Any countries out there NOT getting more paranoid/authoritarian? Any one trending in right direction?
@BakuninsSpectre No, Brazil is getting worse after having been trending better. Partly bc boom times slowed.

@emptywheel Okay. I must admit, I'm shamefully ignorant about South America.#theworldisjusthorrible -
@BakuninsSpectre A number of LA countries getting less stratified, but there's lot of well-funded opposition to that which leads to paranoia -
@emptywheel Let's hope the demonstrators can turn things around then, or is that a symptom? -
@BakuninsSpectre It may be one of the causes. Increased economic insecurity faced w/effort to use that to entrench oligarchs: face-off.
