Buddhist Coalition For Democracy
@buddhistcoalition.bsky.social
We represent a broad coalition of Buddhists from multiple traditions and lineages and with differing political opinions, who share the common goal of ensuring democracy’s survival.

We continue to follow this case.

The Buddhist Coalition for Democracy expresses support for Mohsen Mahdawi and condemns his illegal detention and pending deportation under the Alien Enemies Act. He is Visionary Advisor to the Columbia University Buddhist Association.

@nytimes.com has an autocracy meter. 0 = healthy democracy, 10 = complete autocracy. The meter was at 0 when Trump was elected. It is now at 4.3. In one year the USA has moved 43% of the way towards the world's worst autocracies. How far will 3 more years take it?

All that “immigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit.
