It’s not politics, but it often leans into it: Because of Substack I am not just a food writer but an activist able to weave sensible gun reform commentary into my newsletters.

There are 2 types of Jews, the Zionists claim to be Jews but they are not...they are the imposters....they are the original Khazars who took on the Jewish identity for political and power purposes. They follow the Talmud as their life guide which includes the worship of Baal/Moloch. The traditional Jews are the original Israelites and they follow the original Torah. aka the Old Testament. You need to distinguish between the two groups. The Zionists have infiltrated politicians and media and have become the Deep State that is destroying our country and the world. A little research goes a long way.
Did I just read that right, Anne Byrn? A food writer weaving gun commentary into your newsletters? We must be related -- I write about macrame knotting while weaving in abortion rights.
This from a neo-Nazi. You couldn't define "woke," even with access to Google. You keep just repeating right wing rhetoric that you heard on Faux News. You are the anti-intellect.
The short answer is I believe we should bring back the federal assault rifle ban. Now 10 states have their own bans on these weapons, which I am sure you know are rapid-fire and designed for combat use. They have been linked to some of the deadliest shootings in the US. The longer answer is that I live in the state of Tennessee where our gun laws are beyond relaxed. Here in TN, where gun violence is the number one killer of children, taking more lives than car accidents, we want gun owners to jump through a few more hoops before they can access a weapon. This is in the aftermath of the tragic killings of school children and teachers at the Covenant School in March. In TN, for example, background checks are not required for private firearm sales, including online sales and those at gun shows. Drive through any state in the South, and on the backroads you will see signs for gun shows. Like I said, this is the long answer. We have a HUGE problem in Nashville with gun owners leaving their weapons in vehicles. Cars are broken in, and firearms get into the wrong hands. Tennessee leads the nation in the number of firearms stolen from vehicles. I don’t want to take away anyone’s rights. I want us to come together as a compassionate country and say, what can we do. How can we make our country a safer place for all?
Safety is one of the most favorite illusions of would be tyrants. And that's exactly what you are, despite all the cuddly language about coming together in compassion.
You want to take rights away, full stop. At least be honest about it.
That sounds reasonable. A few years back Diane Feinstein proposed confiscating all firearms. The left loves ideas like that but never gives any solution on how to get firearms of the hangs of gangs who killed about 9,000 people in the inner cities in 2021,
There are no easy answers to complex problems. Only fools and politicians (but then I repeat myself) have the easy answers.
It always hurts me when I hear some nut job has opened fire in a crowded area, especially a school.
Look at the number of firearms turned in after the Good Friday agreement in Ireland. People were paid to turn in their guns. Northern Ireland is a safe place to live today. I was there in June.
I'd like to reply to Ms. Byrn's statement about gun deaths in Tennessee being the number one killer of children in the state. (Sept. 9, yes, a while back...)
Clearly Ms. Byrn should take a closer look. Tragic as they are, the highest concentration of child deaths by guns in the generally safe state of Tennessee is in Davidson County (which includes Nashville), with its large black population, gang violence and higher crime in general. And the vast majority of the children killed are black. What sensible person wouldn't want to reduce that? But how? By, as always, penalizing the law abiding? Twisting statistics?
"Here in TN, where gun violence is the number one killer of children..." is a hell of a deception. Does no one have the courage to say "black children?" And to say it again and again and again?
If you want to make our country "a safer place for all," then go to Davidson County, or the South Side of Chicago, East L.A., and Bed-Stuy, and try spreading some of that naive liberal pixie-dust on those folks.
When liberals start being honest with statistics I'll begin to listen to liberal arguments.
