the 4th point is one that jumped out at me, too!

I think the reason is that the other points seem much easier and more obvious and I would bet most of us are doing them already. Or at least attempting too.

But #4. So often we let the derps slide in order to avoid conflict or because they are idiots and not worth engaging. This is a technique that doesn’t let them get away with it, yet is much easier to do and still avoid an argument. And it doesn’t matter if it falls on deaf ears. It means that they didn’t get away with foisting their lies on us and anyone else who listens realizes that their lie is not accepted as a given.

“Silence against evil is consent.”

I did stop being politely silent long ago, but this technique is one that can always be used.

Silent no more.

At the very least we are definitely GMTA! LOL!

But I’m beginning to think we are getting to be in the Hive Mind!
