character assassination is real.
if they know who you are, they won’t kill you.
they’ll just spread lies and twist half-truths, manipulate you and manufacture consent around a false image of you until your reputation and credibility are destroyed and no one wants to touch you with a 100ft pole.
they don’t have to kill you - they’ll make you want to kill yourself.
it takes an incredible amount of strength to keep standing after that.
that is why we are anonymous.
