Sooo much wisdom (TRUTH) expressed in this post.

Playing "small" generally feels easier and safer... until the still small voice of integrity and conscience become LOUD and incessant. Is is then when we have a choice, and you listened and acted from your heart!

Well done, Adam -- for recognizing that you have an INCREDIBLY important voice, and where there is discomfort, let that disquiet be inflicted upon the "haters". Let THEM experience the threat we pose to "their endeavors for cultural and political change".

As a 12th-ish generation Quaker from Pennsylvania, I love and honour the state's Founder and one of his most recognized quotes: "Let us see what love can do."

The cancel mob’s primary goal is self censorship due to fear. Thank you for having the courage to overcome that fear. You created your own platform to speak your mind and we respect you for that.

Your courage is inspiring. It is because of strong and genuine leaders like you that people like me begin to feel safer expressing our thoughts and beliefs in respectful ways. Keep following your heart, it knows the way.

Of course you were embraced - once off the information plantation and into real life causes embrace.

I am a crappy philosopher, but I am very glad you made your story publicly. Same with others like the great Sasha Stone.
