Right now, it is almost impossible to escape the news about the escalating conflict between the United States and Iran. The story is everywhereâtelevision, social media, newspapers, conversations with friends. War has a way of dominating the public imagination and pushing everything else aside.

Killing Ali Khamenei Was an Act of War â Now Itâs Out of Control

The Nobel Peace Prize Needs to Go the Way of the Dodo in 2026
In the year 2026, the Nobel Peace Prize, that once-esteemed symbol of humanityâs greatest efforts for peace and diplomacy, has been reduced to a farce. The award, meant to honor those who work tirelessly to further the cause of peace, is now hopelessly compromised by politics, imperialism, and contradictions. We are witnessing an absurd spectacleContinue reading “The Nobel Peace Prize Needs to Go the Way of the Dodo in 2026”
Trumpâs Dangerous Escalation with Venezuela: A Reckless Path Toward War
The recent comments made by former President Donald Trump regarding the potential for war with Venezuela are not only unsettling but dangerously irresponsible. On December 19, 2025, Trump casually acknowledged that he was “not ruling out” the possibility of war with the South American nation, further inflaming an already tense geopolitical situation. In his interviewContinue reading “Trumpâs Dangerous Escalation with Venezuela: A Reckless Path Toward War”
Radical Compassion in the Face of Hate: A Core of Anarcho-Compassionism
One of the biggest criticisms that anarcho-compassionism will inevitably faceâespecially from people on the leftâis the idea that extending compassion to fascists, Nazis, and the far right is naĂŻve, dangerous, or even suicidal. Theyâll say: âYour compassion for fascists will get you killed.â But I reject that. I believe the opposite: it is not ourContinue reading “Radical Compassion in the Face of Hate: A Core of Anarcho-Compassionism”
Why We Cannot Tolerate Gun Violence in Any Form
Gun violence has become such a normalized part of the American experience that people often react to new incidents with apathy, with resigned sighs, or, increasingly, with selective outrage. But the truth is this: if we truly want to end gun violenceâor at least reduce it significantlyâwe cannot tolerate it in any form, no matterContinue reading “Why We Cannot Tolerate Gun Violence in Any Form”

So now weâre moving nuclear submarines around because of a social media post? Thatâs what Donald Trump did this week.

Trump the War Dove Hawk: Schrödingerâs Nobel Peace Candidate
So, Trump is doing it again. The man who swore he’d keep us out of wars is not only staying in Ukraine, he’s doubling downâarming them through NATO and threatening Russia with tariffs like itâs 2018 all over again. This from the guy who practically campaigned in a tie-dye shirt singing âGive Peace a Chance.âContinue reading “Trump the War Dove Hawk: Schrödingerâs Nobel Peace Candidate”
Trumpâs Ukraine Deal: Another Broken Promise That Risks War
When Donald Trump campaigned for the presidency, one of his key promises was to end Americaâs endless foreign wars. Many of us, myself included, hoped that meant finally pulling back from the conflict in Ukraineâa war that I never believed the United States should have gotten involved in in the first place. The U.S. sendingContinue reading “Trumpâs Ukraine Deal: Another Broken Promise That Risks War”
