"There’s definitely a movement that insists you are complicit if whatever you produce—and this especially goes to creatives, even so-called ones like me—does not explicitly condemn whatever it is that’s going on." YES!

I don't like writing about current news because there are better writers than me who already do. I don't want to contribute anything new to the topic, because anything I would say has already been said better and with more sources. Thank you for pointing this out and not giving in to the pressure.

I'm a little more cynical when it comes about it: what will my writing add? Sure, echoing what others are saying has value, but overdo it and it all becomes noise. There are better uses of my energy than performing for their moral affirmation.