This sort of writing was why I completely STOPPED reading the NY Times travel or weekend "insert" that would appear in certain foreign (at the time Manila...) newspapers e.g. a travel article writer started ranting about Bush in a travel article where I DON'T WANT TO READ ABOUT POLITICS... I have not seen a NY Times insert in some years now in foreign papers, or at-least where I live now - I am probably not the only one who stopped reading the insert...
Your sentence is meaningless and comunicates nothing. TWITTER (X) is for very short BLA..BLA without people explaining nothing. Full of subjectivity. No calm analysis. Smile to your in your desorganized loneliness. TWITTER (X) is not the right fórum for real exchange between people.
After having read the supposed criticisms of this man, I believe a few word's of common sense are in order.
First of all, why anyone would use inappropriate four letter words to support a contrary opinion in intellectual discourse is beyond me (see below).
Secondly, I while flowong, happy analysis may seem more palatable, it pales in comparison to the truth of the of message.
The Watchman points us in the direction of Dane Wigington at geoengineeringwatch.org who is factually and morally leading to an evil that is being hidden in front of our eyes while it threatens to destroy our very existence. No major new source acknowledges, let alone warns us of this blatent atrocity.
I give the Watchman credit for doing so.
Thirdly, where did anyone read that the Watchman claimed to be antisemitic? I find that he is a God-fearing Christion who has no choice but to love his neighbors and certainly not hate Jews. He may speak out against Zionism, but my understanding is that this group is far from those gathered in Isreal as a sign of the "Second Coming " I don't know enough about Zionism at this poon, so I just use the generic term of "subhuman" to refer to the evil controllers of the world.
I suggest that if you take issue with the Watchman, or anyone else that you don't agree with, you ask yourself why and gather sufficient facts, before you crucify them!
Dear Watchman. From me, Thomas, living and working in Africa. I reallly your radical inSight that moves you want to wake people up. But I would some love, some smiles and hope. Your feeling of us being domei, even if it is correct, it is not mobilising anybody. Right now Africa is waking up. SPRINGTIME in the hearts. BRICS+ !!! in the hearts. The world is not AMERICA. Your american díspar is .....very understandable dear Watchman ... BUT it is also american. Look up and out dear man watching!
We are all trying to awaken people. But most seem to have an agenda that hampers truth. What's your take on Geoengineering as a tool of the controllers of the world?
I have been following and supporting Dane Wigington for the past eight years. When you talk about sheep who fail to be awakened to truth and are blind to what's in front of their very eyes, even when semiconcsious,
Geoengineering is the most dangerous and well hidden reality, sraring us in plain sight, by those you call "Zionists, " and threatens to destroy our world before anything else matters. I need a little more clarification on pinpointing these controllers whom I now refer to as Subhumans. I know this is somewhat generic, but it serves my purposes at this point in my knowledge base.
One thing that I can say is your awareness of this far-reaching atrocity boads well for my initial respect for your insight and knowledge. Thanks, Larry
The plain fact is that the ADL (along with the corrupt Biden crime family) is viciously attacking X/Musk/twschiter for political reasons, so when "Zionist conspiracies" are right out in the open for everyone to see, the term becomes pretty meaningless.
Dear Wachman. I like your energy. But your languíeis hacking in smiles and good-humoured distance. You must establish a commonness with your readers. Do not assume that they jus-like-that gares that the world is infiltrated by those nazi brainiacs. What will you do about it, watchman? If your readers can sense the SPRINGTIME of the future, maybe they can mobilize the energy to read your analysis - in great numbers. But your language needs to become agreeable and nice and artistically so. What I mean is GET REAL. Dont assume the you are in front! Maybe you are .....??...behind. :) :)
Sorry for my language mistakes: I repeat here corrected: Dear Wachman. I like your energy. But your language is lacking in smiles and good-humoured distance. You must establish a commonness with your readers. Do not assume that they just-like-that agree that the world is infiltrated by tose nazi brainiacs. What will you do about it, watchman? If your readers can sense the SPRINGTIME of the future, maybe they can mobilize the energy to read your analysis - in great numbers.

