The Cycle of Accountability and Deflection It's ironic, isn't it? Some individuals choose to commit acts that harm others, and when held accountable, they lash out at the very systems designed to ensure justice. Even more fascinating is how their circle of supporters, once applauding their every move, feel compelled to defend them—out of loyalty, fear, or guilt by association. But let’s ask ourselves: Should we stand by someone whose actions are blatantly wrong, just to protect our own reputation? Are we enabling a culture where wrongdoing is excused and justice is vilified? Accountability is not an attack; it's the foundation of a fair society. Blind support for someone’s mistakes doesn’t reflect loyalty—it reflects complicity. It’s time to rethink what we clap for. #AccountabilityMatters #Justice #ChooseIntegrity https://lnkd.in/gPFtpqCY
