unfortunately slavery is commonly practiced especially in societies were labor was scarce; however western slavery is notable for its scale and the fact that descendants of enslaved Africans are still oppressed on basis of their race

Pope Leo: āTo welcome,ā means āmaking space for the other in oneās heart, in oneās life, offering time, listening, support, prayer. It is the attitude of looking into the eyes, of shaking hands, of stooping down, so dear to Pope Francis.ā www.vaticannews.va/en/pope/news...

the current consensus is that the Dark Ages was geographically limited, and was a briefer than imagined; by about 800 AD you already had the reemergence of urban culture and the Carolingian Renaissance; by 1000, Europe was richer, more educated, and more populous as it entered the High Middle Ages

Bluesky isn't going to like this take, but speaking in the vernacular of American Christianity is probably something more progressive Christian candidates should be doing, especially as MAGA becomes increasingly post-Christian.

There is not one marginalized, racialized, or oppressed group whose oppression or destruction is an acceptable cost for saving "democracy." Not one. If saving democracy requires leaving marginalized people behind, that's not a democracy worth saving. Either we all get saved or none of us do.

both are highly simplistic definitions; socialism is defined by social ownership, whether through public enterprises or worker cooperatives; communism is defined by communal ownership over means of production, similar to how the commons used to be
