"The line beyond what is morally right and what is not, is far from obvious early on, before the worst of the crimes are committed. It is easily overlooked when everybody else is making the same, wrong decision." Sound familiar?

As I understand it, from just glancing over the news, he quit to save UVA from Trump-inflicted damage. But you're the one who was actually a student of Jim Ryan. It would be so helpful if you wrote a thread and explained what really happened.

We have a madman in the White House who is actively trying to trigger total war. If Jeffries, Schumer, or any other Democratic leaders try to justify this, shrug indifferently, or write a strongly-worded letter and call it a day, they need to step down or be aggressively primaried.

Gene Roddenberry showed us a world without money/capitalism, nation-states and war (on Earth). It took place after WWIII nearly wiped us out. But I think we don't have to wait for a global calamity like that. We need to embrace the insanity of our status quo and the possibility of life in harmony.
