Yip, and anyone who's worked in a big organisation knows how easy it is to get at least somewhat drawn into the culture - and how difficult it is to push against it. It's far, far more likely to be one case of many than it is to be an outlier

If it's any consolation, as a white-looking man (I don't make any presumptions on whether someone is actually white from a Bluesky pic!), if you do it'll all blow over in a few months and you'll probably still get a promotion in a year or so

The levels of copaganda in schools and for young people gives me the heebies when you look at reality. It would be lovely to trust the cops! There's just currently no world where we should, unfortunately, at least not as unquestioningly as we're all told to (ESPECIALLY women)

There's a theory about how several democracies are going through what Australia went through in the 2010s (Abbott and Morrison in particular - the right going well right, lying becoming normal, climate denial etc) and a lot of it tracks.

Like so many things, the harms are preventable, we just need to acknowledge them and make change
