This is really worrying to read

America, Israel, Afghanistan

Countries that are just going backwards so fast, religious craziness taking over and the silent majority are letting it happen.

Where are we going to be in another few decades? Bringing back slavery and the inquisition?

Time for the silent majority to get off it's ass, then.

I remember when “the silent majority” were the ultra conservative and religious nutjobs who helped bring Reagan to power.

I don’t know, but I don’t think they were the majority and they certainly weren’t being very quiet, let alone silent. Now, of course, we can hardly hear ourselves think for all the racket they make.

I'm just hoping that the actual majority is at least mildly progressive so we can keep things moving forward. And it is definitely time for that progressive majority, if it exists, to stop being silent. Part of having free speech is the burden of speaking up and flooding the public square with good and honorable speech.

Funny enough, it’s the Silent Majority that support it.

That's what worries me.
