Rui Carlos da Cunha, everyone. The @StereoRooster.

"For the chorus are beside me observing the conflict and occasionally hurling back insults as insightful remarks when necessary. As a chorus in a Greek tragedy and not a call and response chorus in a church setting. The chorus are other people. But as Sartre said, so is hell."
"Sometimes I pass these words etched in concrete as I walk past. They say something simple but difficult to achieve in our everyday dealings with the world around us: 'Take care of each other.'"
"Nothing but these words will remain, marks in the sand along the shoreline of the beach, washed away with the tides." ~ @StereoRooster

@AlexKentTN @MrOlmos Are they armed? Because who knows, perhaps that's grounds for a self-defense plea.
@AlexKentTN @MrOlmos Does anyone from a nearby state feel threatened by the fascists parading around in New York City? Because apparently, if you're a white male, you may possess the right to defend yourself with lethal force.
@AlexKentTN @MrOlmos What about cops? If someone feels threatened by a cop, can that someone now execute that cop on grounds of self-defense? Cops are armed and dangerous, and they've been methodically attacking hippies and people of color throughout the entire history of this country.

@adamjohnsonNYC The entire discussion here, beginning w/center v. periphery, is a complete clusterfuck of illogic and brain vomit that doesn't take into account the historical context of the left/right political, linguistic device. Left is anyone other than the rich, the clergy, the monarchs.
@adamjohnsonNYC Anyone who swears fealty to those in positions of authority, authoritarians, is right. Anyone who supports decisions, events or policies to protect and advance the interests of the remainder of the people is left. There is no "center."
@adamjohnsonNYC Government, society and state are parts of the landscape, and their various organs are claimed by either the in-group, authoritarians, or the out-group, the remainder of the people. These distinctions become more severe during moments of extreme inequality as a matter of course.

@iffishX @MargaretAtwood 1) No one has claimed that it's "legitimate to counter the arguments of 'Terfs' with violence"; straw man, passive aggressive ad hominem. 2) You suggest trans activists are the intolerant when its widely understood that they're targets of violent prejudice.
@iffishX @MargaretAtwood 3) Popper communicates a sentiment that many are uncomfortable recognizing, yet should be abundantly clear to someone like @MargaretAtwood; namely, you can't win a debate with a fascist because he'll consistently employ deceit to confuse the audience and embellish his ego . . .
@iffishX @MargaretAtwood while plotting to kill you. 4) Appeals to civil discourse are being used to censor justified anger covering a variety of issues including but not limited to income inequality, white supremacy, corruption and discrimination against trans people.

"Humans believe to have faith, for faith leads to great hope in possibility
Even belief without reason can guide people to achieve great success
Trouble is . . . faith has no foundation to succeed in itself for people . . ." ~ @StereoRooster

"Order the universe as you choose for the stars become constellations
For then constellations guide our navigation in darkness through the world
Body is all we know, all else is accident, thoughts arise from thin air . . ." ~ @StereoRooster

"Mind is not clay to shape but a vessel given by our uncertainty
In order to accept our inability to foretell the future
Nothing but language games and blockages of thought that hamper our actions . . ." ~ @StereoRooster

"Helpless from the get-go, we humans are hapless, lacking in good fortune.
Even Adam and Eve were burdened with bad faith, their small demographic.
Desperate souls deserve fine accommodations, better than the cold streets." ~ @StereoRooster

"Horrible your absence, our friendship ends in tears, I lost you forever.
Even though people die, you didn't have to go, your problems weren't so bad.
Maybe I could help you still by helping others in your predicament." ~ @StereoRooster

"Monsters create our minds, our minds create monsters, imagine hell on earth.
Yet, I'm not a monster though I lost my soul, then and accepted my role.
Perpetrators suffer in their isolation, they play a role as well." ~ @StereoRooster

@progressntwrk Not really. I just followed the link to your website and read words, and words are my specialty.
@progressntwrk Oh! Perhaps you're referring to my research! My research into Capitalism and the Engineered Starvation of 1893: how Capitalists hoarded gold to starve to death and impoverish an entire swath of the American public that included the original American Left.

@progressntwrk Perhaps we should illuminate your founder, @zacharykarabell. Maybe @victorperton can slap a fresh coat of gloss on all those poor immigrants who trampled each other to death for bread in the neighborhoods my family has called home since the late nineteenth century.
