How confidently we believe in our meanings of other people’s words! We are the shipwrecks of our understanding.

"Today the world belongs only to the stupid, the insensitive and the agitated. Today the right to live and triumph is awarded on virtually the same basis as admission into an insane asylum: an inability to think, amorality, and nervous excitability." - F. Pessoa, 1931

“Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities.”

- Voltaire

[Ina de Bree @InadeBree]

‘I had melancholy thoughts (…)
And, more than all, strangeness in my mind
A feeling that I was not for that hour,
Nor for that place.’

William Wordsworth, The Prelude, Book 3, 1850 posthumously

If you kill a man you will be tried and convicted as a murderer. If you kill thousands and call it politics congratulations! You are a leader and a conqueror.

[Anastasiia Lapatina @lapatina_]

Ukrainian mothers are writing their family contacts on the bodies of their children in case they get killed and the child survives. And Europe is still discussing gas.

@CAA_Official THE CLASH!!

[Aedon Finch @aedonfinch]

Our opinions are like bricks in masonry; each supports & is supported by others. Changing one belief means tearing down all beliefs atop it. Such demolition is hard to bear so people will rarely let that 1 brick budge. Easier to live with a skewed building, but at what cost?

[Aedon Finch @aedonfinch]

@JKottak Maybe if the cost keeps going up they’ll stop consuming it- or simply eat each other 🤷🏻‍♀️

[Aedon Finch @aedonfinch]

Chernobyl, The Holocaust, hundreds of thousands of criminal offenses by political & religious leaders, Ukraine’s invasion. From your boss to the president.

The stoicism of the common folk as we bear this persistent, growing phenomenon of people in power lying, not only to the public but to their own conscience as well, in order to achieve a goal that will benefit none other than themselves- it raises quite a few questions.

“In the long run, a hierarchical society was only possible on a basis of poverty and ignorance. The problem was how to keep the wheels of industry turning without increasing the real wealth of the world. Goods must be produced, but they must not be distributed.” (1984)

[Aedon Finch @aedonfinch]

Institutions will try to preserve the problem to which they are the solution. It's the best way to ensure their survival and growth. See planned obsolescence and the various "industrial complexes" (military, prison, pharmaceutical, etc.)

[Aedon Finch @aedonfinch]

@johncusack He is getting dangerously cocky at this point, confident that the whole world will tread carefully (as they have so far) around the whole matter. But if we've learned anything from history is that it's always pride that precedes the fall
