"There is a human crisis. Since putting a person to death can be regarded with something other than the horror and scandal it ought to provoke. Since human suffering is accepted as a somewhat boring obligation, on a par with getting supplies or having to stand in line for an ounce of butter".

Camus

Yes, there is a crisis—a quiet, anesthetized one. A crisis not of catastrophe, but of indifference. When death is procedural, when suffering is a footnote, when the weight of a life is measured in bureaucratic inertia rather than in horror or grief—then the crisis is not just in policy or politics, but in the human heart itself.

To kill, to condemn, to let rot—these acts, once the province of tyrants and executioners, now belong to clerks and algorithms, to systems that do not blink, to populations that barely notice. A person dies, and the world shrugs. A person suffers, and it is another line item, another inconvenience, another unavoidable cost of doing business.

The crisis is that it is not a crisis. That is the horror.
