I kind of wish Christianity would have died in the States like it did in Europe, before half of it here morphed it a sloppy chimera of white supremacy, anti-intellectualism, and rabid entitlement.

If you don’t want all the votes legally counted, you don’t believe in democracy (ie. “Freedom”.) Period. If you support a candidate that doesn’t want all the legal votes counted, you don’t believe in democracy. Own your fascism and stop pretending it’s anything other than that.

Hey, evangelicals. Most of you blew it already electing a sexual predator to the Presidency. Let’s not do it again with Roy Moore. These abusers are far from Jesus, who cared for the poor and marginalized.

COVID is spread mostly through droplets from your mouth and nose. Masks decrease the spread of droplets, thereby reducing transmission of COVID. It’s that simple. Wear a mask indoors in public or in close proximity outdoors. It’s not hard. Please do it.

When I sing “In Exile” live, I am singing it as an anthem to never be satisfied with the status quo of the world around us. We don’t have to settle. We can build a shining city together. Don’t get complacent with thoughts of some future heaven. Bring heaven to earth today.

Hey everyone. Thrice/I will be playing a song called “The Weight of Glory” on the upcoming Vheissu tour, which was a b-side from that recording session. Since I wrote the song though, I’ve come to better understand some of the subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) ways…(1/5)

Christian friends, if you care more about “right doctrine” than you do about people (esp. outsiders,) you aren’t following Jesus’ example.

Here is the truth. You are fundamentally confused if you think that your view of a specific religion separates you from all of humanity. If God exists, and if God is love, then it follows that our conflicts and hatred grieve God’s heart. There is no them. There is only us.

Everything is connected. If you’re one of the people who have called Covid the “China-flu” then you are a part of the rise violence against our fellow Asian-Americans.

The word privilege seems to really bother some people. It doesn’t need to if you understand that it’s not a binary, but a spectrum. It doesn’t deny your hard work or excuse someone’s laziness. But to deny that there is a spectrum is to blind yourself to a lot of things.

Refusing to raise the minimum wage to a living wage is morally reprehensible. If an economy requires a minimum wage below a living wage, that economy needs to adjust.

If you think love of country means blind and total affirmation - that’s not love, it’s enablement. Lately this means enablement of bigotry, hatred, entitlement, etc. LOVE seeks the betterment of it’s object, calling forth the best from their beloved, not enabling their worst.

If you are afraid that new data or more knowledge could change your mind about a belief, it means you are stuck in an ideology. Take a breath. We should always be open to change our beliefs/orientation based on the data/experience. Reality is nothing to fear.

This isn’t a political statement. It’s just us communicating policies and politely requesting you wear a mask. There’s no perfect way to get back to live music, but we are trying our best to make it work while also taking reasonable precautions in the interests of public health.

You know what’s worse than “not letting people grieve” before talking about enacting reasonable gun laws? It’s using the grieving as shields to keep from ever having to talk about enacting reasonable gun laws (especially when the NRA is lining your pockets.)

Lifehack: We do “in bed” for our kids 30 minutes before “lights out.” They can read in their beds for those 30 minutes. This helps them wind down as well as making reading a treat that they look forward to, and so far seems to be instilling in them of love of reading in general.

Hey everyone thinking the digital version of the EP is wrong: no. You’ve been listening for two months to a youtube rip from someone who’s record player needs a tune up and is playing too fast. Had you not heard that over and over the digital version would sound normal. 👍🏼

Actual people and their actual experiences in the world should have more weight to us than our abstract beliefs about how the world is or should be. Check your certitude and well organized dogma at the door and go and actually listen to people in different circumstances than you.

This is a gang, not anyone protecting or serving. I’m ashamed of this. Vote out of office anyone who is not actively confronting police brutality. Also, if you have a problem with people protesting, you need to step outside your own experiences and imagine someone else’s.

@BernieSanders
for President. He has consistently worked for the good of the American people instead of for the good of giant corporations. He understands the way we are all connected, and that our connection can be our strength.

Hey evangelicals. I apologize if I seem to pick on you a lot. It’s not from lack of love, but because my roots are with you and I think it’s easier to hear critique from someone who knows you more personally. I’m gonna keep it coming probably, but know I love you. ❤️

This isn’t bad apples people. It’s a consistently militarized mentality that views the common people (esp people of color) as enemies to be suppressed. This isn’t “keeping the peace” or “protecting and serving.”
