The Illusion of Progress
We live in an era of curated shock, where the public is directed to recoil at the depravity of high-profile predators, yet remains blind to the industrial-scale brutality operating in plain sight.
The reality is far more chilling: we haven't ended the era of blood sacrifice; we have simply sterilized and sold it to the masses. What was once tribal ritual has been rebranded as "routine medical care" and "social policy."
The Statistics of Indifference
Medicalized Mutilation: A four-millennium legacy of genital trauma is now marketed as a standard health procedure, stripped of its ritual mask but retaining its physical and psychological toll.
The 2-per-Second Reality: While the world fixates on the latest scandal, statistics from sources like Worldometers suggest a staggering rate of nearly two unborn lives terminated every second worldwide.
We are a society that condemns the monster in the headlines while subsidizing the machinery of systemic violence. If we are appalled by the crimes of an individual but indifferent to the globalized slaughter of the most vulnerable,
our moral compass isn't just broken—it’s being used against us.
