Truly deeply disappointed by this piece... the whole thing is a shit show... left and right! As Frank Zappa once said... "politics is the theatre division of the military industrial complex"... when both sides of the political spectrum have been captured, then it's time to jettison the whole fooking lot! But, whilst we live in a dualistic world, there has to be sides. I choose the side of TRUTH and I leave the lies to those who lack discernment. To want to cancel ANYONE is NUTS! Free speech means FREE SPEECH... we are not kids... we don't need anyone to declare their political persuasion, just as much as we don't need people to reveal their medical status... to suggest that privacy should be violated is not only infantile... it's dangerous... haven't we lost enough of our civil liberties and basic human rights in the last couple of years without you braying for the loss of more? Instead of asking everyone to co-opt into this gang or that gang, why don't you develop the level of discrimination needed to be able to discern what is based in truth and what debases the truth? To want to cancel anyone is not only madness, it means we can't see the fookers coming... Keep your cancel-culture, and shove it where the sun don't shine!

I am transleft. I was told I was right winger in highschool but I've always felt a leftist. I now identify as a neofascist billionaire and my pronouns are "give me your money now!" and "die already, you ignorant lumpenprole!".

Damn that Muddling Middle!! Spot on Jon. I've been accused of being a Trumper since I didn't vote for OBiden. I say nothing to the people who cannot think. Those that can, I explain that the parties are 2 sides of the same coin. But wait there's a 3rd side!! That's where my write-in candidate comes in. I vote ethically, with actual knowledge of whose name I write, and can sleep at night knowing I didn't kowtow to the illusion. And we all know just how much our votes count - and are not counted correctly. Sorry you missed the whole point of Jon's writing Rachel. Let go of your own agenda and reread it......
