All the rivers have been engineered to flow in one direction. The people hanging on refusing to "go with the flow", are met with Extortion tactics, "So...You don't support Equity? Are you racist?". And, "You don't believe in covid restrictions? You want people to die".
I can only speak for myself, but I was raised to believe, everyone is entitled to their opinion, and the bigger person must keep composure and do everything to not stoop the the opposition's shallow level. Keep the argument grounded, and shrug off the more radical statements coming from the opposing side.
But in a world where ESG Scores and Emotional Feelings Reign Supreme, opposing viewpoints are met with HARSH CONCIQUENCES. This nonsense needs to stop before we all destroy eachother. This level of toxicity is reaching a boiling point to where it's irreversible.
Jon, thank you for bringing these issues to the forefront. This is extremely alarming. I saw first hand the same drama in our last school board election. Early on in the election, a rumor circulated that the leading candidate (that I supported), was at the DC capital on 1/6/21. We had his sign in our lawn, and we received several emails and letters telling us our position is WRONG from the community. He was adamant that the rumors were untrue, but I personally did not care either way. I liked his position on managing public schools, so he was my guy, but unfortunately he did not stand a chance.
If anyone responds to this negatively....I DON'T CARE!!!!!!
Great job being the first person to the paper and mansplaining it all. Leftist zealots? Not hardly! You can’t say it’s inclusive to drag in the person fighting the loudest against inclusivity. Gas lighting and twisting the message seems to be your craft. Authoritarianism would be Adcock fighting against inclusivity. You failed to share screenshots of the posts she’s made and the messages she has shared stating that she fights against inclusivity. I invite those wondering about this to do their own research and read the toxic messaging that Adcock is promoting Jon is a blow hard with a divisive agenda.

How in the world did we get here? It's difficult for me to process. And this is for library and art(?) boards? Wow. Civil discourse is no more.
I hadn't heard about this local (to me) situation though I don't live in that city, till now, so thank you Jon.
