I feel when Bucha happened in Ukraine still a lot of people were shocked and outraged. But somehow this extreame achievement of the human race to formulate human rights and at least try to defend them is withering away.

  • Genocide in Gaza, meh.
  • Genocide in Nagorno-Karabakh whatever.
  • Genocide in some African country again? They always have some genocide going on there
  • Genocide in Xinjang? Look they are dancing in the propaganda videos, how bad can it be?
  • UK sending refugies from all over the world to Rwanda? They categorized it as a save country so what’s the Problem?
  • Guantanamo is still open? We haven’t heard much about it for years, probably everything is ok there

I could go on and on. So is it just the times now that nobody wants WWIII so we are just looking the other way? Even worse, if you want to protest for human rights, you get into trouble, not just in dictatorship countries, but in Germany, US, etc.

    Homelessness is up in my country, region, city, and community.

    Full-time minimum wage can hardly cover a room, let alone a bachelor apartment where I live.

    Food banks are experiencing shortages all year-round.

    Unemployment is steady, but jobs are hard to come by for people new to the market. Students are having trouble finding seasonal jobs, too.

    There’s enough going on locally that I can’t be outraged about every terrible thing happening around the world.
