of license plates. Tell me again, which nation is the Christian one?"

"He makes his money the same way I make my money. He makes money by moving around big bucks, not by straining his back and going to work cleaning the toilets or whatever it may be. He makes it shoving around money. I make it shoving around money."

"[I]t is illegal for women to go topless in most cities, yet you can buy a magazine of a woman without her top on at any 7-11 store. So, you can sell breasts, but you cannot wear breasts, in America."

Bookscapes by Guy Laramee

Utilizing obsolete encyclopedias and other heavy texts, Guy makes them relevant again by repurposing them as traversible landscapes for tiny people. Or fleas maybe.

Religious people want you to believe both that #religion isn’t used to propagate war and that “there are no #atheists in foxholes.”

Taken from the Honest Girl Scouts campaign. For a campaign trying to get people /not/ to buy cookies and /not/ support the GSUSA, this is doing an awful lot to suddenly make me want /to/ support the GSUSA. (and I’m saying this a a former Girl Scout of about 6 years who hasn’t bought cookies in years because they’re too expensive). 

I see so much acceptance here, and especially in a time in children’s lives where acceptance is so important, taking that away from them is just cruel.

If you don’t have a niece or young neighbor, plug in your ZIP code here to find a pro-abortion feminist-minded little girl to sell you some sweet, sweet progressive cookies.

U.S. production is up, while wages remain stagnant. That means that while workers continue to work long, hard hours bringing more profit to corporations, rather than “trickling down” those profits into the wages of the workers, executives are keeping their profits in the hands of stockholders. Less wages mean less buying power in an economy where the price of products, education, food, medicine and housing accommodation grows. This pattern cannot continue without an eventual and painful crash for millions of hard working citizens. 
It’s not whining or entitlement, it’s math and foresight.

Bingo! Perfectly said.

"Am I arguing that girls and women shouldn’t be held responsible for their behaviour? Not at all. If a woman drinks to excess, then falls over in the street, loses her wallet and vomits all over her shirt, she has only herself to blame. But rape is not a consequence of getting drunk. It’s a consequence of a man deciding to rape someone."
