When state mandated masks , with an exception that I could argue using, I went everywhere maskless. I smiled at everyone, especially the employees stuck in masks. I only had trouble at one store. Others would see me maskless and wonder why. A few would take off their mask after seeing me maskless. Over time more and more people took off their masks until their was only a small percentage wearing masks. After the people had decided the masks were worthless, the governor finally removed the mandate. I like to think that my actions helped others to have the courage to stand up for the truth and against tyranny.

The truth is like that. So often the majority (or at least a large minority) don't believe the lie, but they doubt themselves or are afraid when they think everyone else believes it. All they need is a few courageous individuals, to speak out, before they also speak out.

Stand up vocally for the truth even when you think you are alone. You might be surprised how often you aren't alone. You are just surrounded by those who aren't courageous enough to speak up when they believe they are alone.
