Posted this on Twitter, less applicable here, but maybe useful as a way of finding common ground with people who for whatever reason are stuck in outmoded worldviews.
I suspect more people than we realize are silently going along to get along but are not remotely on board (or in denial) of what’s really going on. Anyway, this was the post:
*Imagine a lot of smart liberals are realizing it's time to fold a bad hand now.*
*You are not pro-war, pro-censorship, pro pharmaceutical conglomerates, jailing and assassinating political rivals, biological males destroying girls sports.*
*You were for the regular working person, skeptical of the corporate media, defenders of free speech.*
*This is not what you signed up for. This is not what you're about. I know a lot of you well, and this phony, dishonest cabal of oligarchs isn't aligned with your values at all.*
*You do not owe this metastasized version of your former party blind allegiance. They lied to your face about Biden's dementia, the lab leak, the safety and efficacy of the shot.*
*They are not looking out for you. The incentives you had to go along are insufficient. The lies are too big now, the absurdity too out in the open.*
*Opt out. Leave. Fold. Fight for your real values not these astroturfed perversions.*
