Dr. Susan Block’s essay on Aaron Bushnell and his grand sacrifice in opposition to Israel’s genocide is excellent.

This has been sorely lacking in the msm which actually avoids covering it.

You have filled a dreary void, clarifying an action of powerful, desperate symbolic value— which MSM and American society cannot dare confront.

You have done your duty. Now it’s up to the rest of us to get a grip on our tax funds and insure the purpose of this ultimate gesture of humanistic protest.

Bravo!!

I was very moved by David Buckel’s protest several years ago and began to compose in earnest a tribute to him

Thank you for your heartfelt article on Counterpunch,

Despite the sad and horrible subject matter of a decent human being leaving us in such a way you brought into sharp focus the ones responsible for most of the world’s misery. Warmongers and profiteers.

I enjoy your wicked sense of humor and your boiling down most of the subject matter into its essences.

What a wild and emotionally complicated topic this burning soldier is. Great talk about peace, love, freedom of speech, cuckolds and your upcoming State of the Sexual Union.
Love reading your reflections on the complexities of culture, class, color, geography, religion and sexuality as they pertain to living peacefully and well.

Angry men with arsenals in their asses shitting on people who have been there for the last 4,000+ years! Israel’s right-wing is showing us daily their complete lack of conscience. Have they no heart?

It seems that they’ve shut down a lot of sex-positive and political people, not only her. It’s great to see someone stand up to Zuck’s bots and call attention to a much larger free speech issue which is guaranteed through our Constitution and blatantly abused by META. Thanks for standing up and setting a precedent for all the others who have been taken down!

Thanks for putting the spotlight on these serious issues and keeping free speech alive while protecting us from the Mainstream Media spin doctors who get paid the big bucks to obfuscate the truth and force-feed us bullshit narratives.

Of course, you climbed the fiery Golden Gate Bridge in the pre-Burning Man Suicide Club, another great legacy.
Go Bonobos for the Promethean fire of FDR.

We need to ask ourselves at each decision we make, is it the right thing to do? And the right way to do it? Or is there another, better way? Will my decision result in positive or negative consequences?
