The poor have always given more to those in need, despite struggling themselves. That's been the case ever since money entered human society. It's even more so now, with wider social class divides. The poor may not have much in finances. The poor are far richer in humanity than those with heaps of finances & no compassion for others with much lesser than. There is no shame in being poor. Only a super sick society tries to shame poor folks without trying to help out. #StopWarsOnThePoor #ClassWar

Reminder for super religious that Jesus was a #Palestinian brown beggar. He was an OG antifascist/anticapitalist. #JesusWasPoor #SocialistJesus

@PhoenixSerenity I hate that phrase "net worth", as if the value of a person is to be assessed by the selling price of their assets minus debt. That some people are worthless or even worth less than nothing. Less than a grain of dirt .

@PhoenixSerenity I feel it's the very artificial nature of money, and its unnatural ability to enable the taking of more than one's fair share of limited natural resources, that needs spotlighting and dismantling. It's a grotesque instrument of ecocidal power.

@PhoenixSerenity facts. It’s ironic and beautiful that people in need behave with such philanthropy.

@PhoenixSerenity That's right . Some people are too poor that the only valuable thing they have is money. When someone offers help to someone else although he himself is struggling is what they call love . The world would be a better place if everyone extended his/her hands to support those in need. A candle always loses nothing when it lights another candle. What stops us from teaching that to our children?
