Meet US govt-backed regime-change guru Gene Sharp, mastermind of soft coups

Max Blumenthal discusses US government-backed regime-change guru Gene Sharp with scholar Marcie Smith Parenti. They talk about Sharp’s NED-funded Albert Einstein Institution; his explicitly neoliberal, pro-corporate, and pro-imperialist politics; and the manuals Sharp wrote teaching people how to do so-called “color revolutions“ (ie, soft coups) against Washington’s targets, from Yugoslavia to Venezuela to Hong Kong.
