Another Perspective on the #WalkAway Movement.

in #walkaway6 years ago (edited)

Brandon Straka is not telling people to become a Trump supporter. He is not telling you to join the GOP. He is not telling you who you should be. He is telling people to #WalkAway from the so-called left, the Democratic party, the "liberal" in name only, the network and seeds of hate, and instead become all the things those organizations claim to be.

Tolerant.

Can you imagine you decide not to be a Trump supporter, you decide not to join the GOP, but you decide to walk away from the message and behavior that is now self labeled the Left, The Democratic Party, the Liberals, and the Progressives though you may realize those labels in their original intent actually were good things, but they are not the values being expressed?

You walk away. You embrace being the only minority that matters...

The Individual

You don't swap one group think only to run to another.

One day you are walking around and you walk up to a Trump supporter and you haven't embraced Trump but you can still walk up with a smile and shake their hand, and they can shake yours and there can be mutual respect for individuality.

You wistfully think about the times in the past before you walked away and you recall the shouting of names, and hatred. You recall all the people talking about hate speech without seeming to realize the only people that seemed to have hate were those speaking.

You embrace love, civility, tolerance, and respect for the right of each individual to be themselves. You don't have to agree with them. Unless they are forcing you to act the way they want then you shouldn't care.

You can #WalkAway from this insanity and we will find peace.

This can and should be more than a United States movement. Where the intentional division and pushing of hate is coming from should be pretty apparent if you truly look. #WalkAway from the hate. In the United States that is being pushed by the Democrats, and the Left. In the U.S. that is who to walk away from. This is not telling you where you should walk, just telling you to walk away from the root of the current hate in the U.S.

If you are on the left and you think I am full of it. Next time you protest I recommend recording yourself on video and the people you are protesting. Compare your facial expressions, and the things you are saying to the facial expressions of those you are protesting and what they are saying. It should be quite revealing. Look for the hate. If you don't think #WalkAway is a good idea at that point then your protest must be unlike the vast majority of them we are seeing.

Stop supporting and spreading hate and intolerance.

Wow I really missed your work. Glad I popped back in to Steemit. Such an excellent point, it's not called #switchsides! Just a pleasant reminder that we all have responsibility and power in choices and the ability to look at things for what rings true to us as individuals. #WalkAway is about freedom. Simple. Love it!

Welcome back. I never stopped, but I have slowed down.

The worm, as they say, is turning.

This is the first that I have heard of this movement. I support any initiative that helps bring people with different opinions together. I’m glad that you mentioned that you don’t have to agree with everyone in order to have dignity and respect for others. Bravo

I covered it in some detail a few days ago in a Headlines post on my @newsagg account. In the top section there are some #WalkAway videos including the one that launched it all. That one is definitely worth watching.

I had a good look at that headlines post. So much interesting stuff to check out. The amount of underreported but important news is truly staggering.
