Stop!

 

"If we can learn anything from Bissonnette’s horrible crimes, it’s that we need to fight right-wing extremism, whether in fringe organizations or on mainstream media platforms, and not expect it to go away now that Donald Trump’s presidency is over." Nora Loretto, National Observer

Bissonnette - was the young man who went into a Mosque in Quebec and murdered six people sitting in prayer. 

He was wrong, he is a murderer, but worse than that are the systems which leave many people alienated. It's no accident. Power massages the vulnerable aspects of human nature by holding up the contemptuous results.

Stop treating the universe as though it's a game. Stop treating this planet and all the varied forms of life who depend on its survival, as though it is a toy. Stop pretending that humanity is in control, that we are the highest form of life and that everything is here to serve us. 

Stop glorifying the trinkets we have made as though it's proof of our supremacy, and worth more than all of nature born and created by the life that came before us. 

Stop speaking of this vast, complicated, creative network of vibration and light as though it was born from one anthropomorphized deity, who needs our prayers to survive. 

Stop organizing this mystery into a pecking order, self aggrandizing our place.

Just be grateful and humble and love the world as it unfolds each day.
