I like this. If I can make a suggestion that I hope will make this "TELL A FRIEND" movement more effective:

Spamming everyone with a single public post on social media or writing an open letter is easy, but that's a one-time deal, and will not be considered deeply or acted upon even if the individuals who see it might privately agree.

Instead, choose one friend each day and start a polite, private conversation. This means they will be forced to engage with you 1:1, person to person, and not be forced to act out some contrived public show of solidarity. These people will find your points reasonable, but it will take time for them to find each other and slowly realize that they are not alone. That feeling of not being alone, of not being the crazy one, is what's needed for everyone to find they do have their own voice and speak up.

Yes - my idea was to do a personal, one-on-one, message, not a social media post, although that could work very well too.

I was actually thinking of using the phone (GASP - I'm showing my age...) or talking as much in person as one can during COVID.

I don't think that politicians get as many calls as they used to, so calling politicians' offices could potentially be more effective than sending them an email or postcard.

I use J.K. Rowling as an in to the conversation. In fact, I spoke with a politician's office today and used J.K. Rowling, and the staffer had heard of the controversy and had been perplexed as to why what J.K. Rowling said was considered even remotely offensive.

As I keep saying, IMO 95% of the world doesn't actually believe in any of this gender bullshit. The ones who claim to are The Woke and they have been very cleverly interjected into politicians' offices, the media, academia, corporate HR, and women and gay rights organizations. Anyone who doesn't think this isn't very deliberate, very organized and very global isn't paying attention.

But we have the people on our side and our mission is to alert them to the dangers of gender ideology before it is cemented into law, as is happening around the world at lightening speed.

So please remember, to TELL A "FRIEND." (and by friend I mean anyone).
