Don't underestimate that shit. I've personally got death threats before. People are dumb as fuck. I've seen people actually follow through. Life is fucked up. Everyone's batshit these days.

I don't say that in Support of unity though.

Yeah, not only will people send death threats, but they'll send them to random people they see on LinkedIn who happen to have the company in their bio.

Instead of, like, to the CEO's house.

Because too many people are both angry reactionaries, and also cowards.
