Sohn der in Myanmar inhaftierten Suu Kyi fordert Freilassung
Seit einem Militärputsch 2021 sitzt Suu Kyi in Myanmar in Haft. Wo genau, das wisse niemand, sagt ihr Sohn Kim Aris. Er bangt um die Gesundheit der Friedensnobelpreisträgerin und fordert ihre Freilassung.

>> Once that 💩 is in place, only a concerted vote boycott with < 40% #Voting will [show] it's not legitimate
This whole #SuuKyi story, from #electionDenial, to #imprisonment of political opponents, to #electionBoycott, and further loss of power as a result of the boycott is about to play out in the #US, isn't it?
Parts of it have already happened with uncanny resemblance and impeccable timing -- nearly contemporaneously with #Jan6
⬆️ #Myanmar's ousted leader #SuuKyi is still imprisoned. A senior member of her party and a close colleague of hers, who was arrested along with her by the military junta, has now died in prison.
Zaw Myint #Maung was serving a prison sentence of 29 years on fabricated charges of corruption, sedition and election fraud — similar to those against Suu Kyi.
This is the fate that awaits US opposition parties if #Trump wins reelection
Zaw Myint Maung, a senior member of Myanmar’s former ruling party arrested during the 2021 military takeover, has died. He had been serving a prison sentence that was considered politically motivated. He was a close colleague of ousted leader Aung San Suu Kyi and spokesperson of her National League for Democracy party. He had been a second vice president and chief minister of the central Mandalay region before the army seized control of the government in 2021, arresting him, Suu Kyi and many top members of her NLD party and government. He died Monday. He was 72 and had leukemia.
⬆️ Just like the military junta has #SuuKyi in detention, #Trump would like to imprison his current political rival #KamalaHarris — just as he promised to do to #Biden and #HillaryClinton ➡️ https://masto.ai/@Nonilex/113228374372321924 [via @Nonilex ]
But, just like military rule is eroding in #Myanmar as pro-democracy women are claiming equality for themselves, Trump will not succeed as #Harris and pro-democracy women fight to win in the #US.

#Trump has long threatened #legal action against his rivals, including President Joe #Biden & his 2016 rival, #HillaryClinton. This month he vowed to jail those “involved in unscrupulous behavior” this election, including #election workers, #lawyers, political operatives, #donors, & #voters, yet again attempting to sow doubt about the integrity of the election. #FactCheck #TrumpLies #TrumpIsUnfit #AbuseOfPower #law #VoteBlue #HarrisWalz2024
>> this is the time to make it impossible to deny and ignore Black women anymore
Or just women!
So many countries in #Europe and #Asia have had successful female premiers (Prime Ministers and Presidents) belonging to different races.
#Thatcher, #Gandhi, #Bhutto, #SuuKyi, #Lyen, #Meloni, … immediately come to mind.
Why can’t America? What’s the problem?

Another #hitAndRun
>> #SuuKyi is the person that Western people want to see in charge, no matter what Burmese people think & no matter how she disappointed her people
If she “disappointed her people” she would not win 80% of votes consistently over 3 decades, no matter what Western people wanted
>> Your point of view does not intérests me, and I dont care how many posts contains your thread
My posts are not just my “point of view” & have links to copious news sources. Hers have zero.
⬆️ @Lo
>> She disappointed millions of people. If the junta had not taken power, She would have not been re-elected.
Stop gaslighting and start reading from top of this thread.
In 1990 #SuuKyi got 80% of votes.
Then she was put under house arrest.
Then they banned opposition political parties from election
#Obama called 2010 elections “stolen”
In 2015, Suu Kyi got 86%of votes..
In 2020 her party blew all previous records, and that’s when the #junta-led military coup stole power again
⬆️
This story barely makes the news even though #Myanmar is a nation of 56 million people.
Does it fail to make news because there are no religious or ethnic groups #worthTargeting in the story?
Where are the liberal #StudentProtestors demanding that military #junta return power to #SuuKyi?
