Never Again!
That’s the rallying cry after something terrible happens. Never Again! we shout at the top of our lungs. Never Again! we demand. Never Again!
How about this instead — Let’s just not do the terrible thing in the first place! Doesn’t make for such a great rallying cry does it?
Instead of waiting for mass deaths or destruction, how about recognize at the start when something is going to go badly and then not do it.
Instead of doing things that harm the poor and dehumanize people, how about we just don’t.
