For peace and disarmament campaigners, the message is clear: The world cannot confront climate chaos while expanding military systems, fossil fuel dependence, and nuclear arsenals that deepen insecurity.
Beyond Climate Chaos and Militarized Security at COP31
COP31 must be more than another conference of promises. It should mark a political turning point where climate action, peace building, and disarmament, including nuclear disarmament, are recognized as mutually reinforcing priorities.

I missed my chance to be a Godzilla fan when, as a kid, my first exposure to him outside the cartoon was the Matthew Broderick movie. I presume he’d vote for whoever favors nuclear disarmament #ngl

Trading 'Exterminate' for pizza cravings is honestly the most effective disarmament ever.

What will be remarkable if @samforstag.bsky.social wins is that his labor union is both the largest in the arms industry but also has a remarkable history with disarmament and economic conversion.

Its most celebrated leader, William Winpisinger, co-chaired the Cold War-era disarmament group SANE

They were effective enough in this role that Deng's China (also under threat of Soviet invasion in the 1980s) began a moonshot program to build them, and mobilized its propaganda apparatus in defense of the US and the "capitalist bomb" by pointing out Soviet hypocrisy in calling for disarmament.

Viewing the Pelota story as disqualifying isn't a consistent intellectual stand, it's unilateral disarmament.
The same unilateral disarmament the Media has demanded of the Democrats and Democrats alone for years now.

Rubio is pricing the war as a land dispute, when Moscow's terms are constitutional neutering, disarmament, and a country unable to defend itself. That amounts to regime replacement. Mislabel the demand and you negotiate the wrong war.

It’s about time. I think this, more than all the unilateral disarmament fair map commissions that happened in the last decade, will change the game.
