I'm over my self-pitying rant.

I will stop reading comments before I stop posting.

I think, though, that helping people understand the First Amendment issues at stake in the gag orders is less important than helping people understand that the real danger to democracy is misinformation and disinformation, and these things cannot be fixed through the legal system.

@Teri_Kanefield Please, please, PLEASE keep doing exactly what you are doing. Your patience and wisdom are needed, even when readers choose not to apply critical thought to the situation. Thank you Teri.
