It's not our job to toughen our children up to face a cruel and heartless world. It's our job to raise children who will make the world a little less cruel and heartless. ~L.R. Knost. (Two Thousand Kisses a Day: Gentle Parenting Through the Ages and Stages)

“What I want for you, is what you want for me” is only a controversial statement if you are determined to continue to consume the end products of my violent exploitation, abject suffering & impending brutal death. We are #OneBillionScreams We are @PolAnimalClass

The exclusion of us other animals from your moral consciousness, ethical consideration & from your political discourse just confirms the incompleteness of your so called humanity. Within it is the evisceration of basic decency. We are #OneBillionScreams We are @PolAnimalClass

Why did he show mercy for this child?

If you need to semantically bleach the meaning of your words to convince yourself that the violence you inflict upon us is justifiable, then your morality is a farce. Needless violence & cruelty is not, nor can ever be “humane”. We are #OneBillionScreams We are @PolAnimalClass

Use your desires & cowardly wish to fit in as your guiding principles & you become capable of excusing needless, cruel violence. Use compassion & integrity as your guiding principles & all cruelty & needless violence become abhorrent & indefensible. We are #OneBillionScreams

You consider yourself superior because you are not me, upon whom violence may be inflicted with impunity. Your sense of identity is built upon cruelty, upon violence, upon mercilessness, upon despotism. Your arrogance begets atrocities We are #OneBillionScreams @PolAnimalClass

To live is to suffer; to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering. ~Friedrich Nietzsche. #music #Psychology

“গল্পের শেষে সবাই একা।” শেষ পর্যন্ত মানুষ নিজের সঙ্গে একাই থেকে যায়। সম্পর্ক, বন্ধুত্ব, পরিবার – সবই গুরুত্বপূর্ণ, কিন্তু শেষ মুহূর্তে মানুষকে নিজের ভেতরের নিস্তব্ধতা, নিজের স্মৃতি আর নিজের সত্যের সঙ্গে মুখোমুখি হতে হয়। #একাকিত্বের

God is Immoral If God commands cruelty, do you call it holy or do you call it wrong?

We nonhuman animals have heard that you claim superiority & dominance because you have a highly developed capacity for critical thinking, empathy & moral reasoning. We’re just wondering when you might start using these faculties? We are #OneBillionScreams We are @PolAnimalClass
