Orlando Buffalo Posted June 11, 2020 Posted June 11, 2020 I will take my part of the blame for not speaking up earlier. I have a good friend who got in trouble for retweeting a white supremacists. Now there was an investigation at the school and I allowed it to happen without mocking the entire process and said the process was fine since my friend had not known he was a white supremacists. The reason it was so absurd is my friend is black and the great grand child of slaves and grand child of sharecroppers. 1

This is probably how the Chinese felt at the dawn of the Cultural Revolution, and certainly how Russians felt at the beginning of the Stalinist purification. Don't ignore the powerful forces who are now the main outlets of "truth" GG's right. They're not cooling off, they're escalating. That's why it's important that everyone do what they can in their own sphere of influence to push back, because they won't stop until they hit resistance, and right now they're not getting any. They're trying to create the impression that their movement has overwhelming support for 2 reasons. 1. To make people afraid to challenge them, and 2. Bandwagon effect. It's shown that people are instinctively inclined to adopt the beliefs they perceive as being held by the majority. That's why they skew polls. It's to influence others. I'm not suggesting anyone should tank their career and go out in a blaze of glory, but we need to do what we can to let other people know they're not alone. Outside of California, we're the majority. Even rational Democrats (oxymoron, I know) think this is getting out of hand. But we're being bullied into silence and compliance, and the weaker among us are getting swept away in the tide. If we sit quietly and wait for things to go back to normal we're going to be waiting until the cows come home. And the cows just hopped on a one way train to the slaughterhouse. 4 3 4

I try not to post much on my FB page about politics because I don’t want to be “ that guy”. I have to try to be as non political as I can about this so what I’ve been doing is been posting some of the extreme absurdities of the woke mob. I can’t just do nothing about it. I have to try to shine a light on what’s happening. 2 3

I have to try to shine a light on what’s happening. I'm in a similar situation. I don't want to marginalize myself, and I have "friends" in my professional community and don't want to get blackballed, but I can't stay silent. I will post things that are not too controversial in the comments section or on my main profile, and I make a point to like the posts of those with the balls to speak up so as to show support, but I started a closed group for people I trust where I can be more direct. 4

They just know some other dip shitz said it was racist and that was enough for them. 1 hour ago, GG said: What's next? Jake from State Farm? Jake's already gone. They remade the commercial.
