Lorenzo has been a revelation and your hypothesis is true in my case, but I pretty much had to subscribe after reading "And I admit, these days, posting anything on Facebook makes me feel like I’m playing air guitar in a retirement home parking lot."
I have to admit that over the last few months I spent some time trying to track down what Lorenzo's cancelation crime actually was. Did he drop the "N-word" bomb on a marginalized and racialized minority? Did he attempt to explain to a feminist that psychological traits can be acted upon by natural selection? Now I know that I was Waaay off.
"Classical liberals care, for the most part, about economics. Conservatives—Lorenzo is one—often have a stronger interest in literature and the arts."
And yet, while reading Lorenzo in the 2011+ timeframe, I found his discussions of economics issues much clearer than some others on offer.
"On September 9th—at 12 noon BST—Lorenzo and I will do the first in a series of Zoom chats for paid subscribers only. " I understand this translates to 7am in US EDT time (and probably 10pm for Lorenzo?)
Does my recent subscription to Lorenzo's substack count for this? Should I plan on a separate subscription for Not On Your Team for this Zoom arrangement? And tip payments are separate from substack subscriptions, right?

Finally, we get the long-awaited Lorenzo Warby backstory and it didn't follow the course I was expecting. As always, major commendation goes to Helen for lending Lorenzo a helping hand; if not for her kindness, we might never have encountered his work. Let's hope this is a new chapter and a proper resolution to the story.
I'm sorry Lorenzo has been put through the wringer like that, and I'm glad to get to read his fabulous essays through this substack. Good luck with the inaugural Zooming. I can't join this one but hope to join one in the future.
I am sorry for Lorenzo but I just cannot understand his fascination with cancellation. Just get over it. There are really important issues and problems that deserve attention. I have been cancelled several times and while it is frustrating and hurtful, one can, one must, move on.
Lorenzo is brilliant. It’s absolutely why I am here. I’ve been thinking about and studying these issues for 20 years, and I’ve never read someone with as much insight connecting such a wide degree of informational sources.
I’ve slowly started to do the same after studying “liberal arts” in college, later law, then, after having children, evolutionary psychology & the heritability of characteristics. It’s hard to tie it all together, but Lorenzo seems to be the guy to do if.

Who is Lorenzo?
Why is there a picture of Bob Ellis?
Zoom? Sorry, too many red flags. Literally.
