In times when the zeitgeist pendulum is swinging the other way, and the Overton window has shifted so much (albeit imperceptibly, one outrageous behavior at a time) that we start to normalize behaviors from our leaders that were previously unthinkable, there is only one thing that matters.

And that is: stick to your principles, whatever they may be. Those principles haven’t changed because of whatever take is fashionable, whatever public tolerance exists for one extreme or the other. If some core principles were sacrosanct to you ten or fifteen years ago, odds are they are still non-negotiable to this day.

Don’t be swayed by whatever apologeticism is used to normalize the state of affairs, past, present, or future

Stay true to your values amid the chaos. Trends will come and go, but your principles are your constant. Don't let the shifting tides redefine your core beliefs.
