Closed my account on another service.

Came here, and I’m almost in tears with the valiant and articulate pushback that I see on this service. For a long time, I participated in a place that manipulates people for the sole purpose of dividing, creating anger, and pretending there is no hope. Filled with racism, bigotry, and toxic masculinity.

Those who hate everything they don’t understand.

I’m grateful that I found this service, and thankful that Mark Carney is the leader of my country in these troubled, insane times.

I give a deep heartfelt gratitude to the many brilliant people who post here daily reminding all of us that the fight has just begun and show that deceny and honour will always triumph evil and gluttony.

I hope that I too may contribute something of value here as well.

Thank you substack and all of you who bring some light into a very dark world.
