Faces change; faces come and go. But the consequences that we face do not really seem to change throughout the history of humanity.
Double-faced politicians, faceless bureaucrats, and their visionless supporters bluntly lie to our faces and expect us to trust them over and over again. And stupidly, we do.
We protest, the police bash our faces in. We voice our opinion, we get spat on our faces and called antisemitic. Facebook removes our posts and videos that support the victims.
Meanwhile, the fathers and mothers carry pieces of their children from the ground, looking at the faceless, decapitated bodies of their babies after they were bombed in their tents—the only place they had for shelter away from all the horrible attacks they've been going through. And they were hit yet again.
Let's face it: democracy is failing us, and we seem powerless to change anything that's happening before our very eyes. And the people who got elected by us to be the face of our valuable votes choose to turn their heads and do nothing.
Shame on the EU, USA, and all the other nations who call themselves "modern" and "democratic" yet support this genocide, actively, or by being passive against it.
