The quote is a commentary on historical economic views, suggesting that Jesus' crucifixion was metaphorically related to his economic stance. It implies that because Jesus opposed the power of creditors and their influence over people with debts (as depicted by the phrase "Forgive them their Debts"), this opposition led to an adverse judgment against him in popular culture or history. The quote is attributed to Michael Hudson, a well-known economist known for his work on economic policy issues.

The African proverb presented is a metaphor often used to express the idea that until one has access to information, understanding, or abilities (symbolized by writing), they will be limited in their perspective and actions. In this case, it suggests that without knowledge or education ("the lion's ability"), individuals may perpetuate behaviors or narratives ("stories") that do not consider other viewpoints or alternatives ("glorify the hunter").

The quote is by Jordan Maxwell and discusses the concept that institutions traditionally thought to be guardians of individuals' rights, such as banks, governments, police departments, educational systems, and civil society organizations are actually part of a larger system designed not to protect but to control people. It suggests these entities work together to manipulate public opinion in ways beneficial to their own interests rather than genuinely serving the populace.

The quote attributed to Rosa Luxemburg, a prominent Marxist theorist and activist of the early 20th century, underscores her belief that vocal activism is crucial for effecting change. She emphasized the importance of openly communicating one’s observations about current events as a revolutionary act. This perspective aligns with historical movements where open discourse has been pivotal in challenging existing norms and advocating for social justice.

The image displays a close-up of text on what appears to be a stone or metal surface. The message conveyed through the poem is one of self-reflection and accountability, suggesting that failure to speak up against injustices occurred when they were directed at specific groups such as Communists, Jews, trade unionists, Catholics, Protestants, eventually leading to an "I" who was left unheard by no one else.

The text overlay on the photograph is a quote from Charles Bukowski. The quote describes observing men who appear to be detached and unengaged, walking through public spaces like subways with an aura of isolation or introspection. It contrasts these observations with his own experiences as someone who feels deeply connected to others despite being aware that many around him may not feel this connection.

The document appears to be a classified military report, likely from the early 1960s given its typewritten nature and style. It is marked "SECRET" at the top right corner with an additional classification code below it. The paper is titled as being related to Adolph Hitler's activities after World War II. The header indicates that this document was passed on by Acting Chief of Station, Caracas ("Bogotá"), from Buenos Aires and sent specifically for Gen. Hidler (possibly a misspelling or misidentification).

The poster conveys a message about the relationship between fear and power. It suggests that when people lose their fears, they also lose their authority or influence over others. The figures depicted are diverse in terms of gender and ethnicity, indicating inclusivity and highlighting how individuals across different backgrounds can be affected by this concept.

Not true, as long as you keep executing orders, fear or not, they have power. The moment we refuse to execute their orders, they lose power. When they get to the point they must use violence to make us obey, they lost ALL POWER.

Violence and its monopoly is the last resort of authority and power.
