Thank you so much for the kind words, Brian.

Yes, there's quite a bit of ideological orthodoxy on Medium at the moment, which is frustrating in many ways, but I also see it as fertile ground for writers who aren't afraid to take some risks and add some color to a drab online community. I've gotten quite a bit of pushback for my writing, but that comes with saying what needs to be said in an era when Truth is an endangered species.

Anyway, thanks for the follow, and I'll do my best to justify it.
