This is true…
I’m left-leaning, and I must say I’m terribly sorry this happened to you—shouldn’t to anyone no matter where on the spectrum.
I’m glad you came back and spoke your truth; you did so elegantly.
And you’re right—we need civility—badly.
Wishing you a more peaceful kinder journey here in Medium—I hope you’re stronger and will keep writing your heart out.
Good riddance to those who unfollowed you!!
