Well one certainly couldn't accuse you, Valdny, of 'rants' of any kind, for so far you've contributed nothing to this platform.

I wasn't aware that my own writing could be classified, legitimately, as "woke rants" but given that such labels have little legitimacy anyway and are usually just used as terms of abuse, then perhaps I should have expected it, sooner or later.

Given your terse, unexplained, (save by a dubious abusive term), comment and a failure to articulate any view of your own, I think that I have little to lose by your not following me.

You ought also to know that, although I really appreciate positive feedback and the positive support of those who do choose to follow me, particularely when they are writers whose work I respect, I write neither for praise or money.

I write as honestly and openly as I can to state my feelings regarding issues of injustice, inequity, division, lack of compassion and perfidy in our world.

I do so, with a little hope that what I have to say may have some small influence in change for the better and/or attract others to share their views with me, even if different, for that increases my own understanding and opportunity to learn.

So, Valdny, no loss and no hard feelings on my side. With good fortune you may find someone who writes exactly what you want to hear and so have your own ego massaged and become further entrenched in the belief that your own views are the 'right' ones. Sadly, from that you will learn little, if anything, of worth.

Take care. Stay safe. ☮️
