Everybody sees the elephant.
They just love the comfort of pretending they don’t.
They whisper about it.
They joke about it.
They “stay neutral.”
They “don’t want drama.”
Meanwhile that elephant is out here doing squats on someone’s spine — because when you refuse to address the problem, you’re not being peaceful…
You’re being an accomplice with clean hands and a dirty conscience.
And here’s the punchline:
The elephant doesn’t get lighter because you ignore it.
It gets stronger.
It gets bolder.
It starts sitting on everybody.
So keep dodging the truth.
Keep tiptoeing around the obvious.
Keep protecting the comfortable.
Just don’t act shocked when the weight of what you tolerated finally picks you up like a chair and uses you as furniture.
