I think the point of it is more of a lament, the impossibility of direct action like there used to be, within the context of the liberal state. Direct Action, be it from the left or right, is largely a LARP fantasy, we can only really ride the tiger till society is transformed.

We can’t do
#directaction? I don’t believe that. We’re not willing to go to jail for a sit-in occupation, or for a#Luddite smashing.1 reply 1 retweet 3 likes -
Those children abandoned by their parents, though, the Church – that is, we ourselves – has the duty to baptize and bring up.

Ideally, those who sponsor these abandoned orphans as

These are things the Church did in old times even when a persecuted minority in the Roman empire. We should do at least that.

I agree with this. And I also take seriously
@GonzoMontreux's point that the "pro-life" movement essentially tells Americans that we can have a liberal society but without abortions, which isn't true.1 reply 2 retweets 2 likes -

In fact, I would go a step further. I would categorize the pro life movement as a liberal movement. Expanding civil rights to a marginalized sector is exact liberal framing. This approach and rhetoric is indicative of nothing other than planned impotence.

Only a radical transformation of society could bring about the end of the culture of death.
