No it's definitively people who accurately predicted where things are now that have been told to stop overreacting
Think about how the world was 10 years ago. If someone were to accurately predict how today would look, would they have been taken seriously?
Of course not. Just like people aren't being taken seriously today regarding climate change. Just as people aren't being taken seriously today when they say the US is following the path of nazi Germany. How concentration camps will (are) be built, how gas chambers might happen. How genocide against minorities is in progress.
I've been told I'm overreacting multiple times over the years. And you know what the worst thing is? It got worse, faster, than I thought it would. I underreacted.
Things are going to be bad
The point isn't that you're right or wrong its the medium you're using to convey that message. The right figured it out. The left are clueless and show no signs of figuring it out. There's no chance the left makes any kind of progress towards anything in the next decade.
But the right overreacts constantly. It's their whole strategy. From slippery slope arguments to saying how the left is going to destroy society
Who thinks that is true though? If I say "reeeeeee" what do you think of?
