Exactly. Politics in the US is no longer a debate about which policies to adopt within a liberal framework of accepted rules. It's now a blood sport and one side playing it like it's still cricket won't work
look, it is comforting to think that your political opponents are, at the end of the day, just people like you who really want us all to live together as Americans.
it's just very obviously not *true* in MAGA's case, as you can tell through, well, what they say and do.

There's a common thread running through new tech that gives early warning on crop disease - it involves listening directly to the plants. This includes a GM soy plant that glow when sick and a USB stick that reads spores to detect bad health.

Listening to Plants - Offrange
The newest methods of early disease detection for crops use the plants themselves to help recognize and diagnose problems — before it’s too late.

Also worth mentioning that it was the anti-genocide protesters peeling off from the Davis Cup (Tennis Canada) rally to run off the fascists from their perch at city hall.
The CBC article about the antisemitic vandalism in Halifax fails to mention the white supremacist gathering yesterday that was part of an attemped nation-wide event, and the recent anti-trans vandalism. We must make these connections to effectively combat hate & drive it from our communities.
