Hmm ... it doesn't have any of my markers for "rant" (i.e. personal attacks, blaming, vulgarity) and it encouraged conversation.

That's a relief to hear, actually. Maybe my post wasn't as off-putting as I'd first thought. (That's me, always erring on the side of caution...!)

Perhaps you could simply retouch your points in a way that would make them feel more positive and inviting to you, and share them on crowdfunding (now or later)...?

I could do that, although I wouldn't be able to give you a revised post until this weekend at the earliest. Would that be all right?

Thanks for being so receptive to my opinions. :)