The fact that she is coming from the Washington Post is a red flag, considering that WaPo is the quintessential "legacy media" outlet. You've got a good thing going at Substack. I hope she doesn't screw it up.
So long as Substack is a wide open forum for all political views, even radical ones, along any axis, then it will be valuable. Readers should have access to all views that don't actually advocate unlawful activity -- very, very broad scope for expression, nothing less. Let the readers be range fed, unsupervised adults who are responsible for their own assessment of who is factually baseless, or too crazy, or even too malicious to read. Tolerate BAD speech, and let the response be superior and correct speech that sets the record straight, not some hidden committee, no matter how well intentioned, babysitting your readers. If Substack becomes a censored and monotone venue, it will be useless. (Catherine's background at WaPo and CNN do not bode well. Those are partisan outfits, not only not trusted but reviled by tens of millions of Americans. So, trust will have to be earned, it will not be granted gratis at the outset.)

The Democrat Party has always been the racist party. It was the party of:
Slavery
The Confederacy
The KKK
Jim Crow
The denying of equal opportunity for whites and Asians
All of the Dem presidents in the 20th century (the jury is still out on JFK) were racists. Robert Byrd a powerful Dem Jim Crow Senator filibustered the 1964 civil rights bill. It was the longest filibuster in Senate history. The only way the filibuster was broken was with the votes from the evil racists Republican and the bill was passed. This Jim Crow racist went on to be elected by his Democrat senate peers to the highest offices in the senate. He was elected Senate Whip, Senate Majority Leader, Senate Minority leader and President Pro Tempore. He held one of these offices in succession for 20 years ending in 2007.
Where is the PC/Woke outrage? Statues are being torn down, streets and schools renamed. Abraham Lincoln's statue was pull down. And now Dems support racism against whites and Asians. How come the Democrat Woke tyrants aren't demanding the racist Dem Party be dismantled?
Both parties disgust me but I despise the Socialists/Democrats.
I’m new here on Substack and I’m not from the States. I’m from Jamaica, and we have a saying here that goes - “If America sneeze Jamaica catches it” - which simply means whatever happens in America affects us in Jamaica. Now, all I can say as it relates to Substack venturing into politics is that I hope our privacy remains protected here, there’s no data mining or leaks and we still have freedom of speech.
Thank you Birgitte! 😊 I’m excited to be here. A friend introduced me to the platform, and I’m happy to have published my first post yesterday. Looking forward to growing and connecting with others on here.
Thank you for the warm welcome Chandra! I’m happy to hear that your mom loved our country and our people so much that she decided to be here forever. May her soul RIP... It warms my heart to have found someone on here with some Jamaican linkage. 😊 Have you ever visited Jamaica?
Thank you, Dahyna. I am comforted in knowing that she is resting exactly where she wanted to be. My mother owned a home in the foothills of Negril and I went there many years ago before I had children. Where on the island do you live?
You’re probably right. It’s usually a part of market research these days, which makes it easier for them to reach their marketing & sales targets. And I’ll assume there’s more to it...
The personal is political, right? Dissent is patriotic. Both are true, IMO. I enjoy reading political and legal analysis (Jay Kuo and Joyce Vance are two whose newsletters I enjoy). BUT, I can’t stress enough how UTTERLY UNINTERESTED I would be in starting to see politicians posting in Notes. I can choose to avoid their newsletters; but turning a writers/readers safe space into a forum for people skilled at saying a whole lot of nothing would dilute the whole experience.
Absolutely. I loved Obama, but even his books put me to sleep.
My congressional district was redrawn last year and the seat was flipped by a moderate Republican. Knowing he had to straddle the line, I signed up for his emails to give him a chance to show me what he’s made of. SNOOZE FEST. And the guy tries to get a shit ton of mileage out of sucking off veterans that it makes me sick. Vets are important to recognize - heck, I’m married to one. But when all your in-district visits and newsletter content is about one population, it’s really alienating. I think he thinks loving vets is a bipartisan approach, but he’s becoming a one-trick pony. I digress...I don’t want any of this to happen in Notes.
“One of AIPAC’s biggest donors offered $20m if I dropped out of the U.S. Senate race to run against [Tlaib]. I said no. I won’t be bossed, bullied, or bought.”
The offer was reportedly made by Michigan businessman Linden Nelson in October, according to Politico, and the money would have come in the form of $10 million in bundled contributions to Harper’s campaign and $10 million in independent expenditures on his behalf.
