Pre-Substack, I spent a lot of time on Medium. I was probably well-within their target audience for potential subscribers. I even wrote a few satirical articles on the current state of politics.
Then, they shadow-banned me. My articles were pure satire, but I suspect satire is lost on algorithms. Plus, just like mainstream reporting on Russia-gate and so many other things, mistakes get made, and they all happen to go in one direction (hint, it ain't pro-Red).
You're better off without Medium. I never subscribed there, and I rarely even hit the '3 monthly reads then paywall' cap any more. It's become less and less relevant as Substack takes off. Honestly, the quicker we eliminate these censorious platforms, the better.
I think there are more political homeless than either party is aware of. We are the silent majority choosing the lesser of two evils. They Dems have become loony and the GOP can't walk and chew gum. Obama had so much promise for Hope and Change, but when he failed to kill the Patriot Act, I knew we were in trouble. Our current political wheel is just like Game of Thrones, it's time to break the wheel and force a third party.
Yeah I could go on about Obama's failed promises forever LOL.
But as you said, both sides leave a lot to be desired; but the silent majority is objectively watching all this, and definitely picking up on the censorship madness of the left wing.
Yeah, Medium is an amen corner for regressives. 'can't say I'm surprised. After years of being tolerated despite spewing nonstop invective, they're finally getting some push back and they can't handle it. It's their loss. Over time they'll find themselves in a shrinking corner, at which time they'll reinvent themselves, well, relabel themselves anyway. Good riddance. Until then I'm still finding some interesting palaver under economy and investing. And I've subscribed to you and a few others on substack and find it's a real treasure trove.
I applaud your courage and bold messages in these times of blue-pilled masses and their keepers. Every day I’m astonished as I witness: This isn’t just dystopian SciFi, it’s more horrifically real by the day. Can the pendulum swing any further? Are we now at a few seconds before midnight for a “humanity doomsday clock” signaling full authoritarian control is in-play?
Seeing that article get censored one week before the midterms made my stomach churn. I'd rather have healthy debates in the comments -- as that article had -- then have things completely removed. I try to remain sanguine during these dark days.
Isaiah, please leave the centralised social media outlets asap. They're gonna silence every truth-teller out there. Leave their constructs completely.
I quit paying taxes 12 years ago and moved south. I now rent a sweet condo right on the beach in mx and don't even have a bank account anymore, making me un-sue-able. I live here on crypto and don't even have to go shopping or take out my own trash anymore since the staff here will do it for a pittance. There's over 100 different fruit tress in the gated community here and wells dug throughout. Security is taken care of too, if you know what I mean. My rent for this 2 bedroom condo is about $1000 usd/month, but it's worth it due to all the other stresses I have been able to say goodbye to.
F*ck governments. F'ck'm all. We vote to have our will imposed on that guy, and then a few years later that guy votes to have his will imposed on us. It's a zero sum game. We scream that governments do this or that for us, when in reality we could do those things for ourselves if governments would just get the f*ck out of the way and stop trying to extort us and scare us with all these lies and scams.

Hi Isaiah, Maybe you know me from Medium. I'll feature this story and will write a shorty about censorship on Medium. I bet you have a better open rate on Substack than on Medium ^^
I don't know about medium, it's turned into a weird crowd, I am still on thier but debate dropping it everytime i log in. California covid recommendations are finally pretty good, the cdc has corrected most of the wrong stuff ... but your recommendations are buried in the website. Eating healthy, wearing decent face masks like the eu standart ffp2 and get outside exercise would be a good starting point in headlining the cdc website. Substack is awesome though. Appreciate your viewpoint.
Yeah I didn't even know COVID was a touchy subject anymore, that's why I was surprised from by the censorship. I probably could have recommended Vitamin D a few years ago and lost everything on Medium LOL.
Where is there any credible data that face masks do anything? I’ve looked everywhere. Go watch the bear spray videos on YouTube and watch how effective those masks really are (not). Read up on everything published by Steve Kirsch to see how despite offering big money for debates to those who keep spinning the BS narrative , no expert will do anything but hide from the facts. The world is being duped to a degree I never imagined was possible. It’s in plain view for anyone who is brave enough to see it.
What the masks DO do is toxify your body even more by recirculating the toxins your body is trying to exhale, as well as starving your body of oxygen which kills your cells and toxifies you even faster. Don't even get me started on the number of chemicals you breathe in from them. There's evidence that there are even some heat-activated microscopic critters in those things too (vigilante.tv/w/p/1ZMkm5vbaG9Cm4Bx5oRBYX). I've never worn a mask and never will.
Have you seen Simon Rosenberg on YouTube? Check it out. Great news there on this mess. Ty
Check out vigilante.tv, some good news channels there as well.

Keep up the great work.
The quality of articles is going down.
I don't know how self-help writers have been able to write about the same shit for years now and not get bored.
Def going to try and build out my audience and bring them here.
Though I hope it's not too late, thanks for the comment Laramie!
It’s boycotting time, my friends.

Never thought I'd be in it HAHA.

Thanks H Myers, apologies your comments on the original were removed; trying to get that back up now. Crazy times. I'm not backing down.

Possibly.

Smart move to do that 12 years ago! You’ve summed up the situation in your post beautifully.

The truth offends. Keep sharing your thoughts, ideas, feelings, and opinions. They matter. And so do you.
I've slowly started reading more on Substack, leaving Medium and a couple other platforms behind. Keep up the good work and drive on.
