James 5: 1-6
Come now, you rich people, weep and wail for the miseries that are coming to you. Your riches have rotted, and your clothes are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver have rusted, and their rust will be evidence against you, and it will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up treasure during the last days. Listen! The wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, cry out, and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts. You have lived on the earth in luxury and in pleasure; you have nourished your hearts in a day of slaughter. You have condemned and murdered the righteous one, who does not resist you.
Dawg, someone find this man and throw eggs at him.
I have all the sympathy in the world for the workers here, but I fucking hate the New York Times.
This paper (like most media) enabled the 1st Trump presidency by giving him all the attention as a candidate in the 1st place.
Then they sold themselves as principled opposition and made a pretty penny doing so.
Now they’ve done all that shit again this time around.
Fuck um.
I’d bet 5 dollars on Mox and crew showing up to their homes in a taped segment in the next few weeks.
Not many, but my hope is that anyone interested enough does a little research.
Bonhoeffer’s pacifism is a complicated matter. He believed in nonviolence, but also participated in a plot to kill Hitler.
To summarize him a little…. Sometimes we need to abandon our principles to care for others. My goodness is less important than the wellbeing of those who are oppressed.
I tell people that I’m a pacifist in the same way that Bonhoeffer was.
