like money draws the rich,
like war brings out the bombs,
like feces draws the flies.
Like power draws the cruel,
like wounds invite the salt,
like fear locks up the heart,
like greed learns how to steal.
The sun heats up the road,
the ditch begins to writhe,
the grass hides what it knows,
the stones remember blood.
A shadow slides under the fence,
a tongue divides the air,
a sermon without words,
a warning writ in scales.
The just open their doors,
the unjust oil their guns,
the children learn the rules,
the dogs refuse the crumbs.
The heat brings out the snakes,
and some of them have hands,
and some of them wear suits,
and some of them say prayers.
So I learn to watch the ground,
I learn to trust the dirt,
I learn where mercy coils,
I learn when avarice strikes.

Since we are all made up of different colours and races, it understandable if we do not share the same views, but at least we can be respectful and cultured. At least, we can try not to pretend not to acknowledge the hidden truth within us. Never act out of spite or hatred because it eats you up inside. #sociology #psychology #moralDecay

We may have progressed technologically and scientifically, but MORALLY dead! Today, almost every global institution (UN, The Hague, Amnesty International etc) has been trampled upon by EGOISTIC CHAMPIONS of change and reforms. In a way, we allowed them to dictate terms. There is a need to regain our dignity. #politics #MoralDecay #GlobalInstitutions

The Democrats’ Disastrous Shutdown Strategy: A Shameful Weaponization of Human Suffering
The government shutdown of 2025 has been one of the most shameful episodes in modern American politics, not just because of the dysfunction it exposed, but because of how both parties — especially the Democrats — turned human suffering into a political strategy. For over 40 days, the federal government was paralyzed, workers went without pay, vital services were halted, and millions of Americans were left hanging in uncertainty. All for what? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. When the dust […] -

The Unequal Diffusion of Honesty and Dishonesty in Workplace Networks https://d.repec.org/n?u=RePEc:hal:journl:hal-05214954&r=&r=soc
"… dishonest behavior diffuses while honest behavior does not.
The diffusion of dishonest behavior is best explained by information transmission
… screening for #honesty can be effective in high-turnover environments with sparse networks. While high turnover has been shown to negatively affect firms, this finding contributes to a growing body of evidence suggesting that it may also have positive effects, preventing the #moralDecay that may occur with longer tenure."
