There’s a saying that “If you stand for nothing, you fall for anything.”
I think they have it backwards. I think we’re in a time where what is more true, is that “If you stand for everything, you stand for nothing.”
I don’t know when it started…but I’m tired of the bullshit.
I see all these people posting about ALL THE THINGS they support… how virtuous and “good” they are. How much they LOVE everyone, and love and light and blah blah blah. How they wear masks and get boosters and support war, are against war, and my body my choice, unless it’s an experimental gene therapy vaccine.
So many people pulling the threads of virtue, extracting social status, putting up a white flag that says, “don’t come after me! I support *the current thing*.”
Look, I’m all for fighting for causes. I’m all for people using their voice to stand for what is important to them.
But what I’ve seen, especially in the wake of cancel culture, is that a lot of people are in a *fawn* response.
