What's the connection you see between this article and this question?
Leaving the UNHRC (not to be confused with the UNHCR as someone noted below, they're not a bad choice AFAIK if you are looking for a charitable organizations helping refugees to give to) doesn't seem to be a sign of the decline of western liberal democracy.
The council has issued more condemnations of Israel than it has issued condemnations of every other country in the world combined. Leaving is about rejecting that set of priorities. Not to say that those priorities are wrong, but obviously the US leadership does not agree that Israel should be the subject of so much of the councils time.
