It's insane to me that we now have reports of North Korea intervening in Russia's invasion of #Ukraine and the response is so timid.
That's now two — or three, if you count Iran — autocratic states engaged in military conquest to quell a burgeoning liberal-democracy, with the rest of the world too paralysed by fear to prevent it.
This is a glimpse of how future decades are going to look. It's the great moral and liberal issue of our time. We'll be judged harshly for our failures now.

mkoek@mastodon.nl@rhys seems autocracies sense opportunities now that democracies are no longer wanting to respond militarily to threats abroad; agreed, won’t end well
