    I’m AwakeSoulist/Buddhist.

    There are 2 sides to this that seem pertinent:

    As a means of protest it is valid to do-so.

    As a means of manipulating others into obeying one’s social-pressure … it absolutely is not.

    I’m an independent “charnel-ground dweller” style buddhist, though, so no tradition holds that I’m valid, in any way, whatsoever.

    You consider it, & you make up your own mind.
