remain silent, or stand against the tide and shout "NO!"?

Tim Pool and his buddy Adam Crigler both get the chance to rant in this episode of Timcast IRL. Tim's rant happens about 18:55 into the video; he excoriates the people, especially conservatives, who sit passively by, saying nothing and doing nothing ("Please, just leave me alone," as he bitterly puts it) while the left pulls down statues, destroys shops, burns cars, defaces property, assaults innocent citizens, takes over city centers and police stations, and runs roughshod over the entirety of American culture. Tim is genuinely angry during this rant, and he and Adam both give us viewers plenty of food for thought. Can people really afford to stay quiet and hunker down while their culture gets stripped away? It's an important question. I dealt with it briefly a few blog posts ago, but it's obvious where Tim Pool stands.

I haven't watched the video yet, but what does "speaking out" require? Countering the demonstrations? Having armed people from the right defend public property? Violence in the streets against the lawbreakers? I don't know, it seems right now only the left is being harmed by the unmasking of their true intentions. Maybe silence in these circumstances is golden.

Do watch the video if you have time. They're not advocating violence, but they are railing against a perceived passivity.