It’s unclear how large of a donor Nelson is to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.
Josh Slokum and Bret Weinstein just did a DarkHorse podcast explaining in the detail (2 hours, ugh) that "woke" is a collective version of Cluster B personality disorders. Classic stuff.
JD Haltigan: The Emotional Dysregulation Behind Progressive Authoritarianism
The vulnerable narcissism of the Radical Left
Reporting on humanity, civilization, and the environment
Episode details
We’ve all experienced it. You get in an argument with someone who knows little about the subject they’re talking about, but who is absolutely confident they’re right. Maybe it’s police violence, maybe it’s climate change, or school closures during the pandemic. They’re reciting tired progressive talking points that have been debunked a dozen times over. You’re presenting them with counterarguments that are hardly original, but your interlocutor seems to have never considered them before. Pretty soon they’re backed into a corner.
So they pull out the card you knew was coming from the very beginning: “Oh, so you’re just content to let them die???”
The argument has now pivoted from a dispute over facts and reason to an unwinnable contest over who has the purer heart. And the assumption is, quite clearly, that you’re the monster for having your awful opinions. You can keep arguing if you want, but at this point there’s no more persuasion to be had, if there ever was any. You’ve been condemned for your thought crimes and there’s no appeals process. The person you just wasted ten minutes arguing with will walk away with their position utterly unchanged, but their opinion of you diminished. According to terms you never agreed to, you’ve lost the debate.
Not only does everyone have personal experience with how difficult it can be to change people's minds, but there's also empirical research showing why this is the case. A new study in Current Biology explains why some people seem to be constitutionally incapable of admitting they're wrong. The study shows the underlying mechanism behind being bull-headed, and there may be some ways to get better at recognizing when you're wrong.
...
cont. excerpts
New research published in Current Biology on December 18, 2018, confirms this feeling: people with radical beliefs actually think differently than those without. Specifically, radicals have less metacognitive sensitivity than moderates.
Metacognition refers to the ability to be aware of and analyze one’s own thinking. Metacognitive sensitivity is similar, but more specific: it refers to the ability to distinguish between one’s correct and incorrect judgements. The new paper, titled “Metacognitive Failure as a Feature of Holding Radical Beliefs,” shows that radicals have measurably less metacognitive sensitivity than moderates.
I am not sure about this. As an occasional poliitcal writer, and just-retired academic "of color", I worry that the businness model will, unintentionally to be sure, favor the favorites of the likes and dislikes, in effect marginalizing voices with less politcal power and "visibilty."
I'll give two examples who I did not see mentioned, both great writers, who are stars on Substack: Kareem-Abdul Jabbar and Erik Hoel. The former enjoys world-class status who brings a unique perspective as a Black activist athlete with a keen crap detector, the other, a white former academic reuroscience researcher who, while not overtly politcal--and I susoect quite non-partisan-- has gained street creds with his deep understandings of the science of "consciousness," the pitfalls, both societal and cultural, of AI, as well as the undernining of the public square on social media.
substack executives have sent a few signals that they will ignore the "woke" crazies on the "left", but they skirted around the issue by claiming that they only want to make money, not take sides.
substack executives claim to offer the ability to block tr0lls, but the substack block function only fully works in Notes, and there is no capability for subscribing to crowd sourced block lists.
I agree about the importance of political discourse that’s not fueled by incendiary algorithms, but for me, Substack is the place to get away from all that and enjoy writing that touches on the deeper and more meaningful aspects of the human experience.
Didn't Hamish McKenzie promote that famously detestable racist as seeking "enlightened centrism"? Real hard to trust the political utility of a platform whose contours are shaped by a mind that regards that as even remotely reasonable.
Didn't you write a vaguely stupid post trotting out defanged words like "racist?" Real hard to trust the comments of a poster who's contours are shaped by whatever shitlib mainstream crap he butt chugged this week.
If the voting is as prescribed in our constitution and states do not gerrymander or make voting physically more difficult, then however the way a voter makes their decision is a private matter.

