Honestly, I'm more than happy to get hate mail most days. It means you're reading RideApart, and a hate click is still a click. And daddy loves those clicks.
But the fact that I got comments and emails about our coverage of SEMA's continued support of the current Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum, and those folks stating that "No, in fact, he's good for public land access! We now have a seat at the table!" while also bemoaning REI members' hatred toward off-roaders, well, I really wanted to reply to everyone "Are you kidding me?!" I'd then point to literally everything that man, and this administration, have done toward selling every ounce of public land off.
We may have a seat at the table, but the table's on fire, and they're pouring gasoline onto it.
