Are We Clear?

…Yesterday some people did something. As a consequence of global warming we’ve been warning you about, some people’s bomb stopped Easter worshipping in places of worship. Some travelers and worshippers were hurt. We offer our thoughts.

We must stay united against some acts by some people. Worshippers of all faiths must be respected. Some people need extra protection now because acts of desperation like this exacerbate xenophobia and islamophobia everywhere. Racism cannot be tolerated.

Let’s never rush to judgment and be distracted by some people’s bombs; white supremacy is real and must be eradicated. Supremacists are amongst us, not just in Charlottesville. And like with KKK and Pittsburgh, not-my-President misogynist is dividing and inciting when he’s not colluding and obstructing.

On this sad day, let’s not forget the suffering of transgender people and mothers who can’t yet abort their 9th-gestation-month babies outside of New York. Climate change must be addressed; boycott Alberta oil and stop all pipelines. For Allah’s sake, social justice must be done: award reparations to the 8th generation descendants of black slaves in America. Putin is our greatest enemy.

White males are toxic; white privilege is real. Build bridges, not walls; children are caged at the border. Shakespeare and Columbus must be eliminated from school curriculums. Boston Marathon bomber should be allowed to vote from jail. The future is female. Israel is an apartheid state. William Barr and Robert Mueller are Russian agents. We only have 12 years left. Impeach!

….are we clear?

We thank BBC, CNN, The Guardian, MSNBC, New York Times, CBC, the Democratic Party, Jeremy Corbyn, all 1899 Democratic Presidential candidates, Hillary Clinton, Pope Francis, Karl Marx, Mayor of London Sadiq Khan, Barack Obama and all Muslims clerics for their contribution to this important clarification. And of course, Justin Trudeau and Michael Moore without whose daily wisdom our faculties would dull.
