So to the delight of Putin and Xi, the liberal world order from my formable years is gone.
For a reason unknown to me, only the Nordic countries are dark blue on this map. In the rest of it not even Canada get that high democraty index.
And what can I do?
1. Comfort myself with a coffee cup, a book by Donna Tartt and a cigarette in one hand? That was actually one thing I did after 9/11. But now I am slighly older and should be viser.
2. That bring me to another suggestion. Just accept we live in a broken world.
3. Scream myself blue about it online.
4. Find a way to help defend democraty.
