A.R. Moxon
“Here’s a new idea: There are not two sides, but many. Here’s a new idea: We don’t need to listen to both sides, because we are the sides, multitudinous in number, and we are listening to each other already. Here’s a new idea: The people who refuse to repent of their blamelessness don’t get to be one whole side in a binary. They aren’t allowed to force us all into one side, and then wait for us to beg them for our permission to exist. Both sides? We are the sides. We are the sides. We are the sides.”
A.R. Moxon, Very Fine People

“Acts of terror by governments
are still terror all the same,
genocide wrapped in diplomacy
is just murder by another name.”
Abhijit Naskar, With Love From A Blue Rock

“Fascism, fundamentalism and nationalism, these are the ultimate mental illness.”
Abhijit Naskar, Neurosonnets: The Naskar Art of Neuroscience

A.R. Moxon
“Yes, and what do we mean when we say “we’ve rarely been so polarized,” anyway? What if instead we introduced new ideas? What if instead we said “It’s been a long time since awareness of the reality of injustice has been made so unavoidably present to otherwise comfortable people?” What if instead we said “It’s been a long time since so many people have become so violently resentful of the moral demands of justice?”
A.R. Moxon, Very Fine People

A.R. Moxon
“People who want to end polarization by listening to both sides say they are doing so because they recognize the debate is a complex one, but listening to only two sides is kids’ stuff. It’s a product of shallow understanding and an immature spirit. Truly open-minded people don’t have time for that. Open-minded people are listening to too many other sides, and aren’t interested in leaving any of those sides out. Open-minded people understand that learning to accommodate all the sides isn’t weak, but strong; not closed, but open. Which is why—if you want unity—you mustn’t treat everyone working together toward the goal of a just and equitable world as an equal “side” to the people who are being active intentional obstacles to that goal. This is what makes people who accept “both sides” framing in the name of “unity” so toxic.”
A.R. Moxon, Very Fine People
