Once again.
Do not link to #substack
Every click to substack is a fraction of a dollar into the pockets of the techbros who own it, and they DIRECTLY fund the ethnonazionalist, christofascist tRumpo regime.
Publishing in substack YEARS after the tehcbros who own it openly admitted using the revenue to affect politics in favor of fascism is basically endorsement of their actions.
I don’t completely disagree with the idea of starving techbros by avoiding clicks, but I also understand that sources outside of capitalist and fascist media (the 2 are linked) are few and far between. There are still good people and reliable sources who have to work within the structures controlled by the powers that be. And not everyone is joining the Fediverse like Mastodonians wish. Frankly, there are groups who don’t feel supported on this platform for valid reasons. So where do we go to get important information and mutual support if we forever stop clicking on Substack or Twitter sources that have earned our trust?
@micchiato @nando161 devil needs no advocate.
Starve techbros. Period. Anything after that is just apology of the nazi bar.
You don't have to agree with me. You being wrong is evident.
@micchiato easy. Here we can find ORIGINAL sources. Scientists. Researchers. SMEs. Artists. Activists. First hand witnesses. Journalists who left the mainstream #DTBO media.
You are at the #fediverse, my brother in crisps. It's not about the meme scrolling. FIND PEOPLE.There are accounts entirely dedicated to that.
If you still can't see this, maybe you will never find any. Step out of the mental laziness and put EFFORT into something. That is how you know it's worth something.
Finding good sources in an internet aggressively swamped with bullshit is not "easy".
The argument to never click on substack etc is all very well and good and fair, but insults and condescension really don't help your case.
