This is what it is like to live under Fascism. It’s been like this the whole time, but for the first time in history the victims of genocide are able to broadcast their lived reality directly to the Western populace, largely via TikTok, and that makes maintaining the facade that the ‘Liberal, Rules-Based World Order’ is anything other than the continuation of violent imperialism much harder.