re: Chandra Hardy is a typically INCOMPETENT "woke" culture wars g00n.
Anthropology note:
Human war is old as dirt, and has little or nothing to do with "race".
Humans that were self-domesticating (where INHIBITION was present because of evolved brain structure for it) for greater social cooperation and altruism within their kindship group (gene pool) were more hostile to outsiders because hostility to outsiders enhanced internal group cooperation. They were nice to each other because they were nasty to outsiders (Bowles, see the below reference).
Assuming that evolutionary theory is correct about the African origins of modern humans (Homo Sapiens), then ALL WAR CAN BE BLAMED ON AFRICANS since all modern humans of whatever "race" are descended from african ancestors, and those ancestors "invented" war.
(See Samuel Bowles 2008 Ulam Lectures, Santa Fe Institute on "Why Humans are Both Nasty and Nice".)
Here is how Darwin put it:
Peter Richerson, PhD ecology, UC Davis, quotes Darwin (as an example of group selection hypothesis and the neurobiology of sympathy in "primeval times"):
"It must not be forgotten that although a high standard of morality gives but a slight or no advantage to each individual man and his children over other men of the same tribe, yet that an increase in the number of well-endowed men and an advancement in the standard of morality will certainly give an immense advantage to one tribe over another. A tribe including many members who, from possessing in a high degree the spirit of patriotism, fidelity, obedience, courage, and sympathy, were always ready to aid one another, and to sacrifice themselves for the common good, would be victorious over most other tribes, and this would be natural selection (178-179)."
I could not be more grateful to be writing on a platform that allows for thoughtful political discourse! We need all the ideas on the table, not just the ones on one side or another.
As a retired police officer and former candidate for US Senator in Nevada, I question ( no offense intended), the hiring of a writer whose background rest solely with 2 heavily-biased Liberal media outlets. I would fear that Substack would become another Democratic-leaning entity. I would prefer a candidate with a more neutral background.
There are many good writers on the right here on Substack, Ronald. You just need to find them. You can check my sub list on my profile, there's some there you might like.
Retired police officer? Did you ever shoot a young pregnant Black woman dead in her car for stealing? It started with the slave patrols and modern law enforcement grew out of that. You were the ones that looked the other way and let the white mobs in to steal the Black people who hadn't yet received a fair trial so that they could be hung on trees. And why should we trust you again?
Dr. Musa al-Gharbi would be an excellent choice. Black, heterodox/liberal sociologist whose upcoming book explains how "woke" has become a tool of corrupt globalists that want to reduce the working classes to Neo-Feudalism.
Or John Mcwhorter and Glen Loury.
Or Taibbi & Co.
The main need is for people that are heterodox and that understand that the legacy "left-vs-right" narrative is outmoded and dysfunctional.
Your mental dysfunctions make it impossible for you to be coherent, or to rationally, systematically and objectively process facts and evidence that contradict your bizarre confirmation biases and weird subjective-emotive narratives.
Glad to have you here with us Awakened good souls Ronald J. Moers - I'm sure you know what I'm talking about when I say, Zionists and satanic corporation Elitists, Globalists of Israel totally control U.S. corrupted politics also Europe and Canada. Just look at the Israel Lobby
Censored Al Jazeera documentary exposing the Israel lobby in the U.S. (part 1 of 4). The documentary was never broadcast by Al Jazeera due to pressure from some Jewish groups and individuals. It was eventually leaked to a few groups, which posted some short clips. On November 2nd the first two parts finally became available to the public.
It’s not politics, but it often leans into it: Because of Substack I am not just a food writer but an activist able to weave sensible gun reform commentary into my newsletters. That would NEVER have been possible in traditional journalism. As a result, readers either leave if they disagree with me or a deeper trust is born.
So glad I slid into this comment section... to find this lovely new thing "between the layers" :)
So glad you did too!
So it's all the Jew's fault?..eh smart intelligent person?
There are 2 types of Jews, the Zionists claim to be Jews but they are not...they are the imposters....they are the original Khazars who took on the Jewish identity for political and power purposes. They follow the Talmud as their life guide which includes the worship of Baal/Moloch. The traditional Jews are the original Israelites and they follow the original Torah. aka the Old Testament. You need to distinguish between the two groups. The Zionists have infiltrated politicians and media and have become the Deep State that is destroying our country and the world.

