Today I took it upon myself to say what everyone is thinking, but they're too scared to say. I stressed the importance of saying what needs to be said regardless of the backlash that you might face. Do not allow your fear to be the root cause of censorship.I used a current example of a post from Jamie Foxx. After Jamie deleted his post he was forced to address the situation quickly with a public apology. I condemn public apologies in cases like these, and explain why in greater detail. I described the downside of the victim mentality and how it is contagious, which leads to the conversation about not following trends. Too many people suffer from the fear of missing out (FOMO). This concept becomes a slippery slope when your ideas and beliefs are swayed by how others are feeling.Lastly, I encourage everyone to research and be a free thinker. I hope this episode has some takeaways for you regarding discernment.
