Several people on Facebook have unfriended me since I remarked on my wish, yesterday, to help Nury Martinez, the disgraced former L.A. councilwoman. (If you have been under a rock, here’s a summary of why she is so vilified.) I have written before of my calling to the cancelled. I know how to survive a cancellation, the loss of an income, public disgrace, criminal charges, homelessness. Though every cancellation is different, they are also all the same: the outrage, the shame, the initial defiance (sometimes bravado) of the cancelled — all soon followed by the devastating, unimaginably painful loss of status, respect, security, and friendship.
I can't speak for anyone but myself, but I found this post extremely moving and courageous. I wish more people would stand up and say what (I believe) they really feel about this particular zeitgeist.

Hmmm-
All this exposure and getting hell bent on punishing those who fail to be perfect is absurd. “People in glass houses….”
When did the “moral police” walk into town? This is still America right?
