This >>> stop having an opinion on things. in many ways, this is the more potent solution. the great illusion of the modern age is that you must have a view on everything. you don’t. it’s totally fine to say “i have no idea whether to support or oppose this” and to do and say nothing. neutrality pending future information and assessment is a valid position <<<

is the best advice I have read in a long time.

And not talking to anyone outside your trusted circle, especially ANY government employee (all law enforcement) is critical.
