Leonard Pitts today

Is it the position of The Spokesman-Review that 74 million conservative voters are a cult equivalent to murderers and killers? And that Trump should be prosecuted — and myself and all of the rest of the 74 million as well? Am I not understanding what I think I am reading?

If not, I wonder if anyone reads the thoughts printed by this man (Leonard Pitts, Nov. 30) before they are inserted into your paper? This is your position after all. Awhile back I wondered how Russia could influence our elections as they spent so little money, and all the rest of the media and the tech influence is ALL propaganda. All printed words are — or can be.

I thought your people and the left media wanted us to heal. These are not healing words. Along with AOC and others in cancel culture calling for lists of names of those who supported Trump. That basically our careers and lives should be destroyed. I read a lot in high school and college. Vaguely, I remember Orwell’s “1984,” burning books and all of the rest of these type ideas.
