The Case Of Social Justice Enthusiasts Going Too Far

Let’s go back to June 2nd, 2020.

If you’re a social justice enthusiast, then you may be familiar with that date.

If not, it’s also known as Blackout Tuesday. A day to protest against racism and police brutality by posting a pitch black picture on social media.

But as you may already know, this whole protest lasted for more than just one day.

On that date, I even wrote an email about this. I’m not going to paste the entire email here, so I’ll sum it up as short as I can.

I used to post content on Instagram. Basically, I was deciding whether or not I should post my regular marketing content or not.

Thinking back, this shouldn’t have been a problem. But when I saw that literally every single person I followed posted a picture of a black square, the pressure felt real. I thought that if I posted anything else other than a black square, will I face backlash?

One of my friends shared a similar experience on that day too.

She told me that her friends messaged her saying things like,

“Are you going to post a black square?”

“Why aren’t you posting anything about Black Lives Matter?”

“If you don’t post anything, that means you don’t support the movement.”

I shook my head when I heard that. In my eyes, that behavior is just atrocious.

Another example,

I read an article that a celebrity faced a ton of unnecessary backlash because she posted the black square picture with a thin white border.

And what’s worse, she apologized for it.

That’s going a bit too far if you ask me.

It’s examples like these that makes me feel glad I don’t take part in any of these things. And if I really want to, I’ll show support through my own ways.

Similarly, I’m glad I don’t follow the norms of email marketing either.

Doing so has made email copywriting a lot more fun. It can be fun for you too, and profitable, especially if you implement what I teach in How to Become an Email Titan.
