>Silence is complicity

I'd like to point out that the argument that you must choose a side or you're an enemy is a farce and bullying tactics (which is behind the spirit of this statement).

Both sides can say this. Meaning, of course, they are both wrong because I cannot be complicit in both sides of this at the same time.

Participation is optional. Non-participation implies silence. Silence is not complicity.

Excellent logic vsareto. It's hard to verbalize what you have done here so well...which is why they choose this weird phraseology to begin with. Netflix told me that I was complicit in this same way yesterday--so I canceled my subscription. Goodbye Netflix!
