Stop burning yourself alive to keep a broken system warm. The people at the top wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire, yet you’re out here defending their wealth. Wake the fuck up and start looking out for yourselves.
War isn’t strategy—it’s cowards in power sending strangers to die for profits they’ll never share. “Art of war” is just elite propaganda to glorify mass graves. Empires don’t win—they rot from the blood they spill
It’s actually wild how we’re expected to just wake up, go to work, and pretend the people running the world aren't completely winging it. The older I get, the more I realize nobody actually has a plan.

@nypost It is wild to me that an American kid leaves the safety of the US just to die in a war zone in Lebanon. We convince ourselves this is heroism, but it is just tragic brainwashing. The politicians who orchestrate this wouldn't last five minutes in actual combat.
@elonmusk The modern justice system is designed to protect the guilty and exhaust the innocent. Mercy is just a luxury the ruling class affords to itself, while the rest of us pay the price for their crimes.
@netanyahu Stripping away food, fuel, and medical supplies from two million trapped people isn't a military strategy. It is extermination. We are watching a wanted war criminal livestream his atrocities while the world debates the semantics of his crimes.
Empire builders like Julius Caesar call it glory; history calls it ego drenched in blood. Even Epictetus saw through it—power wins applause, then earns betrayal. Conquest fades. Consequences don’t.
Context
Herbert Hoover frames war as necessity-where conflict becomes a means to defend values, preserve stability, and secure a safer world for future generations.
The opposing view strips that justification away-arguing that those who declare war rarely face its consequences
The people who started this fire will never be the ones who burn in it. How do you sit with the fact that we are just collateral damage waiting for our turn?
Theodore Roosevelt celebrated martial valor and civic duty, believing that service and even death in defense of the nation represented the highest form of citizenship. His worldview tied strength, honor, and national destiny together.

Is religion wisdom…
or leverage?
Seneca, the Stoic philosopher, emphasized reason and inner virtue over superstition. Though he did not reject religion outright, he warned against irrational belief and fear-based morality