Let's Filet The Messenger - WatchmanForTruth
After having read the supposed criticisms of this man, I believe a few word's of common sense are in order.
First of all, why anyone would use inappropriate four letter words to support a contrary opinion in intellectual discourse is beyond me (see below).
Secondly, I while flowong, happy analysis may seem more palatable, it pales in comparison to the truth of the of message.
The Watchman points us in the direction of Dane Wigington at geoengineeringwatch.org who is factually and morally leading to an evil that is being hidden in front of our eyes while it threatens to destroy our very existence. No major new source acknowledges, let alone warns us of this blatent atrocity.
I give the Watchman credit for doing so.
Thirdly, where did anyone read that the Watchman claimed to be antisemitic? I find that he is a God-fearing Christion who has no choice but to love his neighbors and certainly not hate Jews. He may speak out against Zionism, but my understanding is that this group is far from those gathered in Isreal as a sign of the "Second Coming " I don't know enough about Zionism at this poon, so I just use the generic term of "subhuman" to refer to the evil controllers of the world.
I suggest that if you take issue with the Watchman, or anyone else that you don't agree with, you ask yourself why and gather sufficient facts, before you crucify them!
Dear Watchman. From me, Thomas, living and working in Africa. I reallly your radical inSight that moves you want to wake people up. But I would some love, some smiles and hope. Your feeling of us being domei, even if it is correct, it is not mobilising anybody. Right now Africa is waking up. SPRINGTIME in the hearts. BRICS+ !!! in the hearts. The world is not AMERICA. Your american díspar is .....very understandable dear Watchman ... BUT it is also american. Look up and out dear man watching!
Where in Africa? My family lived in Ethiopia, Liberia and Nigeria.

