 If you prevent the oxygen, the "haters" will suffocate in silence.
That sounds eloquent, right? I can't count how many times I've been told to ignore. To stick to the message. To stop giving "free air space." I understand the well-meaning intent behind the words and from those who say it. They say it because they want it to be true. They say it because they believe it's the right way to support me. The problem is, silence isn't working, hasn't been working (for anyone), and — and now I'm convinced — probably never was working, other than to enable the harassers and the abusers who continue along without the fear of being challenged on their behavior — all because we tell ourselves that ignoring this behavior demonstrates we're taking the high road. Some high road that is.  Cindy Goldberg
Candidate for CVUSD Board of Education Q&A date: Saturday, April 21 at 10 a.m. Anonymous Mommy Facebook Page Cindy is running for one of the three available seats on the Conejo Valley Unified School District (CVUSD) board. The elections take place on Tuesday, Nov. 6, 2018. Cindy has agreed to participate in my online CVUSD Candidate Q&A forum and below you will find her completed candidate questionnaire that all candidates were required to fill out. I encourage you to read about her views for the CVUSD prior to her online Q&A, in which she'll be available to answer any questions you may have for her. Each candidate put a tremendous amount of time into their answers and if you feel inclined, please support them by donating to their campaigns. It's been estimated that school board candidates will need to raise nearly $30,000 in order to run a successful campaign this year. They need your financial support if you want to have their presence on the board.  Thank you to everyone who participated in — and read along — CVUSD candidate Bill's online Q&A session this morning!

I will update this further as I have time, but this is a start.  My friend gave me inspiration for this blog, heck, she even got it started for me:
"In the early days of social media....we were all wide eyed innocents....how many of us shared ridiculous fear-mongering stories of drugs shaped like candy or that Newman from Seinfeld or Sylvester Stallone had died, only to find that it was indeed a hoax. But now it’s 2018....we’re smarter now, aren’t we?? I mean, we now know about bots, we know about coordinated government interference, we know about data mining and the psychological profiles that are used to market to us and to sway our ideas and emotions..... yet still, weekly, my feed is filled with friends sharing absurd stories designed to pray on our worst fears. The latest example is demanding we check our water bottles for pin prick holes because allegedly someone is injecting them with poison. It's so easy to verify this story on Snopes or Hoax Slayer or thatsnonsense.com in FIVE seconds....but still, there it is being shared by anxious suburban moms — coast to coast— igniting fear, spreading falsehoods, sharing completely made up shit. Why are so many of us eager to buy into these lies??" |
