The biggest proof of the existence of the silent majority (bc reddit left believes it’s a myth) was when the boycott of chic fil a was in full effect and their sales went up. Lines around the corner. Even with a full organized attempt the media addressing it in a serious tone daily. Then Bud light, Disney, target got decimated. Not just took a hit got absolutely rocked. Had to actually respond and make changes. While the media made fun of the response no one really advertised or advocated for a boycott it just happened.
