It just shows whatโ€™s possibleโ€ฆ

Meta and other platforms could do something like this too. They could weed out misinformation and disinformation, and they could turn down the temperature instead of promoting argument.

Why congress is choosing to make itself irrelevant is beyond me.

Republicans, do you think trump will one day turn around and say, โ€œthank you so much. In exchange for exercising 0 power all these years, I will now share power with you.โ€ That will never happen. The more you cede, the more he takes.

So, instead of learning, you regurgitate whatever propagandized nonsense you learned growing up from people who had their own agenda in spin in a narrative (you did not witness Gandhiโ€™s actions firsthand). And you remain overly confident, despite the fact that Gandhiโ€™s own words contradict you.

Gandhi's vision and technique of Conflict Resolution | Peace, Nonviolence & Conflict Resolution | Articles on and by Mahatma Gandhi This article is intended to explore Gandhi's technique of conflict resolution and his vision of an ideal society.

The crux of his approach was changing hearts, and itโ€™s the same approach that overthrew apartheid. MLK Jr modeled much of his transformative work after this approach as well.

There were some economic boycotts, but it was the concept of resisting without being violentโ€” never attacking, never being the aggressor, but also never complyingโ€” that was the foundation of their approach. Thatโ€™s also the strategy that was adopted successfully by others later on.

Brought down an empire and inspired almost every effective advocacy effort since, including MLK (and many others by extension) and Nelson Mandela.

Non-violent resistance is powerful.

Gandhiโ€˜s actions became The blueprint for advocacyโ€” for almost every effective empowerment movementโ€” to this day.

MLK, Mandela, and others looked to Gandhiโ€™s non-violent resistance to develop their own strategies.

It overthrew the mighty British Empire. Itโ€™s powerful.

Development of an ultrahigh affinity, trimeric ACE2 biologic as a universal SARS-CoV-2 antagonist - Communications Biology Structure-guided engineering of a trimeric ACE2 viral decoy reveals high affinity for spike protein, viral inhibition, and serum stability, offering a universal therapeutic strategy against SARS-CoV-2 variants and SARS-CoV-1 through symmetry-matched avidity.

Good news! Scientists created a super protein that blocks all #Covid variants tested โ€” even SARS-1.

It locks onto the virusโ€™s spike in 3 spots at once, jamming infection before it starts.

This is one of the more concerning pieces of info we learned this weekโ€” and this was a terrifying week for news in the U.S..

The fact that a POTUS is basing governing decisions on what he sees on TV is bad, but when his main sources of info are Fox and Truth Social, itโ€™s really a serious problem.

โ€œFrustrating.โ€ I think you mean frustrating.

If you are skilled enough that there is a difference between drawing badly and doing your very best, take a moment to enjoy that. Not everyone is so fortunate.

Good people or Portland, please stay away from the federal buildings. Donโ€™t take their bait. Donโ€™t give them any excuse.

As I type, I realize trump will probably just get right wingers in there to do some bad acts he can use to justify interveningโ€ฆ just like dictators have done throughout history.

A judge blocked Trump from sending Oregon's National Guard into Portland.

That same judge then blocked Trump from deploying California's National Guard to Portland instead.

This isn't a "left wing" judge โ€” Trump appointed her.

Says a lot about Trump's authoritarian power grab.

ICE zip-tying and detaining children isnโ€™t โ€œenforcement,โ€ itโ€™s *state cruelty.*

The 8th Amendment prohibits โ€œcruel and unusual punishment.โ€ That protection extends through the 5th & 14th to all human beings on U.S. soil.

This is unconstitutional, unlawful, and morally depraved.

FULL STOP.

Itโ€™s time for soft secession How blue states can use their economic clout to stand up to Trumpโ€™s agendaโ€”starting with California.

It's a really good read, and something that we need to prepare for. Soft secession may be necessary to remind some people that voters and their money matter.

On this day in 1987, #TheCure released "Just Like Heaven" as the third single from their seventh studio album, "Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me"

#RobertSmith said he considers "Just Like Heaven" to be one of the band's strongest works, and called it "the best pop song the Cure have ever done".
