Thanks for venting here so you can protect yourself there.

That's a really good way to put it, I appreciate that. I'm so grateful this place exists. Otherwise I would be absolutely convinced I'm going crazy.

They don't really bring it up, but given an excuse, they will do some signaling, and I take note every time.

I've noticed something similar with just a few people at my work. I am glad to see that when it happens. I wonder how extreme my workplace is compared to other places... when the topic comes up, people parrot TRA Twitter talking points, so I have to assume it's on the more extreme end. I'm glad you know of some other people IRL who are quietly dissenting, too!

It's quite the laborious task to censor reality to cope with the groupthink.

Yes. It really is. (And it annoys me that the indoctrinated people around me who are perpetuating the problem, don't even have to deal with this energy drain!)

Sending you fortitude.

Thanks. <3 You too.
