Dear LinkedIn: Why Have I Been Suspended? by David Blackmon

Read on Substack<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

I couldn\u2019t figure out how to embed the video, so I took a screenshot:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His account has vanished from LinkedIn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I reposted his Substack video on LinkedIn. I\u2019ll let y\u2019all know if I get \u201cdisappeared.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While it is possible that someone hacked his account, I think it\u2019s more likely that a ski instructor, pilot\/songwriter or some other LinkedIn-recognized energy experts complained about something he posted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

David Blackmon\u2019s Substack is very appropriately titled \u201cEnergy Transition Absurdities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While coal may have surpassed renewables (wood) in the late 1800\u2019s, we never transitioned away from consuming wood for energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
