put up your nukes

Don’t you know,
war isn’t a video game—
that you get to choose sides?

Don’t you know,
that when you strike a match,
something’s gonna burn?

Isn’t it better,
to strike up a conversation,
for someone’s mind to turn?

Don’t you know,
that if you live under the threat of war,
the rocket blasts will soon follow?

Don’t be a walking time bomb,
can’t you see,
you’re surrounded by land mines?

And don’t be imagining
your nukes are bigger than mine—
even if it’s true, what good will that do?

Commentary: If you let MAGA Republicans have the upper hand, we will all become bondmen, and democracy will fail. So we have no choice but to ensure that freedom prevails. Don’t believe Trump’s lies about having it both ways. You can’t support liberal democracy and sell your liberal capitalist soul to autocracy. It’s a trick to weaken your conviction, destabilize your firm foundation, and make you overconfident that you won’t be affected by the slippery slope leading to autocracy. Supporting autocracy undermines democracy—why is that so hard to understand?
Communists, socialists, fascists, and Marxists embrace each other because they don’t feel threatened by one another. They give each other space to maintain their deception of “honor among thieves”.
The only way to save humanity is for truth and democracy to triumph over deception and autocracy. “Injustice anywhere is an injustice everywhere,” and it’s coming to a theater near you. Just because I’m not opposed to the inevitable final confrontation between “good versus evil,” it doesn’t mean I won’t acknowledge that the world will burn if WW3 escalates into a nuclear showdown. But that’s the choice freemen must make, because that’s what we’ve enlisted for.

When he was vice president, Joe Biden declared, “If we want a world without nuclear weapons, the United States must take the initiative to lead us there.” And, he added, “as the only nation to have used nuclear weapons, we bear a great moral responsibility to lead the charge.” Excerpt from Opinion | A world without nuclear weapons

“No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment, You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, And their righteousness is from Me,” Says the LORD.” Bible, Isaiah 54:17
