No because the only thing that’s important is putting people in a hierarchy and making them stay there. If these women aren’t “grateful” then what do they expect? To be treated like full humans?

“Retired general” surely knows, if not supports that one of the key elements of an authoritarian coup is to compromise the military. They aren’t insulting, they are warning

No, because we have told you people time and again that before authoritarians stage a successful coup, their “opposition” has already been compromised. You’re seeing it now. Please study how this is done elsewhere - this is not a US/Trump problem

Congratulations to the Yanks, who deserve a day of celebration. But the authoritarians are already analyzing and planning how to ensure they can control the vote better next time. These are not laurels you can afford to rest on. Unfortunately you have to go harder and faster than ever to stay ahead

There is no version of the global story where authoritarianism is a legitimate form of government or racists are heroes. Both need to be called out wherever and whenever they are found

Authoritarianism is stumbling upon ‘concentration camps as a service’ as a way to support new waves of disappeared, without those pesky laws

Beautiful piece of writing - just remember it applies to every authoritarian, in every country, in every time. Anyone who believes in democracy is automatically an enemy. Let it be you.

This is what American lives are worth to your administration-pawns to advance an agenda, loyalty to a despot & minions, and “can’t be bothered” as long as there are deaths to validate their so-called leadership. Intl disaster aid will be on the same terms

The reliance on the shadow docket is to prevent your democrats, should they return to power, from exercising the same power as your autocrats. It will always be “different” when democrats want to undo the autocratic state, BAMN than when autocrats attack democracy

So bending the knee is working out really well. INGO’s can kiss principled humanitarian aid goodbye. The US is testing its new model in Gaza already. It’s time to start defending our principles, clients and programs and opposing authoritarianism

Stop saying “this is what (he) wants.” The intention is to destroy democracy- full stop. With or without violence. Authoritarianism is always ready to use violence to achieve its ends. Yours are no different. Theirs is always a Hobson’s choice.

Don’t everybody state at the west coast. Now is the time for resistance in every state and every city. Demonstrations are nice but not necessary - flood government phone lines, send tens of thousands of emails, disrupt parking, spill things, drop things, slow things - flush every toilet at once.

Welcome to authoritarian “humanitarian aid” - a mockery of the term. We posted months ago any restoration of US assistance will only be based on loyalty oaths and support for authoritarian objectives . The INGO community needs to start fighting for our participants.

IR has to recognize that the US has not “stepped back” from Democracy, but has actively joined the opposition to it. From its full scale reliance on anti-democracy “thinkers”, to dismantling USAID its intentions are clear. That’s the real fight.
