I write this with a heavy heart as I respect both sides. Now that both camps seem entrenched on their respective sides, supporters like myself feel forced to take a side.
I have stated since Steven announced his departure from The Blaze that The Daily Wire is not a fit for him. As long time friends, I thought both DW and SC would understand that best. This is something that could have been avoided - should have been avoided, but wasn’t.
I’ve chronicled the posts that started and fueled the rage while including my reaction posts in between.
I will update this post with any follow up information I deem worth noting.
For those of you on Substack, I recommend following the official LWC Substack for updates
