We have had too many popes issue hollow apologies, and people fall for their crocodile tears.

1) Demand that the #Pope ask #Catholics to resign from all military posts.

2) Demand that the #Vatican pay #reparations to all the people of the nations that the church looted, and which afforded it a pile of gold in a private city state in the middle of Rome.

3) Demand that the #Catholic #Church compensate all the children their priests abused.

4) Demand that the pope stop condemning #LGBTQ folks.

5) #FreeLuigi

The utter silence from the British Press about this, it was "Royal News" yesterday

Oh sure, there are the stories, but the algorithms were not showing this one if that cursed Windows News tab is anything to go by...

„Slavery is not just a thing of the past. Its effects continue to be felt in #systemicinequality and #racism. This was reiterated on Monday by the UN Committee against Racial Discrimination ( #CERD ) as the world marks the International Day of People of African Descent.“

“The actress and social media influencer Jameela Jamil recently aroused the wrath of British Empire nostalgists and apologists following her appearance on an alternative media podcast. Jameela riled the apologists for two reasons. Firstly, for claiming that Brexit ‘paved the way’ for President Donald Trump’s electoral successes and secondly for stating that ‘British people are truly the most evil people in history’”

Here's a gift link about the Harvard Reparations Project. Unsurprisingly commentors are against reparations and their arguments are weak. "Why should we be accountable for things done centuries ago?" But it's not centuries ago. Stop prejudice. Stop redlining. Stop lynching. Stop all the things you do to hold black and brown people down. https://www.bostonglobe.com/2026/08/25/metro/harvard-identifies-descendants-slavery-massachusetts/?s_campaign=8315:varf

Slavery reparations: Why Ghana is leading the demand for compensation
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cy0j2r15dr1o

"He also wants individual institutions that benefited from the slave trade to be held accountable and pay compensation. Among these is the Church of England.

In the 18th Century, the Church's missionary wing ran plantations and owned hundreds of slaves, which helped fund its work across the Americas and beyond."

Certainly, Imperial Japan committed many civilian atrocities, especially in Manchuria, Korea and China where the Rape of Nanking stands out as only one of the worst kind.

There is no denying that war, whether fought for justice and freedom or for the growth of an empire or out of fear will bring out the worst (and, ironically, the best) in humanity. The human condition is such, I regret to say, that war is a pestilence that will be visited on us as for as long as we survive as a specie. And if our planet has any say in it at all, we are not long from extinction.

So depressing…

Des #américains malmenés, basanés la plupart du temps, évidemment, bousculés, menotttés, humiliés, maltraités par délit de faciès? Et menacés en cas de résistance ?

Et les centaines de milliers de maltraitances aux #immigrés #latinos, dont certains ont immigré TOTALEMENT LÉGALEMENT aux #US ?

On en parle d'eux ?

From Genocide to Justice: Iraq’s Reparations for Yazidi Survivors

https://web.brid.gy/r/https://www.pressenza.com/2026/07/from-genocide-to-justice-iraqs-reparations-for-yazidi-survivors/

The #Takanawa #Catholic #Church just called the police on me. The police were very nice and understanding and let me go after a brief talk.

I have been seeking #Justice after being assaulted by the guards at Hope Services ( a catholic charity), in #Kona #Hawaii . Several other #homeless people had confided in me that they were being abused, but did not dare speak out, for fear of further violence. Also, they depend upon the charity for food.

I approached the catholic leaders politely in Kona, and they did not take responsibility. Then I moved to #Tokyo seeking political asylum.

I approached Mr. Takaii, a priest at the #Meguro Catholic Church, and asked for answers concerning the abuse. Mr. Takaii told me that he did not speak any English, though we had been talking in English for a few days, and he speaks English fluently.

After persistently and politely raising questions with the Takanawa church, I kept being stonewalled. I still have questions about why they cannot feed me 3 meals a day, turning me away hungry, though they just held a fundraiser for #hungry people in the Philippines. The priest, Mr. Noguchi harshly told me to go back to America.

Just now, I returned to Takanawa church from the police station, and Mr. Noguchi handed me a letter from Mr. Wataru Suematsu, the parish leader, banning me from church, and threatening police action.

I intend to get justice for me, and for other people the Catholic Church continues to abuse.

The Catholic Church is doing something shady with the money, as it is a lavishly constructed church, with a big attendance on weekends, and collects a lot of money.

The Catholic Church is an organization by and for, old white men. They will always elect an old white man as #pope ( now available in American flavor ). A 39 year old Japanese woman will never be pope.

The organization was funded by loot from #colonial #genocide, which it continues to hold on to, and continue as a big mind-manipulating business. Even as pope after pope apologizes for the atrocities of the church, the abuses continue.

Pope Leo has called for #peace though he has not yet asked his followers to resign from the #military which would be a real follow through.

People of the world, from countries that the church looted and impoverished, are rising up and demanding #reparations

There’s so much blood on the hands of the church, that the pope’s crocodile tears are not enough to wash them away. Empty words are not enough. People demand to be made whole.

Please boost this message, to hold the church accountable.

#Nantes #réparations #électroniques es-tu là ?
Salut Nantes ! J'ai un NAS en panne qui a des symptômes très documentés en ligne et qui doit être facilement réparable par un quelqu'un de compétent.
J'ai aussi une enceinte Sonos à diagnostiquer.
Je peine à trouver en ligne des adresses qui ressemble à quelque chose.
Si quelqu'un a un tuyau, je prends ! Merci par avance !

The next sign that the #empire is beginning to fall will be the rise of national #liberation movements, Kira Rudik, Ukrainian MP, writes.

"The first three republics to leave #russia get a discount on #reparations."

Barbados PM says country owed $4.9tn as she makes fresh call for reparations | #Slavery | The Guardian

"Since becoming prime minister in 2018, Mottley has become a powerful voice globally on the legacy of colonialism and has helped transform the call for reparations into a mainstream political issue."

@CharlieMcHenry #Generationalpoverty must be addressed, #reparations, #votingrestrictions. Florida is considered too hostile for blacks to travel to according to the #NAACP. I hope more of us are for #equality and will help us #rise as a nation.
