Authoritarianism is a global project, coordinated, cross-border, and learning from itself in real time. The resistance has to be, too. In this episode, Scot talks with Pedro Telles, Director and founding board member of D-Hub, about what democratic defense looks like from a transnational vantage point. They cover how authoritarianism takes hold, what civil society can do to stop it, the role of narrative strategy in the fight, and what a new anti-authoritarian toolkit offers democracy defenders on the front lines.
