My Letter to the Editor: States of Confusion

I truly love reading both Street Talk and these LTEs, terrific spots in which I'm exposed to so many viewpoints, all being what makes our US of A such a good place to be!  There are and will always be issues and I pray good people will recognize and resolve them.

The LTE section is an open forum , as noted at the page top, wherein it's defined, 'Opinion.' Some are debatable, 4ntertaining, enlightening, hilarious, questionable, painful, but all reflect the right to free speech. Today's episode, (7-12-23). brings me to my confusion of sorts and not a personal attack on his intellect. Mr. J H wrote a fine opinion, which, in part stated,

'What I don’t have is the right to demand that The Post, or any publication or broadcaster spread my opinions on their platforms.'

My conundrum: We who submit opinions accept publication and its inherent dissemination to all who subscribe. Right?  If we don't wish to have said letters published, we should make the request known and it would then be read by only the editor. The only option is to not send the letter. Doing that, though, no one would know your feelings/opinions. Right? Again, not an attack, merely an observation. 

My goat sent me a text, informing that this really gets his human! The meaning of WOKE is 'aware of and actively attentive to important societal facts and issues' Those 11 words emphatically tell us that people have studied and are understanding of its content. Yet, those who don't agree with its definite intent have chosen to defy logic by turning it 180 degrees! That qualifies their thinking as a 'What the Hell moment!' I'm told Satan himself rolled his eyes on that one! By the way, in the book, '1984,' re-writing fact and history is the task of the book's main character.

Finally, (you're welcome), when writing, I use italics, bold and occasional words with all upper case to accentuate moods. I called Al Gore, 'inventor of the internet,' to explain why The Post takes away my methodology, His response was an emphatic, 'Huh!' So, Mr. B.T.,. any help on your end?
