Interesting essay! I especially like the line about living in a new Salem with the "progressives" as the witchfinders. I'm also going to have to get off dead center and read Thompson's Fear and Loathing on the '72 election. I was 12yo then and I became fascinated with politics. I watched the conventions for both parties on TV, B&W because my dad wasn't wasting money on color TV. I've come a long way since then.
If you're going to experience any censorship here, it will more likely come from Stripe than Substack itself. You can do what you want, though.
How much of a crossover will there be with TOM? I enjoy your posts there, but I find it difficult to comment because discus doesn't like my phone for some reason.
Anyway, welcome, finally, to Substack. This should be fun!

I've long read The Other McCain. I advise the young fellas I know to do the same as you have much sage advice about women. Welcome to Substack.

As Jesse Ventura once said, there’s a lot of Kayfabe in politics.
