Hate is no longer the majority opinion

Supporting racists and victimization by law enforcement is no longer the majority opinion.
I'm ashamed that I've worked at places that have, by turning a blind eye, supported this kind of behavior or outright endorsed it. I do not respect you. And i'm embarrassed by you.
Think on this, friends, people are being fired from their jobs for ignoring the truth and peddling false narratives (either in an attempt to kowtow to bigots in their audience/customer base, afraid or retribution or because they themselves hold these views.)
It's cowardice at best and endorsement at worst.
And let me add, if you're afraid of retribution... then perhaps the reason people are protesting is a just cause. And if you're afraid you'll lose the support of bigots, then what does that make you?
Think on it and search your heart.
They say the tide is turning, but I doubt it is. As soon as you return to your realm of comfort, things'll will go back to the status quo. But maybe, little by little, the erosion of outdated hateful views maybe expose the people for what they are. Scared.
