I kind of relate, but in a way it made me very happy to see all the bs concentrated, because so many are now actively pretending they were never that intolerant, or never went along silently with such intolerance.

It hurts to swim against the current, rather than drift along... like a dead thing.
I hope I can swim against the current the next time, too.
Watching it also reminds me to be patient with those who conformed under the constant harassment. Spread out over 2020 and 2021, it was a steady drip, drip. Shout, shout. Mock, mock. Jingle, jingle?
