We've so normalized the militarization of American foreign policy that we reflexively look to the military before diplomacy to resolve international conflicts. We've sidelined true peacemakers for a reason: huge multi billion dollar corporate profits. SAY NO. #PeaceBeforeProfits

The same old mantra again ... "If we don't sell them weapons they'll buy them someplace else" ... I'm not so sure ... We make the best weapons in the world ... they don't want someone else's weapons!

Say it louder, Marianne! Biden can't hear you.

We've tried saying no, the media just lies about how many of us said it, the police infiltrate and oppress protests, and criticism of the military gets lumped in with criticisms of the Troops themselves, which is something that gets overwhelming opprobrium for some reason
