America is not perfect. Far from it. But there are ideals worth fighting for, values worth pursuing, even when we fall short. Donāt abandon it to the totalitarians.

Hey Ken, I know youāve given up on Mastodon, but I figured it doesnāt hurt to ask - any chance you could post this over there? Your account still has 100k+ followers, and this article is Just That Good, IMO
I did retweet(post, whatever) the one you posted last year, but itās a substack link. š¬
Iām sorry, I donāt mean to offend, but I really deeply dislike Mastodonās vibe.
Itās like being trapped at a party with two other people: one who demands you debate them on whether Dick York or Dick Sargent was the better Darrin, and one who becomes irate that you said the word āDick.ā
