While on the topic of people having baggage, including detractors, I have
some people who like to attack me.

Here's one of those attack pieces:

... the writer is publicly fine-tooth combing through what he can glean of
my bio, on a fishing expedition for some kind of scuttlebutt.

Then this guy on Youtube likes to attack me a lot and has followed me onto
math-teach.

https://youtu.be/AsD3K_oxV6E  (not sure if I'm mentioned in this one, never
mind, not suggesting your watch it)

So now, in mentioning these detractors, have I thereby attacked them?  Am I
kicking at sleeping dogs then?  My bad.

Anyway, my point is many of us will have accumulated some "anti-fans" over
the years, and that's part of what it means to have an identity.

Certainly we can relate that general observation to the theme of Cuba and
the fact that peoples become factional and fractious.

We can fight over whom we think is good, is evil.  That's always good for a
few reams.

I think Josephine might find some friends on Diversity, where people are
more up on the latest scandals, not to mention shoptalk.
