I appreciate that this column might be an uncomfortable read for some people. I hope there’s value in it for you regardless. I deeply appreciate the subscribers who enable me to do the work that I think is important and to share a perspective that I’m not seeing elsewhere. Every share and subscription — paid or unpaid — is so appreciated.
