@karlauerbach@sfba.social @mattblaze@federate.social I've only testified once, and my mother got very upset when she heard I was going to—her model for people testifying before a Congressional committee was HUAC or McCarthy's committee, where people were compelled to testify and either abase themselves, incriminate themselves, or take the Fifth. I had to reassure her that this was not that sort of committee, and that testifying was an honor.
