Dean Baker
That’s the question Republicans in Congress

انسان و انسانیت
زمانی که ما از انسانیت سخن میگوئیم، منظورمان
صرفا بشریت نیست، بلکه مروت و مهربانی و لطف، و هم و غم سایر انسانها را داشتن است.
از همه مهمتر دقت در این است که مراقب و مُحتاط باشیم که آنچه که انجام میدهیم و
یا در نظر داریم، خللی به آزادی و منافع دیگران وارد نمیآورد.ا

Sometime in the late 1980s, I was talking with a friend on my landline (the only kind of telephone we had then). We were discussing logistics for an upcoming demonstration against the Reagan administration’s support for the Contras fighting the elected government of Nicaragua. We agreed that, when our call was done, I’d call another friend, “Mary,” to update her on the plans. I hung up.
