Unfortunately, the wealthy want even more money because greed is a mental illness.

Voting for a party out of resentment is such an incredibly dumb thing to do.

Morality always matters. Religious people think that they have a monopoly on the subject but they would be wrong.

A sense of basic human morality is something most people can understand, but it must be rooted in a secular society & applied equally. Otherwise, it fails.

Thank you, Ms. Neiman, for calling what is happening for what it is- EVIL. It does exist, and it is one of our greatest problems as humans- how to recognize and prevent it from coming into power.

The most shocking aspect of the entire fascistic episode of the Trump regime has been the supine response, if it even registers as a response, from the Democratic party. Pearl clutching and being critical in Committee is not the requisite response to masked thugs kidnapping people off the street without the faintest nod to any legal consideration and then delivering the abducted to for profit concentration camps where we are charged for this injustice at 75$ per abductee per day. The requisite response in shutting the government down, returning to on'e's district and leading mass civil disobedience until this shit stops. What we did in Venezuela, the bombings of boats, the attacks on Iran while we were in negotiations with them. There is ZERO opposition to any of these war crimes.

Well reserved words for the AFD drama and time will tell with oversight, right?<br>She makes a sensible argument and we as the USA need to take a good look at ourselves with oversight from the Top down, for the future.

You'd think a person who's so publicly opposed to evil wouldn't voluntarily work for the University of Tel Aviv for years.
