For anyone that can't view videos online here is the content of Naomi Wolf's interview.

Last autumn, there was a military coup in Thailand. The leaders of the coup took a number of steps, rather systematically, as if they had a shopping list. In a sense, they did. Within a matter of days, democracy had been closed down: the coup leaders declared martial law, sent armed soldiers into residential areas, took over radio and TV stations, issued restrictions on the press, tightened some limits on travel, and took certain activists into custody.

That blueprint has been used again and again in more and less bloody, more and less terrifying ways. But it is always effective.
