Anybody who thought the idea of a Department of Peace was a wacky idea might want to rethink that.

US Department of Peace

Ending violence in the United States and the planet requires more than suppressing violence. Lasting peace requires active and systematized cultivation.

It’s beyond wacky. It’s ideas like this that make liberals look weak

What are diplomats within the State Department doing now?
Replying to @marwilliamson
We can fix our capitol building any time we want. Mitch&Nancy show us their books. All 535 of them, come out of our building with their books up. Who needs their right to remain silent, about our stuff in their bank accounts? #Fixed Mitch&Nancy Did It

In the end our biggest enemies were our own capitol building. We could fix this now, by fixing the capitol building. Mitch&Nancy are not individuals. Each of them represents groups, each is separate and apart from the other...

You mean like in Oceania?

They use the word defense for excuse to be aggressive, hence make weapons to “protect themselves.” They say: No, you can’t have department of peace because it sounds “weak” and “feminine” You have to be “nice” to your enemies. Keep doing the same expecting different results…

Funding a department of peace with resources taken at gunpoint from the citizenry, or stolen through currency debasement, is a crime & no part of the legitimate functions of government. Peace is what happens in the absence of coercion.

It is a bit wacky, honestly. Centralizing peace guarantees no peace.
Replying to @marwilliamson
So your Dept of Peace will interact with Putin, Jinping, Khamenei, Jong Un and Hamas? They’ll get a good laugh out of that one!
Replying to @marwilliamson
If the other departments were functioning well, a Department of Peace would be unnecessary. It's a wacky idea now and when Jill Stein or other Greens proposed it in 2012. With DOJ, Defense and State reform, peace would be possible. It's you who have failed to understand.
