The magical wonders of #liberaldemocracy!
The MAGA New Right blends ideology and populism into a serious challenge to liberal democracy. It disrupts old political divides and demands clear-eyed analysis to defend democratic institutions. #MAGANewRight #LiberalDemocracy
Fascist billionaires are now 'suggesting' it's best to jettison #liberaldemocracy. This may sound efficient to some, a radical departure being required in these emergency times. But we need thoughtful pushback on their neo fascist-authoritarian dreams. We need more democracy, not the jackboots.

Trump and #Putin are carrying out a pincer movement on #Europe ’s democracies. Suddenly it all feels a bit 1939
