“Define bravery if you will. It is not standing for rogue causes that are varnished thick with misused adjectives such as ‘progressive’ or ‘cutting edge’ or ‘woke.’ Bravery is not greed off-the-leash as some sort of pristine form of long-overdue liberation. It is not to rise in raucous defense of some supposedly cherished social movement from the safety of the rear echelon because we’ve embraced a movement that really hasn’t moved us to the front of anything. Bravery is not an act of abjectly denying fact and defying reality because our selfishness has become sufficiently audacious to render both as stifling and the stuff of visionless souls. None of these are bravery. Rather, bravery is marked by the stalwart and resolute determination to acknowledge the cowardice that drives illusions such as these so that we will forever be driven from them.”
