Overview
Step into the chilling unraveling of a society where unimpacted, ordinary people must decide whether to speak out or turn a blind eye to genocide.
We Agreed to Do This is a haunting work of speculative fiction about how societies collapse—not through sudden madness, but through the slow normalization of prejudice, fear, and silence.
In the experimental nation of Zaebresh, humans and the Folk—mythological beings once confined to legend—have spent decades trying to build a shared future. But coexistence begins to fracture after a comedian’s televised anti-Folk routine ignites a wave of public hostility. What starts as a comedy bit soon escalates into discrimination, propaganda, segregation, and state-sanctioned violence. Journalist Finley McKenna documents the unraveling in real time, refusing to soften the truth even as governments, media outlets, and ordinary citizens look away. Meanwhile, activist Tsvetanka Bakalowitz is drawn into a growing resistance movement fighting to save the Folk from eradication.
As the world debates semantics and politicians stall under the guise of caution, silence leads to genocide. And genocide becomes policy. Historian and author John LeStrange explores this silent agreement amongst millions through:
Firsthand account of a society unraveling under the weight of fear and misinformation.
Resistance centered on courage, sacrifice, and the fight to preserve humanity.
Thought-provoking examination of how ordinary people become participants in extraordinary evil.
And the haunting reminder that history's darkest chapters begin long before the violence starts.
Enter a gripping world that feels disturbingly close to our own.
We Agreed to Do This examines the terrifying banality of complicity and the fragile line between civilization and atrocity. Blending the moral urgency of The Handmaid's Tale with the political allegory of Animal Farm and the emotional intimacy of Parable of the Sower, this is a chilling reminder that history’s darkest moments are rarely created by monsters alone; they require ordinary people who convince themselves to stay quiet.
