“We hear from time to time about horrible human rights atrocities happening around the globe. Our government claims that it stands in favor of human rights, and our leaders are in the news demanding consequences for other countries that are abusing their populations. But there is a huge denial about how widespread and common these kinds of atrocities are in the United States, and that we are not nearly as different from other countries as we would like to believe we are.” BelieveHumansKindChildrenDifferentCountryStatesGovernmentUnitedCommonLeaderUnited StatesRightsHugeNewsHappeningsConsequenceClaimsHuman RightsPopulationFavorsHorribleDenialOther CountriesGlobesAtrocities Author:Lundy Bancroft

“Governments don't want a population capable of critical thinking, they want obedient workers, people just smart enough to run the machines and just dumb enough to passively accept their situation.You have no choice. You have owners. They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own, and control the corporations. They've long since bought, and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the state houses, the city halls, they got the judges in their back pockets and they own all the big media companies, so they control just about all of the news and information you get to hear.” PeopleThinkingWantLongImportantStatesEnoughBigsGovernmentRunningChoicesHouseCitiesCompanySituationAcceptingLandMediaInformationJudgingNewsCapableSmartMachinesPaidWorkersCongressPopulationCriticalDumbCorporationsPocketsOwnersHallsSenateCritical ThinkingObedientCity Hall Author:George Carlin
“From May until October, the Ottoman Government pursued methodically a plan of extermination far more hellish than the worst possible massacre. Orders for deportation of the entire Armenian population to Mesopotamia were dispatched to every province of Asia Minor. These orders were explicit and detailed. No hamlet was too insignificant to be missed. The news was given by town criers that every Armenian was to be ready to leave at a certain hour for an unknown destination.” MayGovernmentCertainOrderGivenHoursPlansWorstReadyNewsTownsPopulationDestinationGenocideMinorsAsiaInsignificantPursuedOctoberProvincesExplicitMassacresExterminationArmeniansDeportationArmenian GenocideOttomansMesopotamiaReady To Leave Author:Herbert Adams Gibbons

“The good news about fresh water is that, even after accounting for the larger volume of water that is unavailable to people from the hydrologic cycle, there is enough on a global scale to support current and anticipated populations on a sustainable basis... Three essential goals are dependable and safe supplies for people, protection and management of the environmental systems through which water moves, and efficient water use. Meeting these goals will require that fresh water not continue to be treated as a free good or as the principal means for disposing of human and industrial wastes.” PeopleHumansMeanEnoughUseMovingThreeGoalWaterSupportSafeEssentialsWasteNewsBasesManagementMeetingsEnvironmentalPopulationCurrentsProtectionScalesTreatedCyclesEfficientPrincipalVolumeGood NewsSuppliesAccountingUsing MeDependableFresh Water Author:Gilbert F.

“In Obama's world, it's Fox News and me that are the reason the Republican base doesn't like him. It can't possibly be that those people actually pay attention, are actually intelligent, informed, and they actually disagree with what he's doing. It can't be that because you are not that smart and independently thinkable. You're like the Democrat base. You're bunch of idiots who only know and do and believe what you're told. There may be a degree of exaggeration in there, but that is exactly how the left looks at their voters, and that's how they look at the whole population.” PeopleKnowsWorldBelieveLooksMayReasonWholeLeftPayAttentionRepublicanDegreesNewsSmartIntelligentDemocratPopulationBunchPay AttentionIdiotVotersDisagreeFoxesExaggerationFox NewsThinkable Author:Rush Limbaugh
“We humans have existed in our present form for about a hundred thousand years. I believe that if during this time the human mind had been primarily controlled by anger and hatred, our overall population would have decreased. But today, despite all our wars, we find that the human population is greater than ever. This clearly indicates to me that love and compassion predominate in the world. And this is why unpleasant events are "news"; compassionate activities are so much a part of daily life that they are taken for granted and , therefore, largely ignored.” IfsWorldYearsMindBelieveHumansWarTodayFormI BelieveCompassionTakenGreaterEventsThousandActivityNewsHundredHatredPopulationDespiteBuddhistGrantedDaily LifeHuman MindControlledCompassionateThousand YearsIgnoredLove And CompassionTaken For GrantedHuman Population Author:Dalai Lama
