Cheers to Substack. Time to start looking into these reader numbers. No way he has 174,000 real subscribers, before the hysteria he had little engagement on his posts. Same goes for Katz.

I disagree. These are the ones who were bullied, afraid of their own shadow, would rather be at the back of the line than get a fat lip from standing up to the bullies. Now, in adulthood and their blue-bubbles they feel somehow important.

I hadn't looked at it that way, and I think you're right about that. I also think they weren't loved as children and that they have dissociative disorder to some degree or another. They're very dangerous.

From the about section of Katz's website:

Jonathan Myerson Katz is a journalist and author who has reported on politics, conflict, human migration, and disasters around the world. His work has appeared in the New York Times and New York Times Magazine, the Atlantic, Foreign Policy, New Republic, New Yorker, Washington Post, Guardian, and elsewhere.

For eight years, Katz was a reporter and editor for the Associated Press.....

Does anyone better epitomize how horrendously propagandist establishment journalism is now?

PS: If Biden wins in 2024 Substack will be under enormous pressure to deplatform hysterics like 2nd Smartest Guy in the World. They're already thinking now they can throw a little piece of offal at the howlers and get them to back off.

Anyone who really believes in the sanctity of free speech should be writing to Substack to express disappointment with what they've just done.

If Biden wins then we'll know the election has been rigged.

I believe they will TRY to steal the election. But that's if we even HAVE an election. That President Trump is wiping the floor with ALL of his challengers so far and showing major voter preference points over Biden should give us pause to remember that the Globalist/ Uniparty/ Deep State can, is already interfering, and will ramp up its interference with the 2024 election for certain.

I have long suspected that the NY Times and other mainstream newspapers stay in business by having fake digital subscriptions - the propaganda value is worth it for those willing to pay.

If so, NY Times insider Casey Newton would be aware of it and whatever dark organization fakes digital subscribers to launder money.

I wonder if anyone has brought that to the attention of the PCAOB since the NYT is a publicly traded company.

There are no shortages of govt workers with jobs for life who might subscribe and believe all this propaganda BUT yea, fake subscriptions would help to launder money and make it look organic...

He admitted that the promotion that Substack uses through Notes and having publications recommend other publications readers may want to subscribe to gained him an additional 70,000 readers. He wasn't the least bit thankful for the boost in readers. Instead, he claimed that was a problem because the so called "Nazis" would be boosted, as well. Talk about being ungrateful 😂

What information did you manage to glean from this Substack post?

Expand full comment

Alright to satisfy your curiosity (though 99% sure yours is only a rhetorical question) I'll do this from my memory of what I read from this SS rather than re-reading to disambiguate what you indicate is clear:

I thought that the owners of Substack had refused to censor or deplatform the alleged Nazis as was the demand of the NYT journalist and his posse of umbrage-taking couch-fainters... as I recall, the article just wrote about SS telling them to kick sand and releasing their own open letter explaining that it turned out that the "infestation of Nazis" accusation was only made on the evidence of 5 Substacks with a combined total of 132 readers, none of whom were paid subscribers. The article then discusses things like how disingenuous the NYT reporter is, that he up and quit SS with his posse, the dangers of "hate speech" and censorship, etc.

Reading the comments, I find your thread talking about SS caving-in.

Maybe I overlooked an update or some replies that explained it. I'd assume that SS eventually decided to ban the supposed Nazis... if so what made them crack/who got to them?

Because it advocates a European invasion of the middle east in one of the last gasp colonial land grabs? Because it advocates ethnic cleansing? Maybe go chat with Lee Camp or Max Blumenthal about it.

If you are up for a bit of reading I'd recommend "Zionism. The real enemy of the Jews" by Alan Hart (Golda Meir's good friend). One rabbi told him "You have summed up the problem for Jews in 7 words".

I can't prove the 2020 election was stolen either. But a LOT of things happened that statistically are extremely, extremely unlikely. Followed by circling the wagons to avoid answering any questions. As was said a million times when Trump was investigated by Mueller/Weisman for colluding with the Russians to steal the election, "if he didn't do anything wrong, what does he have to hide?

I'm not going to just pretend I didn't see this stuff.

If anyone did anything to the US election it would have been China, not Russia from my observations. They have far more to gain and a reason to get back at the guy. DT stuck it into them in a big way when he became POTUS and that was a signal for them to get to it and work on keeping him out. They Dems only claimed collusion with the Russians because DT reached out to Putin where as they have been doing the opposite. Its really easy to claim "collusion" when your enemy makes friends with your enemy. Its all part of the game. Unfortunately, you lot are going to the polls again and you can bet there will be even bigger problems this time with mail in ballots, counting machines and more importantly, Dominion systems being involved. We are facing the same problem, Australians don't realise that some states in this country employ those same systems. You vote with a pencil in this country, Those who know better take a a sharpie of ball point pen and use that.

