So many who agree with you will stay silent.

They will stay silent, and express their opinion in the voting booth

Maybe the best response is not to stay silent, but rather to craft a non-opinion that looks like an opinion of agreement no matter who comes across it. But maybe not.

You have to walk a fine line and post some material, but not offensive. No response at all can be judged poorly. I’ve been in multiple situations where “silence = supporting the perp” so statements must be made.

If you’re completely off the grid it can be difficult to get jobs in tech.

You've mistaken that I assume you agree or disagree with my own position. You've haven't stated such.

The agreement I referred to was in that others are also scared of the consequences of sharing their opinion here.
