Is politics getting nastier... or just more honest?

This week on Politics Is Broken, Brittlestar and Lisa talk about the collapse of political decorum, the rise of insult politics, and whether it’s sometimes okay to meet bad-faith nonsense with a little verbal fire.

From Alberta separatism and anti-separation rallies to Pierre Poilievre’s media scrums, Mark Carney, Stephen Miller, Gavin Newsom’s online trolling, and the occasional political F-bomb, they ask whether political discourse can get messy without completely losing the plot.

A funny, sharp, very Canadian conversation about anger, authenticity, media, rallies, and how to keep one hand on decorum while the other one reaches for the emergency swear jar.
