A Western president casually remarks that an entire civilization could die tonight. There are no mass protests. No diplomatic crisis. It is an item in the afternoon news, sandwiched between a sports score and a profit warning. The author reads the sentence on his phone, in a café in Munich - and scrolls on. That is the moment in which this book begins. Daniel Fürg - journalist, author, and entrepreneur - takes up the question we don't want to ask ourselves, because its answer concerns us: what has happened to us? Not to the populists, the extremists, the arsonists. To us - the bystanders, the scrollers, the shruggers. His thesis is so simple it sounds almost insulting: it isn't hatred that destroys democracy. Not propaganda. Comfort destroys it. The comfort of a society that treats democracy as a service and has forgotten that democracy is work. Every day. By each and every one of us. Fürg draws on conversations that changed him: with Auschwitz survivor Eva Umlauf, who recognizes the parallels. With the Turkish writer Ece Temelkuran, who lived the unraveling of a democracy in her own flesh. With Peer Steinbrück, Ricarda Lang, Philipp Ruch, Ilko-Sascha Kowalczuk, and others, who speak with a candor rarely found in public debate. The result is neither a work of scholarship nor a partisan tract. It is an appeal, written from the conviction that we find ourselves in an hour in which silence becomes complicity. Not in the legal sense. In the moral one.
