#resource The Authoritarian Playbook, a report from Protect Democracy
"Authoritarian takeovers rarely happen overnight. Today’s #authoritarian#playbook is a process that happens piecemeal and is hard to distinguish from normal #political jockeying.
How to contextualize and cover authoritarian threats as distinct from #politics-as-usual
7 fundamental #tactics used by aspiring authoritarians, #framework to differentiate something more dangerous to #democracy.
Was Merz zu Migration und Schule sagt, ist an populistischer Plumpheit kaum zu überbieten! Um Bildungsmängel und den Fachkräftemangel zu bewältigen, brauchen wir keine plumpe Abwehr von Migration, sondern eine Entschlossenheit für ihr Gelingen und für die Potenziale derer, die schon hier sind.
Reading through IR playbooks that were made before I joined and they all reference setting up a ‘war room’ for incident management. I can’t help but think of this:
I gotta say, although this puts me at odds with most of the community, but from what I've read, I don't really see that much of a problem with the #SCOTUS decision about the marriage websites.
In the issue at question, the business owner was rejecting a message, not a class of people. If a #gay person wanted to buy a wedding website for their straight couple friend, it would have presumably been no problem.
That's a right that owners of expressive businesses should have, and it should apply equally to everyone.
For example, an #LGBTQ designer should be free to reject any clients who want them to build religion-aligned anti-gay websites.
So long as we can apply the jurisprudence equally (I know, I know), this seems like the right decision for everyone.
