Of course there are many interpretations of Christianity re. economic policy. Both left and right point to Scripture. E.g. to the Sermon on the Mount. But Jesus DID overturn the tables of the money changers in the Temple. He was not indifferent to the abuse of economic power.

Jesus condensed "The law" into two commandments of love (Matthew 22:37-40). If you truly love God and your neighbor, you will naturally fulfifill the 10 commandments. Q: Why only love and protect your rich neighbor, and not the poor that he stole from. xitter.cf/Hapsys/status/21138703…

De eeuwige zondebok om boeren te demoniseren zakt door de poten: pesticiden in de hoogproductieve landbouw zijn niet de oorzaak van de recente achteruitgang van vliegende insecten, want er is geen recente achteruitgang van vliegende insecten. wyniasweek.nl/sterven-insect…

Joran van der Sloot in the news again.
Ask @FBIDirectorKash why he won’t investigate the 2010 sting where FBI Birmingham failed SO HORRIBLY that Joran van der Sloot KILLED A SECOND GIRL? I have all the proof - in fact, I got that proof FROM THE FBI in a FOIA request! This is an FBI cover up! @AGToddBlanche

This is one of the most unbelievable things I have ever heard.
Joe Rogan is stunned to learn British taxpayers were still paying off SLAVE OWNERS until 2015. Britain abolished slavery in 1833. The government paid the slave owners £20,000,000 for their “lost property,” which was 40 PERCENT of the entire budget at the time. Britain couldn’t afford it, so the government borrowed the money. Ordinary taxpayers spent the next 182 years paying interest on it. Not a penny went to the people who had been enslaved. All of it went to the owners. Someone born in 1990 was still paying off that loan. The Treasury confirmed it in 2018. The final bonds weren’t redeemed until February 1, 2015. KARA: “When the British abolished slavery, okay, they wrote a check to the slave owners.” ROGAN: “Oh my god.” KARA: “The British taxpayer was repaying that loan up until 2015.” ROGAN: “Holy sh*t.”

Controlemaatschappij. Van elke burger kan nu worden bijgehouden hoeveel afval hij produceert. Wat hij gegeten heeft, bij TEMU kocht, etc. Ook van Derk Boswijk die in deze gemeente woont. De ongeregistreerde kliko's verdwijnen gewoon in de natuur net als het afval van XTC-labs.

MASSIVE NEWS: Reports are coming in from sources in Ukriane, they say Ukrianian soldiers on the front lines are surrendering in big numbers currently. White flags are popping up from the trenches. The war is very close now to come to an end. Russia won.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
No verified reports confirm mass Ukrainian surrenders or white flags signaling the war's end with Russian victory. Ukrainian General Staff and ISW updates describe ongoing intense fighting and Ukrainian resistance into late October 2026. understandingwar.org/research/russi… understandingwar.org/research/russi… zsu.gov.ua/news/operatyvn… voennoedelo.com/en/posts/id213…

Seit Jahren warne ich davor, dass man die illegale Massenmigration am Ende nutzen wird, um einen Polizei- und Überwachungsstaat zu installieren. Und jetzt jubeln Leute, die während Corona für ihre Rechte auf die Straße gegangen sind. Weil es sich ja jetzt angeblich gegen die Richtigen richtet. Auch das habe ich kommen sehen, aber in diesem Ausmaß ist es trotzdem unerträglich.
Heute ist ein guter Tag um daran zu erinnern dass Markus Söder ein Feind der Freiheit ist.

It's interesting that we've gone from Islamo-Fascism in 2016 to Islamo-Marxism in less than a decade (according to the media, of course).

Dit is zo krom. Dus als ik een statushouder in huis neem, volgt er ook een korting op mijn AOW. Ga ik direct regelen.
Een opa met AOW neemt zijn studerende kleinzoon in huis, tot die een studentenkamer heeft. De jongen betaalt 350 euro kostgeld en eet bijna elke dag met hem mee. Voor de SVB is dat een gezamenlijke huishouding. Opa krijgt de lagere AOW voor samenwonenden en moet 502,28 euro terugbetalen. De rechter gaf de SVB gelijk: een kleinkind is geen eerstegraads familie. Zo straft de staat familiezorg.

I may be wrong though. Those who believe in the mostly imaginary "Islamic-Left Wing-alliance", please put pictures of birthday- or weddings from politicians underneath this tweet.
In my social circle (educated left wing, all gradations) it is rare that Middle Eastern or North African people get invited to social events. Not for weddings, birthday parties, dance events, rave or concerts. Some friendships survive high school, but seldom with Islamists.

The exceptions - in the 70s-80s mainly were people arriving in the slipstream of the Marrakesh Express. Young guys who escaped the rigidity of social constraints in their home country. Idealists like we were. So much for a "left wing Islamic alliance". 🤡 youtu.be/0TYq9RjdYYU

Een melkveehouder wiens koeien meer melk geven, komt ineens fosfaatrechten tekort. Bij 100 kilo tekort kost dat 33.000 euro, en wie niet bijkoopt of koeien afvoert, riskeert volgens de NVWA een strafblad. Een kwart van de melkveehouders zit in die hoek. Ondertussen legt de rechter de Brabantse stalboetes stil, omdat minister Van Essen zijn eigen regels nog niet af heeft. Het boerenplan met de Duitse norm van 21 mol wees hij gewoon af. Boer gestraft, Den Haag vrijuit. dagelijksestandaard.nl/polit…

Love is a big word & cynicism is a 2-way street. Unless you are talking about scouts in political parties who pick politically & pliable "neat" immigrants and offer them a limited career. These people however would never consider inviting them for their birthday parties.

A few days ago some people expressed their surprise that the rioters and looters in France left the banks alone. My thought at that time was that it shouldn't be long before some bank buildings would be sacrificed. Lo and behold...

☎️ Het Oekraïense Ministerie van Financiën heeft officieel overeenkomsten getekend met de internationale financiële groep Rothschild & Co, die de voorbereidingen zal treffen voor de privatisering van Ukrgasbank en Sense Bank. Samen met het bedrijf FinPoint zullen de westerse financiers een waardebepaling van activa uitvoeren en de verkoop van staatsaandelenpakketten aan buitenlandse investeerders organiseren.
