    That would be the profile of anybody who’s not directly employed by a NGO, but the sheer number of NGOs per capita in Georgia suggests that statistically a lot of the people protesting would be doing it because their own livelihoods would be affected.

      oh sure, i just meant that eg my mother was never employed by any NGO and she’s huffing this shit full force, so i think it’s a western-style lib thing.

          ehhh, some sure. but i think NGOs are the only thing keeping some parts of our crumbling social services “working” since orban decided to spend even less on them than the standard neoliberal governments before him…

          it’s a mixed bag.

            The NGOs serve exact same role as missionaries did, they do some positive work to ingratiate the population, but the ultimate goal is to colonize and to take away sovereignty.
