Something I struggle with almost daily is authenticity/integrity....
Does being authentic and committed to truth-telling mandate that I share my position on EVERY issue at EVERY opportunity? In my day to day life, I'm surrounded by left-leaning normies who couldn't be bothered to question any of the mainstream orthodoxy. It gets exhausting engaging these people. So I generally keep my mouth shut and my head down. This is taken as tacit agreement with their dogma. This feels cowardly.
Is there a proper balance between having the courage to speak my mind and just being combative/argumentative?
