   They speak English in Bangladesh. I am not sure why that surprised me.

     well that probably doesn't inspire confidence in government.

     @picofarad arresting your opposition is big in russia and china for sure (and, soon, the USA apparently.)
     
     i think the other one is ballot stuffing these days. they were very resistant to attempts to force signature checks in the USA. they would get paid or told to check the signatures, and would just run the counts again instead. now there's been several judges since then rule that there probably actually was ballot stuffing happening :ablobcateyeroll:

     @icedquinn that was the first thing i said "that's the way to steal an election!"

     I'm watching this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdWBuzfcRs8 and it's got some AI weirdness but the videography is decent, showing the country. The subtitles are good so you can mute the video, they don't play any sounds from the original i think.

     It was filmed after Dec 2022, and released 3 months ago about Bangladesh.
