toxic pacifism

Toxic pacifism refers to the excessive or misguided promotion of peace and non-confrontation in ways that ultimately enable harm, injustice, or abuse. It involves avoiding conflict or discomfort at all costs—even when confrontation is necessary to address wrongdoing, protect the vulnerable, or seek justice. Toxic pacifism often masks itself as virtue but can result in the silencing of victims, the protection of oppressors, or the perpetuation of harmful systems by prioritizing harmony over accountability.
I can't come up with an example of toxic pacifism :(

Pacific Overtures

The best musical set in Japan that also happens to be written by Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine, two white guys. Telling the story of Commodore Matthew Calrage Perrys 1853 expedition to un-Tokugawa Japan, the show is told from the perspective of Japan with the original production (and many others) taking direct inspiration from the Japanese art of Kabuki theatre. According to Sondheim, his favorite piece written by him is "Someone In A Tree" from Pacific Overtures. A true masterpiece of music.
Pacific Overtures Fan: Hey, are you familiar with Pacific Overtures?
Theatre Person: No, I hate that show.
Pacific Overtures Fan: Okay, I want to scream at you right now and kill you with the tree from Someone In A Tree but I won't because I know that I am the singular fan of Pacific Overtures, have a good day.

5am Pacific Time

The emptiness and lull in activity experienced by extreme internet-junkies and gamers during the early morning hours after everyone else has either gone to bed or is getting up to go to work, so named because this is when servers typically shut down for scheduled maintenance. This term transcends the local lull in activity experienced by people who stay up all night partying, having the distinction that no matter where you are in the world or what schedule you keep, and no matter how many different time zones the people you interact with are in, if you are on an English-speaking website you're probably going to experience a noticeable drop in activity around those hours.
Oh man, where'd everybody go? Just a moment ago I was having amazing conversations in like 15 different browser tabs and now nobody is saying anything! Must be 5am Pacific Time.