O's second term was also a 'gift'. ERIC boasted in 2021 it 'located' 17 million new voters for the 2020 election, the most in the history of their organization, For comparison, they only found 5.7 million new voters in 2012, Obama's reelection.

Both sides of the fence are doing the same thing the leftists and conservatives are all running "provocateurs" in forums. Idiots running round in here playing the anti vax card while calling themselves pure blood and clean blood while referring to the vaxxed as sheeple and mudbloods. (Divide and conquer) is a good example. Both sides are engaged in the same tactics. There is no morality in any war, information or kinetic. It is all about who can lie the best and make the other side look worse than your own and try and get others to defect and wake up the sleeping masses with whatever facts we can so they no longer fall under the influence of the Leftist useful idiots.

if there is an organized conservative provocateur effort that would be surprising.

I have seen people referring to themselves as pureblood, which is silly, given that maybe no one can escape the consequences to the blood from various vectors. Mostly what I have seen on line are un injected people being mostly kind and forgiving and trying to at least present their side. Even if they were reviled, hated and threatened early on.

Where I am there was no problem. Want to inject yourself, go ahead weezy. Wear a muzzle, stand six feet away, whatever.

Yes, there is no morality in war unless you consider the just war theory. There are certain things you don't do. The concept of war to the knife and knife to the hilt always has a say depending on the situation.

There are certain things that are true. Things that are not subjective, not opinion and not negotiable. These things are worth supporting and standing for. Even if it is fashionable to think otherwise.

There is an interesting section in Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations where he applies the economic principles of a "free market" to the clergy.

Which highlights the reality that we have always lived in "that time" where "brands of truth" compete for market share.

I submit we really want to live in that time. We want to have free and unfettered competition among ideas of all kinds. We want people to challenge us, and perhaps even offend us, so that we can encounter as many "brands" of truth as possible.

How else can we ever hope to learn what "truth" really is?

The false-flag technique for swaying public perception described in Saul Alinsky's (infamous) "Rules for Radicals" comes to mind - that is, dressing up as KKK and appearing in the audience of a targeted adversary.

I sense analogous behavior here.

Also suspect: the invocation of the term "Nazi" - which has become a reflexive cudgel on the part of Antifa (amongst others).

Your average current Antifa street theater useful idiot operative is presumptively blissfully ignorant of the fact that "Nazi" is/was an acronym for "National Socialist." And blissfully ignorant of the fact that Antifa originated in 1930's Germany as the Communist street-thug counterforce to the National Socialists' "brown shirts." It was all an internecine struggle between two forms of Collectivism - Fascists / Communists - as to which would be top-dog in Germany.

But then, the Communists (Lenin?) didn't refer to their blissfully ignorant allies as "useful idiots" for nothing.

I am weary of the predictable public name calling. I despise hearing a person's name introduced with words like, left-leaning, religious right, antisemitic, homophobe, etc. Branding people is a way of smearing, prejudging and belittling a person. The corporate news does routinely when speaking of world leaders or anyone they disagree with. Since the fake Insurrection event of 1/6/2020, we see attempts to eviscerate the first amendment criminalizing freedom of assembly (peaceful gatherings/protest), and free speech.

Collectivists - Communists / Fascists / Socialists / Progressives - always seek to exploit people in desperate circumstances by promising them variations of utopia / "heaven on earth" ("workers paradise" / "thousand year Reich" and so on).

In fact, if the desperate circumstances aren't available, Collectivists through subversion, sabotage and demoralization work to create them. See, e.g., the current activities of the unelected Biden-Harris Junta.

Well I do censorship because anything from the mainstream media in any form does not compute into my awareness. If the government is talking, I usually am never listening. I reserve the right to filter out the garbage I do not want coming into my sphere. That includes all woke and most liberal nonsense. The second I see any wokeness on TV, I switch it off. As you can guess, other than older movies, I don't watch much TV.

I have been "xed" out and banned from a few substack sites. Some of these writers cannot accept anything that challenges their supreme arrogance. If I was to write articles for public purview, I wouldn't care who said what. I am offering an opinion, and anyone who does or doesn't agree is fine with me.

I don’t watch tv. This year I’m considering excluding myself completely from politics.
