24. No good deed goes unpunished
Wed May 15, 2024, 03:49 PM
May 2024

Now she is a considered a whistleblower by her former peers. She's against us now.

And all the animosity, hatred, anger and vileness they had pointing at the "bad guys"... Well, she is now the bad guy and all of it is pointing at her. Awful position to be in now that you know the truth.

The problem with the change of heart people is that when they have the change of heart, they are only one person against many. Then the former peers concentrate all that bad stuff on them.

I recommend coming out as an unnamed source as a whistle blower. It might be better. Maybe not.

Actually, I don't know of any good way of doing this. I think it's too easy to find out who the whistleblower is anymore.

Maybe staying silent, but still being a convert. Work with the democrats? Probably not.

Maybe a sudden "medical condition" which takes you out of the game.

Dunno.

I look forward to hearing any better way to do this - be a convert and stay alive.
