Notably: Note the United States’ ranking in violations of rights: systematic. No surprise. No wonder we need the Bhagavad Gita. From Statista: Last year, the Middle East and North Africa received the worst score of the regions on the Global Rights Index with an average of 4.53. Analysts write that while Qatar has seen progress, this low score is partly due to the ongoing use of the kafala system in the Gulf countries, which continues to leave migrant workers open to severe human rights abuses. The MENA region was followed by the Asia-Pacific with 4.18, Africa with 3.84, the Americas with 3.52 and Europe with 2.56. Trade unionists and workers were murdered in eight countries in 2023. These include Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, El Salvador, Eswatini, Guatemala, Peru and Sierra Leone. As this infographic shows, only a few select countries received the green mark of approval – all of which are in Europe. The rest of the world shows a less hopeful picture, with 87 percent of countries having violated their workers’ right to strike in 2023, up from 63 percent in 2014.”

When Bernie came on, the congregants voiced their euphoria. “Is this old opera house gonna stay standing after this event?” Sanders said. He was both in the moment—referencing the weekend’s whistle-stop tour of Merrimack, Concord, Dover, Keene, and beyond—and playing his greatest hits. “The corporate media and the establishment said, ‘Bernie is a nice guy, but his agenda is crazy,’ ” he said. He playfully cited his so-called “radical” ideas: equal pay for women, unions, free public higher education, Big Pharma being “not only greedy, they are bloody corrupt.” After an abbreviated stump speech, he concluded that his slogan, “Us, not me,” is also a “profound moral and political state.” “We are better human beings when we are compassionate—when my family cares about your family, when your family cares about my family,” he said. The crowd erupted; it felt good to hear a thousand people cheering for compassion. Sanders turned around, took a “group selfie” with the ecstatic crowd, and headed to a canvass launch in Concord. Everybody else filed out to a song by the Doobie Brothers, hopped up on political resolve and takin’ it to the streets. Sanders’s lead in the polls was climbing. That night, in Keene, he drew the biggest crowd of any candidate this year, accompanied by the bands Twiddle and Sunflower Bean.

–From “’Which Side Are You On?’: Bernie Sanders Storms Through New Hampshire,” by Sarah Larson, The New Yorker, Feb. 10, 2020.
