A quotation from Hannah Arendt
The chief difference between the despotic and the totalitarian secret police lies in the difference between the “suspect” and the “objective enemy.” The latter is defined by the policy of the government and not by his own desire to overthrow it. He is never an individual whose dangerous thoughts must be provoked or whose past justifies suspicion, but a “carrier of tendences” like the carrier of a disease. Practically speaking, the totalitarian ruler proceeds like a man who persistently insults another man until everybody knows that the latter is his enemy, so that he can, with some plausibility, go and kill him in self-defense.
Hannah Arendt (1906-1975) German-American philosopher, political theorist
Origins of Totalitarianism, Part 3, ch. 12 “Totalitarianism in Power,” sec. 1 (1951)More about this quote: wist.info/arendt-hannah/54483/

To declare oneself a follower of Jesus is not only to insult history and reason but to apologize for the murderers of Arius, Molinos and Cranmer, the persecutors of science, the upholders of slavery and the suppressors of all free thought and speech. https://library.hrmtc.com/2026/04/23/to-declare-oneself-a-follower-of-jesus-is-not-only-to-insult-history-and-reason-but-to-apologize-for-the-murderers-of-arius-molinos-and-cranmer-the-persecutors-of-science-the-upholders-of-slavery-a/ #aleisterCrowley #all #apologize #Arius #book #declare #follower #freeSpeech #freeThought #hermeneuticon #history #iconomancy #insult #jesus #MiguelDeMolinos #Molinos #Murderers #notOnly #oneself #persecutors #quote #reason #science #slavery #speech #suppressors #TheConfessionsOfAleisterCrowley #ThomasCranmer #Thought #upholders -

"Trump's signature is set to start adorning new U.S. dollars later this year, a change that the Treasury Department said was in honor of America's 250th anniversary."
In honor of the vanity of one person. 🙄

Sometimes the poor are praised for being thrifty. But to recommend thrift to the poor is both grotesque and insulting. It is like advising a man who is starving to eat less.

I used to think the world was broken down by tribes,' I said. 'By Black and White. By Indian and White. But I know this isn't true. The world is only broken into two tribes: the people who are assholes and the people who are not.