We are all trying to awaken people. But most seem to have an agenda that hampers truth. What's your take on Geoengineering as a tool of the controllers of the world?
Yes I am aware of this, Watchman.
I have been following and supporting Dane Wigington for the past eight years. When you talk about sheep who fail to be awakened to truth and are blind to what's in front of their very eyes, even when semiconcsious,
Geoengineering is the most dangerous and well hidden reality, sraring us in plain sight, by those you call "Zionists, " and threatens to destroy our world before anything else matters. I need a little more clarification on pinpointing these controllers whom I now refer to as Subhumans. I know this is somewhat generic, but it serves my purposes at this point in my knowledge base.
One thing that I can say is your awareness of this far-reaching atrocity boads well for my initial respect for your insight and knowledge. Thanks, Larry
I can relate to that.

Somehow I received a post from this Substack BBS and started reading this thread.
It seems to me that this is the antisemitic conspiracy Substack BBS.
The plain fact is that the ADL (along with the corrupt Biden crime family) is viciously attacking X/Musk/twschiter for political reasons, so when "Zionist conspiracies" are right out in the open for everyone to see, the term becomes pretty meaningless.

The fact that she is coming from the Washington Post is a red flag, considering that WaPo is the quintessential "legacy media" outlet. You've got a good thing going at Substack. I hope she doesn't screw it up.
Yeah. Maybe she always wanted to write truth but wasn't able?
CNN and WP? Not much hope there.
NO or the NYT
That's what I'm hoping. I don't know anything about her.
So long as Substack is a wide open forum for all political views, even radical ones, along any axis, then it will be valuable. Readers should have access to all views that don't actually advocate unlawful activity -- very, very broad scope for expression, nothing less. Let the readers be range fed, unsupervised adults who are responsible for their own assessment of who is factually baseless, or too crazy, or even too malicious to read. Tolerate BAD speech, and let the response be superior and correct speech that sets the record straight, not some hidden committee, no matter how well intentioned, babysitting your readers. If Substack becomes a censored and monotone venue, it will be useless. (Catherine's background at WaPo and CNN do not bode well. Those are partisan outfits, not only not trusted but reviled by tens of millions of Americans. So, trust will have to be earned, it will not be granted gratis at the outset.)
Hiring someone previously at CNN, now WaPo is a farce.
Not a good sign, to say the least.
Ugh...Washington Post and CNN...why legacy media? And why those two?
CNN used to be called Chicken Noodle News, still is! Bwahahahahhahahaaa.....
Every reasonably astute adult, who is paying attention, knows legacy corporate media is politicized trash; with CNN perhaps the most putrid.

Their ratings are in the toilet because they did a CNN Town Hall with a criminally indicted rapist ex-president and unlike you, some of us actually have a conscience and some morals.
Are you talking about the sexual predator Bil Clinton.
There is only one ex-president who was criminally indicted and found liable for sexual assault. Try again. And study U.S. history.
The sexual predator Bill Clinton perjured himself in from of a federal grand jury and was fined for it by a federal judge. You should read history.

The Democrat Party has always been the racist party. It was the party of:
Slavery
The Confederacy
The KKK
Jim Crow
The denying of equal opportunity for whites and Asians
All of the Dem presidents in the 20th century (the jury is still out on JFK) were racists. Robert Byrd a powerful Dem Jim Crow Senator filibustered the 1964 civil rights bill. It was the longest filibuster in Senate history. The only way the filibuster was broken was with the votes from the evil racists Republican and the bill was passed. This Jim Crow racist went on to be elected by his Democrat senate peers to the highest offices in the senate. He was elected Senate Whip, Senate Majority Leader, Senate Minority leader and President Pro Tempore. He held one of these offices in succession for 20 years ending in 2007.
Where is the PC/Woke outrage? Statues are being torn down, streets and schools renamed. Abraham Lincoln's statue was pull down. And now Dems support racism against whites and Asians. How come the Democrat Woke tyrants aren't demanding the racist Dem Party be dismantled?
Both parties disgust me but I despise the Socialists/Democrats.
For some reason I am blocked from liking your post.
I’m new here on Substack and I’m not from the States. I’m from Jamaica, and we have a saying here that goes - “If America sneeze Jamaica catches it” - which simply means whatever happens in America affects us in Jamaica. Now, all I can say as it relates to Substack venturing into politics is that I hope our privacy remains protected here, there’s no data mining or leaks and we still have freedom of speech.
Well said Dahyna-Antoinette, and welcome to our community! Many of us here you'll find very warm, welcoming and supportive ❤️
Thank you Birgitte! 😊 I’m excited to be here. A friend introduced me to the platform, and I’m happy to have published my first post yesterday. Looking forward to growing and connecting with others on here.

Thank you, Dahyna. I am comforted in knowing that she is resting exactly where she wanted to be. My mother owned a home in the foothills of Negril and I went there many years ago before I had children. Where on the island do you live?
That’s lovely. Happy to know that you visited as well. Hopefully one day you can revisit and bring your children with you... I live in Montego Bay.

You should assume that all social media platforms allow for data mining/leaks, or actively engage in it.
You’re probably right. It’s usually a part of market research these days, which makes it easier for them to reach their marketing & sales targets. And I’ll assume there’s more to it...

