The uninterrupted victory of democracy, which to our revisionism as well as to bourgeois liberalism, appears as a great fundamental law of human history and, especially, modern history is shown upon closer examination to be a phantom. No absolute and general relation can be constructed between capitalist development and democracy. The political form of a given country is always the result of the composite of all the existing political factors, domestic as well as foreign. It admits within its limits all variations of the scale from absolute monarchy to the democratic republic.

It is contrary to history to represent work for reforms as a long-drawn out revolution and revolution as a condensed series of reforms. A social transformation and a legislative reform do not differ according to their duration but according to their content. The secret of historic change through the utilisation of political power resides precisely in the transformation of simple quantitative modification into a new quality, or to speak more concretely, in the passage of an historic period from one given form of society to another.

Live every day as if tomorrow will not come. If today were your birthday and you were to die in three days, what would you do with the time given to you? What would you accomplish? Would God be proud? If not, repent and align your life. It's not about the accomplishments; it's about eternity. Heaven or Hell—that's the genuine question.

I am an American. Secondly, I am a Christian. The reason why we fight is to draw attention to issues and to fix it. We are not anti-cop. We are anti-bad cop... We don't want hand-outs. We don't want anything that's yours. We want our God-given right to freedom, liberty and the pursuit of happiness... USA, USA, USA. Hawk Newsome, president and co-founder of Black Lives Matter of Greater New York, filmed addressing Trump supporters on stage at a Trump rally.

17 years old is just a number, but if only you knew what God did for me, you would understand that if not for Him alone, I wouldn't be where I am today. His grace, guidance, and unwavering love have shaped my journey and given purpose to this mere existence. With each step, I am reminded that behind every number, there's a story of divine intervention and blessings that transcend the limits of age. So, as I navigate this journey called life, I carry His grace in my heart, knowing that with God, every number is a testimony of His extraordinary faithfulness.

We seldom realize, for example, that our most private thoughts and emotions are not actually our own. For we think in terms of languages and images which we did not invent, but which were given to us by our society. We copy emotional reactions from our parents, learning from them that excrement is supposed to have a disgusting smell and that vomiting is supposed to be an unpleasant sensation. The dread of death is also learned from their anxieties about sickness and from their attitudes to funerals and corpses. Our social environment has this power just because we do not exist apart from a society. Society is our extended mind and body. Yet the very society from which the individual is inseparable is using its whole irresistible force to persuade the individual that he is indeed separate! Society as we now know it is therefore playing a game with self-contradictory rules.

Youth organizations are crying out for government support. There’s funding there that ca n’t be given out – because there’s no government – and these youth services are going to close.

I honestly ca n’t even begin to imagine the impact this will have on their lives, it feels like all these issues are more important than sectarian politics – but it feels like if we do n’t address sectarianism – then we ca n’t deal with these issues.
