Thank you Ben! It is nice to know I’m not alone, and actually I was very encouraged to see people coming forward and saying this has been their experience in the left as well. I have even had people privately contacting me to express how this resonated with them and yet they were too afraid to share it. That kind of fear speaks volumes about the self-censorship that is growing in the left these days. I think it’s important for lefties like us to try to find the truth in things, to separate what we believe from what we’ve been programmed to regurgitate, and to speak up where we can. The leftist authoritarians do not represent me, and I do not want to cede free speech entirely to the right.
