Key Takeaways
- Courage isn’t charisma; it’s saying yes first and acting, even when fear lingers.
- Woke culture’s reach isn’t uniform: it clumps into industries; tech media isn’t immune.
- Self-contradiction alert: prominent voices preach openness while policing who’s allowed to dissent.
- Media power asymmetry matters: editors shape narratives more than most readers realize.
- Counterpoint twist: outrage can fuel engagement, but sustained skepticism keeps movements honest.
