Microfinance loan plans are so rigid that in certain contexts they assure failure.

I remember reading that the original microfinance loans were effective because they gave borrowers a way to get out of a specific kind of debt slavery. There is no reason they should be equally effective in places where the system that imposes poverty is similar.

The bully's punishment of all medical aid organizations if they do abortions stimulated a world-wide campaign for abortion rights and women's rights in general.

The bullshitter's sabotage is causing increasing harm, and is starting to drive hostile resistance since just working around him is not effective.

Facebook has many complicated rules for judging what to censor, and employs thousands of censors who are supposed to apply them. Sometimes they get confused — but the rules themselves are confusing.

Mary Robinson met with Sheikha Latifa, who was grabbed off a boat in which she was fleeing to India, and is now kept at home by her family. Latifa said that she regretted trying to escape. Robinson said she appears "vulnerable".

There are two possibilities. (1) She really does regret her attempt to escape, and is glad to be home. (2) She is a prisoner subject to brainwashing and/or intimidation.

Neither one is impossible, but the fact that her family isolates her and blocks her from communication except for a short time with one chosen visitor suggests they don't believe she is glad to be home. So I believe (2).
