It's a huge workforce and I am always working with different co-workers, but in person all the co-workers I meet seem like Leftists. They preach the climate change, wear the masks, and seem brainwashed. However, we have a secret forum for the workers and it is just Q central and tons of memes dishing on the Left and the resident-in-chief. Some of their memes are the best I've ever seen. I know several are reading here. I am shocked when I recognize who they are in the secret forum. I completely thought they were brainwashed Leftists. They hide it so well. A couple were surprised I knew about Q. They thought I was a brainwashed Leftists. We all know how to hide it so well. I guess the Obama years just taught everyone to mask their opinions and we're so good we can't even recognize each other in real life. We can mimic the sheep to a T.
Even more telling is how not a single actual Leftists ever pipes up or says a thing on the actual forum. Everyone in the office knows about the forum and loves to read there, but that means they're reading Q stuff. It's hard to reconcile by how they act in the office compared to what they post there. I wonder if another reason the Left is so convinced it's a majority is so many Awakened are very good at blending in.
The Left used to be good at it, but these days when Antifa larp as Q followers it's just so easy to spot them. I mean, Qanon? C'mon man.
Actually Q posted to encourage people to get around the censorship by infiltration. Giving yourself away just makes you an easy target for the enemy. Everyone masks to some degree. We never reveal all our cards anywhere. If you're at a family reunion you may not tell your aunt that her casserole sucked and she is fat as a whale. Just because you don't always reveal yourself and your real opinions in places does not mean your sheep.
Unlike the Sheep we know what the truth is, but many prefer not to make themselves easy targets. Leftists love it when we make ourselves easy to identify. They hate it when we imbed among them and spread red pills from within.
Living by just saying the first thing that comes to mind is not courage. It's just being impulsive. Logic and strategic thinking doesn't mean oversharing your feelings in an attempt to prove you're not scare. I've seen people put on that show all the time. They're so scared of looking weak they act rashly.
Restraint and knowing when and where to show your Trump card are the mark of the disciplined.
What you're suggesting is like when a kid is scared, but their friends say "Are you too chicken to do it?" and they immediately go, "I'm not scared! I'll show you! I'll do it!"
That's just being impulsive.
No one walks around sharing their truth self with strangers. We always have a hidden self that we hold back and share with someone we truly trust. Impulsive and insecure people hate this form of discipline. They mistake masking certain opinions and feelings as "not being accepted for their real selves."
I see many women on the Left always saying, "If you can't handle me at my worst then you don't deserve me best". Basically, they end up revealing every detail and dark secret about themselves. Then they're shocked when the people around turn cold.
Masking at work does not mean people are "afraid of Leftists". I've seen what happens when people share too much. It doesn't end well. Frankly, there are things about my coworkers that I'd rather they not share. No, I don't want to hear about their sexual orientation or their political opinions or how all men are evil because Chad dumped them last night. If I want to know I'll ask.
I think most conservatives just have a better understanding of this. If asked, they will share their opinions. They just don't mouth off about it at a meeting like Leftists do. They have sense (something the Left lacks).
If I want their opinion on the climate or gender I'll ask. I'm sick of Leftist spouting their dumb opinions when no one asked. That's my honest opinion.
"I’m just saying, if I’m having a conversation with someone and they mention supporting something I oppose, I ask WHY they hold that opinion."
A one on one conversation in private with a co-worker is not the same as blasting your real political opinions in public in the office. Of course, I've shared privately with co-workers and they've shared privately with others. However, in a public setting we all put on a face.
Accusing them of "cowardice" for that is foolish to me. It's not cowardice. It's what is natural. We don't reveal our true selves in public because we don't know where everyone stands.
You're determined to brand others a coward because they don't run around with emotions and opinions stamped on their forehead in public. I 100% disagree. No, being reserved and holding back until you have assessed the situation is neither cowardice nor letting it "fester inside". It's being smart and figuring out the situation.
There is some truth to being afraid to speak up when someone needs to stand for truth. That's a different matter than just normal masking at work and the office.
I don't regard masking the same as staying silent if you see bullying or harassment. I think you're conflating the two ideas as one and the same. They're not. Masking is sensible.
But if someone is being a rude ass at a meeting then yes, someone needs to tell them what everyone is feeling in that moment and say, "No one cares". And my co-workers and I have never been afraid to do that.
You say that now...but are failing to see the long game........Jan. 6 is being used to view "Patriots" "Anons" "Q people" fuck probs even anyone who votes red at this point a terrorist. Or atleast a threat....and thusly black listed, or worse..Like banks severing ties with you because of your politics. No one is saying to be a bitch either. Best way to learn the enemy is to be friendly with them. And that is done by being a chameleon
