Disobedience for our selfish genes and why support freethinkers
As I am writing this article I am quite unsure whether it can have the opposite effect contrary to the desired one. But let’s try it – by supporting freethinkers by monetary means and disobeying our selfish genes. I was startled when learning nobody made donations for people who are at risk at Freethinkers International…

Global government with the super-rich groups if we cannot do it without them
You may wonder whether I have gone crazy. I cannot uttermost despise our beloved super-rich groups that completely destroy politics with their power-crazed feuds. But as they say, something is better than nothing. If we cannot (and obviously because of the feeble-minded citizens we really can’t) prevent the lobbyists, crooks, movers-and-shakers, secret services, lodges and…

When we kill millions. Our heroes: Fidel Castro, Obama, J. F. Kennedy, Che Guevara, Havel, Mandela
We all know them. They are known for good causes. But given the fact they are just animals, we should have or could expect animalistic behavior. So given the classical (common) morality, they all are failures because they sinned to a high degree. One highly prominent editor-in-chief of some unnamed magazine proclaimed: “So we have…

Snowden and Assange? There are tens of them dead or missing
I must reiterate my previous claims. The United States of America is ruled by a few super-rich groups who exert control over the politicians, judges, attorneys, secret services, media, etc. Thus, they make the establishment which is something evil. And then we have Edward Snowden and Julian Assange who go against it. But there can be ten times more of them. Only dead or…

Death penalty because you are gay. LGBTQ+ as one of the world’s most pressing issues
One would think that Hitler’s systemic incarceration, torture and eventual killings of LGBTQ+ people (which actually happened on an unimaginable scale) is a relic of the past and that things are over now when the majority of developed countries legalized sexual minorities or even provided lawful means of partnerships or marriages. No, especially in developing…

The Christian morals. Why do prisoners torture child abusers?
You can steal, rob, or murder an elderly person, but when you touch a child, it is a huge problem for prisoners in Christian cultures. One can object it may be natural as a huge percentage of prisoners were abused by someone at some point in their childhood (some estimates go from 30 to 70…

What is worse in absolute terms? Holocaust or meat industry?
As we have the financial industry, entertainment industry, technology industry, energy industry, music industry, and construction industry, we have the meat industry and mass genocide industry. Of course, the people who perished in the Holocaust were Jews, Romani people, or culturally Slavic people (and I am not trying to lessen their suffering). Yes, people. However,…

Halal, kosher. When animals feel unimaginable pain
I visited a Kebab Shop once. I politely asked what kind of meat it was, whether it was Halal or not. “We have beef, chicken and pork. All except pork is Halal.” I replied: “All right. I will have the pork then.” No problems so far. After eating, I found the vendor and said: “Well,…

Israel as the democracy in the Middle East? I don’t think so
Some people present the Israeli political system as a democracy. And the only one in the Middle East. Given the fact no other country in the world maintains the biggest open-air prison in the world (the Israeli-occupied territories) believing in Israel’s democratic principles suddenly disappears. Torture in Israeli prisons is systemic, there is limited freedom…

How Mao had screwed up and China could have been a modern country had the US invaded it back in the days
Every developing country has its own political turmoil (yes, the politicians and those behind are just animals) that doesn’t really brighten the country’s prospects. Just like Stalin had absolute power, Mao could have done the same with his power to build the country down from the Middle Ages into an industrial empire. But no, senseless…
