I'm Pleased to Announce:

@Counter_Weight_ is here!

Led by @hpluckrose, counterweight seeks to help those who may not have the platform, knowledge, or skill set to confidently oppose Critical Social Justice (wokeness) and assert their own values in opposing discrimination
2/
@Counter_Weight_ does this in three ways:

1. We focus on the individual with limited power.
2) We help people understand Critical Social Justice so they can resist effectively
3) We help people push back from within their organization in the way they want to.
3/
By helping people understand Critical Social Justice and how it operates, and providing insight about how to oppose CSJ, Counterweight empowers individuals with limited power to push back on an illiberal CSJ takeovers of their organization, institution, or workplace
4/
In addition Counterweight will also be providing original essay regarding various aspect of Critical Social Justice and the movement it created.

The first essay "10 ways woke ideas spread and stick" comes courtesy of @BlogUnwoke, it can be found here: https://twitter.com/BlogUnwoke/status/1353706127352061952?s=20
