The global 'religious-right''s threat to democracy and the rule of law - Divide & Conquer Inside Out: INTRO
The fundamental issue with any single group on the spectrum of the so-called religious right (i.e., those espousing extreme right-wing political views based on recourse to religious belief) is that they seek to prioritize their religious views over the rule of law by presenting their positions as based on a right to freedom of belief.
When you get that combines into a plurality of religious-right politicians gaining popular support through a populist appeal to their in-group religious beliefs to achieve a political majority, the people not affiliated with that group suffer systematic discrimination, and the semblance of the rule of law eventually collapses.
In a purportedly democratic country, political views that are derived from religious or other 'tribal' affiliation undermine the role that reason is supposed to play in the collective decision making process that a democracy is supposed to foster with respect to the big picture issues that society faces as a whole---such as Climate Change---whether those are recognized by a given minority viewpoint or not.
When the situation degenerates to the point it has in the USA at present, when you have a property development organized crime family in the White House that won't be impeached by the Senate despite a preponderance of evidence because of partisan differences, democracy is all but dead.
Well, first of all, ...
WIPO is fully corrupt including IAOC. Patrice Sam was incriminated in sexual harassment case as complicit. The perpetrator himself was incriminated in covering up Mr. Gurry's misconduct. They all cover up each other. its just an organized group of corrupt UN officials, which I believe in legal terms is qualified as an organized crime. Member States are problem as well. They are fully aware of situation at WIPO, but they benefit it, some getting jobs form themselves and family members, others having different sort of benefits. Swiss fully cover up Francis Gurry and WIPO, and were incriminated in DNA thief. WIPO will never change, because nobody is interested in changes but benefit corruption, including Member States.
