If you do end up reading it, I'd love to hear what you think :)
Gotta say, when the downvote brigade comes for a comment like the one I made above, it says to me that it's not about the title of the post, or the article's merits. Opinions will differ, of course!
People really just don't want to hear legit criticism of Carney, and will attempt to silence anyone who dares to. I had a large Liberal-supporter's account on Bluesky add me to their public blocklist of "toxic trolls", next to accounts like LibsOfTikTok, because I said - and this is verbatim - "Carney's housing plan is not FDR-like, sorry".
One of the top two comments in these replies makes a point that the piece itself actually agrees with - so they clearly hadn't even read it yet. The other one complains about the fact that the topic was chosen at all. So much for discourse!
Anyway, I've had plenty worse said about stuff I've written (a different essay whipped up a bunch of controversy on the orange site recently).
So, while I won't claim it doesn't sting at all when people are dismissive and rude, my skin is starting to get thicker, haha
