The playbook for transforming a democracy into a soft autocracy was clear: Win power with a populist message against elites. Redraw parliamentary districts. Change voting laws. Harass civil society. Pack courts with judges willing to support power grabs. Enrich cronies through corruption. Buy up newspapers and television stations and turn them into right-wing propaganda. Use social media to energize supporters. Wrap it up in an Us versus Them message: Us, the “real” Russians or Hungarians or Americans, against a rotating cast of Them: the migrants, the Muslims, the liberals, the gays, George Soros and on and on..... we let revulsion at white Christian nationalism bait us into identity politics on their terms — whether it was debates about transgender athletes, the busing of migrants to cities, or shaming racist MAGA personalities who can’t be shamed. ... Many voters have come to associate democracy with globalization, corruption, financial capitalism, migration, forever wars and elites (like me) who talk about it as an end in itself rather than a means to redressing inequality, reining in capitalist systems that are rigged, responding to global conflict and fostering a sense of shared national identity.
... Instead of defending a system that has been rejected, we need to articulate an alternative vision for what kind of democracy comes next.

2. Promise Change: There wqs nothing new.
3.. MAGA.. Aache din, grand vision - not present
4. Strategist Suzie & Kris: use Podcasters , new media.
5. Fortify your defences on issues that will bing fear eg on Migration. (dont shy away.
6. Liberal Speech doesnt go well with cancel cultlure..:
