People keep asking me how we win this. We don't win. LOL. We throw sand in the gears and wait for the thing to grind itself into its own destruction, hope we don't lose everything in the process, and start rebuilding after the catastrophe ends. Winning has left the building.
Tyranny is upon us. It may not last long, but it has already begun. The logic is inexorable and, for all intents and purposes now, unstoppable. The Bolshevik revolution was one thing, Hungarian another, Czech another. Those are the kinds of choices we have now.
The intended tyrannical regime is to be effectively global and the same everywhere at once. There is no *place* to run to. There is only how long it lasts, and none last forever. Maybe it's light and only a few months. Maybe it's heavy and a few centuries. Or otherwise.
Advice: Don't go along with the lie for your own part. Cancel anyone who would cancel you or who attempts to before they can achieve it. Empty your organization or institution of these revolutionaries and deal with their temper tantrums like a rock among the waves.
Expose what hypocrisy you can, not to them (for not only won't it affect them, they don't see it as hypocritical in their false morality) but to others so that they might be alerted to it. Help people laugh gently at how ridiculous it is and how silly it is to have fallen for it.
Complain as loudly and in as organized and informed a fashion as you can anywhere you can exert influence, which will mostly be locally. Pressure your state to protect you from the feds. Pressure your representatives to keep the country free. Probably leave Canada.
Do not only question their prescriptions but their assumptions. Example: you HAVE to do some kind of diversity training, even if just to check off the box. No you damn well don't. That's a lie. Don't go along with lies. Cultivate a good company/institutional culture instead.
I can't tell you not to be worried or scared. You absolutely should be, and this will take real courage. I will tell you this: it gets harder the longer you wait. It gets scarier and for more concrete reasons the longer you wait. As it has been forever, it's easier now.
