I don't believe I made an derogatory remarks about anyone. Yet from earning about $2000 per month and above on Medium, plus having 3 or 4 of my pieces selected for distribution each week, I am down to about $2.50 per day.

One of my articles was distributed in early December. It had one word in it that drew a certain element - trans.

In 10 days, I had 4 warnings from Medium - the last one that I would be suspended and my work no longer distributed. Not one of my pieces has been distributed for six months.

If you go to Medium terms and conditions, you will see certain groups are protected. One cannot criticize them, no matter how much evidence one provides.

In the comments section, I had a certain number of people put words into my mouth. WhenI finally responded, they had what they wanted - evidence to get me removed from Medium.

I am decidedly not woke. I live a highly ethical life, work towards the greater good of all humanity, will not be influenced by mob mentality, etc. When my earning capacity is affected, as was JK Rowlings and multiple other writers who dared to give a different point of view in one area or another, then this is not something I support.

I hve been lucky in that someone stepped forward to give me enough money to live for a year, and during that year I will be able to set up in another area of writing.
