This is great advice. Unfortunately, with social media being what it is (and social media "influencers" being who they are), news (and politics in particular) is increasingly being shoved into our entertainment. Christ, just look at what's happened to this thread. This was supposed to be a game day thread ffs.
It's all by design, of course. The ignorant brainlets will try to shame those that don't want to engage or have differing views into conforming, just as their puppetmasters have intended, thus pushing them into extremism (or at least what the collectivists have conditioned the mainstream into viewing as "extremism"). That creates a more tangible enemy, which in turn galvanizes and radicalizes the opposition. Rinse and repeat until everyone has been radicalized into believing those with differing beliefs are monsters, at which point our "benevolent leaders" will step in, offering to "save us" from the people that used to be our friends and neighbors. Then the Overton Window, which at this point has shrunken to a sliver, becomes law. Our property is seized and divvied up in the name of "equity", and the populous has been conditioned into believing that it's all okay.
And here's the kicker. The current issue is never addressed properly. By virtue signalling about some generalized idea of racism, the nitty-gritty of the issue is lost. There are very clear, very defined reasons as to why the cops in the US are able to get away with what they do. There are very clearly defined reasons as to why the black population is overrepresented when it comes to police shootings/police brutality. There are answers to these issues within reach...policy changes that would lead to real change....but the people screaming the loudest don't want to push for these real, tangible changes because they've either been conditioned into believing that virtue signalling is somehow making a positive impact, or worse, they want this to continue. They have a vested interest in ensuring that the issues are never solved. They want more deaths. Blood is currency in the culture war, The more blood you have on your side, the richer you are.
