Main Findings
- Overall, 71% of all respondents, both globally and in the five countries, reported having experienced violence from the public, whether online, offline or both.
- Violence is heavily concentrated online, with between 65% and 77% of MPs in the five countries reporting online abuse.
- The most common forms of public intimidation overall reported by MPs are insults and degrading language, the spread of false or misleading information, and threats.
- Most respondents believe that the situation is deteriorating. In Argentina and the Netherlands, 8 out of 10 MPs reported an increase in violence over the past five years.
- Online violence is frequently triggered by elections, high-profile legislative debates or polarizing political or cultural issues.
- Women are more affected than men: 76% of women MPs across the case studies reported exposure to violence, compared to 68% of men.
- Women are disproportionately affected by gendered and sexualized forms of violence, especially online.
- MPs who belong to minority or disadvantaged groups – including racial minorities, people with disabilities and LGBTQIA+ communities – face even greater exposure to online violence.
When the public turns hostile: Political violence against parliamentarians
Which will “justify” martial-law, totalitarianism, & rampaging-exterminations, like what Iran’s currently-doing to the people it ought be serving,
like Netanyahu’s “Israel” is doing to Palestinians,
like Putin’s “Russia” is doing to Ukraina AND to Russian-people,
like what Tianamen Square was,
like Trump’s ICEing of Democrat states,
WHEN the tippingpoint is crossed, THEN civilrights will be ONLY charade, globally, & the right will … pretty-much OWN the world.
as predicted by Haich, actually…
( Elisabeth Haich stated in the mid-1900’s ( my phrasing, not hers ) that every Punctuation-time between Equilibrium-times,
aka every break between Earth’s-gyroscopic-axis precessing through an Age into another Age, as is happening now, from Pisces to Aquarius,
…there is a hard-right turn.
The later in a world’s cycle, the more-violent that Punctuation is.
This particular Punctuation’s the final survivable one, for our world, btw.
So, the hard-right-turn’s STRONG.
To me it’s looking like there are about 8:1…15:1 of people on the planet in the totalitarianism:civilrights ratio, when push comes to shove…
The ONLY hope the civilrights & LivingSpirit loyal people now have, given the geopolitical-actuality & eentrenched-corruption/oligarchy, is the Venn-diagram-intersection of:
( yeah, actual-Venn-diagrams only have 3 circles, so make this one hyperdimensional, then, & use 3D-spheres, instead.
