And obviously the law of averages means that many of my twitter followers and blog readers likely disagree with my views anyway, either to the right or the left. Which is just fine, of course. But I figured airing political views might upset people... 3/10
...so, like any experimental archaeologist would, I figured that if I was doing something foolish and probably self-destructive, I should at least gather data...in this case to see if I hemorrhaged followers on account of having an opinion... 4/10
A week in, at the end of the experiment, I am +56 twitter followers, +12 blog subscribers, and +16 patrons. So apparently, no! Fun unexpected data! I did get a fair bit of feedback on the post itself, almost all quite friendly, even if several were in polite disagreement. 5/10
As an aside, I don't think the new follows were politics related either - they mostly came in today as a response to the fresh post about wootz steel and cast iron (https://acoup.blog/2020/11/06/collections-iron-how-did-they-make-it-addendum-crucible-steel-and-cast-iron/ …). 6/10
And the blog got its very first blocked commenter, from someone who seemed terribly upset about this tank joke: https://twitter.com/BretDevereaux/status/1324118041379176463 … which is fine, I can take disagreement in comments - but then went on to start trolling other commenters, which is not fine - thus block. 7/10
To be honest, I am not sure that anyone who doesn't enjoy the occasional tank pun is going to really get along with the whole project here - if you don't like tank jokes, you'll never be a real Challenger in the comments, much less a Chieftain. That's just Patton-ly obvious. 8/10
In any event, as I write this, that fellow is still creating dummy accounts to try to get around the block, evidently unaware that new commenters go straight into the moderation holding box so that they are currently screaming that I "won't silence them" into the void. 9/10
In any event, thanks all for being polite and civil, even in disagreements and I promise more ancient history related stuff to come on the blog (although the next couple of weeks may be a bit thin on account of a real-world work crunch as the semester ends). end/10
