Let History judge us-

Let History judge us. We watch, literally, al Kashogi is dismembered in a Saudi embassy. We turn away as Putin annexes part of Ukraine and poisons opponents. We say next to nothing as Belarus is beaten into submission. The list is terrifying. There is no accountability. From Manila to Rio, dissident voices are silenced in the most brutal way imaginable.  We slide, bit by bit, into authoritarianism or worse, aghast yet passive. We are drifting into fascism once more, and still we do no more than lament.

Let History judge us.
