Silent anyway

Our institutions often look like they're trying to cut a middle path through our darkening culture, trying to stay out of the way of the intimidating woke wave, afraid to take a moral stand against the blaming/shaming pressure.

But most of us don't share the woke values. For instance, when organizations like Target or Bud Light bow to the pressure, they start to discover that they don't have us following them. 

Two European soccer teams demonstrated that idea pretty well last week. Their association refused to observe a moment of silence to remember the lost of October 7. So when the whistle blew to start the game, both teams did . . nothing, observing that moment of silence for themselves.