The personal is political, right? Dissent is patriotic. Both are true, IMO. I enjoy reading political and legal analysis (Jay Kuo and Joyce Vance are two whose newsletters I enjoy). BUT, I can’t stress enough how UTTERLY UNINTERESTED I would be in starting to see politicians posting in Notes. I can choose to avoid their newsletters; but turning a writers/readers safe space into a forum for people skilled at saying a whole lot of nothing would dilute the whole experience.
It would be like reading a short-form political memoir. Hard pass.
Absolutely. I loved Obama, but even his books put me to sleep.
My congressional district was redrawn last year and the seat was flipped by a moderate Republican. Knowing he had to straddle the line, I signed up for his emails to give him a chance to show me what he’s made of. SNOOZE FEST. And the guy tries to get a shit ton of mileage out of sucking off veterans that it makes me sick. Vets are important to recognize - heck, I’m married to one. But when all your in-district visits and newsletter content is about one population, it’s really alienating. I think he thinks loving vets is a bipartisan approach, but he’s becoming a one-trick pony. I digress...I don’t want any of this to happen in Notes.
Love the vets until it’s time to give them accessible mental health support or doing anything to end their homelessness problem... 😑
The number of people talking about Zionism, conspiracy theories, etc, in this thread is somewhat troubling...
Yes, getting that increasingly in recent weeks.
There are also lots of insane AIPAC/Zionist trolls on substack, such as comments on Bari Weiss' articles.

AIPAC (ultra zionist lunatics) corruption, documented.
excerpt:
“One of AIPAC’s biggest donors offered $20m if I dropped out of the U.S. Senate race to run against [Tlaib]. I said no. I won’t be bossed, bullied, or bought.”
The offer was reportedly made by Michigan businessman Linden Nelson in October, according to Politico, and the money would have come in the form of $10 million in bundled contributions to Harper’s campaign and $10 million in independent expenditures on his behalf.
It’s unclear how large of a donor Nelson is to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.

JD Haltigan: The Emotional Dysregulation Behind Progressive Authoritarianism
The vulnerable narcissism of the Radical Left
Reporting on humanity, civilization, and the environment
Episode details
We’ve all experienced it. You get in an argument with someone who knows little about the subject they’re talking about, but who is absolutely confident they’re right. Maybe it’s police violence, maybe it’s climate change, or school closures during the pandemic. They’re reciting tired progressive talking points that have been debunked a dozen times over. You’re presenting them with counterarguments that are hardly original, but your interlocutor seems to have never considered them before. Pretty soon they’re backed into a corner.
So they pull out the card you knew was coming from the very beginning: “Oh, so you’re just content to let them die???”
The argument has now pivoted from a dispute over facts and reason to an unwinnable contest over who has the purer heart. And the assumption is, quite clearly, that you’re the monster for having your awful opinions. You can keep arguing if you want, but at this point there’s no more persuasion to be had, if there ever was any. You’ve been condemned for your thought crimes and there’s no appeals process. The person you just wasted ten minutes arguing with will walk away with their position utterly unchanged, but their opinion of you diminished. According to terms you never agreed to, you’ve lost the debate.

excerpt:
Neuropsych — February 15, 2019
Why radicals can’t recognize when they’re wrong
Key Takeaways
Not only does everyone have personal experience with how difficult it can be to change people's minds, but there's also empirical research showing why this is the case. A new study in Current Biology explains why some people seem to be constitutionally incapable of admitting they're wrong. The study shows the underlying mechanism behind being bull-headed, and there may be some ways to get better at recognizing when you're wrong.
...
cont. excerpts
New research published in Current Biology on December 18, 2018, confirms this feeling: people with radical beliefs actually think differently than those without. Specifically, radicals have less metacognitive sensitivity than moderates.
Metacognition refers to the ability to be aware of and analyze one’s own thinking. Metacognitive sensitivity is similar, but more specific: it refers to the ability to distinguish between one’s correct and incorrect judgements. The new paper, titled “Metacognitive Failure as a Feature of Holding Radical Beliefs,” shows that radicals have measurably less metacognitive sensitivity than moderates.

The "woke" "left" is a magnet for mental dysfunction and toxic group think.
I am not sure about this. As an occasional poliitcal writer, and just-retired academic "of color", I worry that the businness model will, unintentionally to be sure, favor the favorites of the likes and dislikes, in effect marginalizing voices with less politcal power and "visibilty."
I'll give two examples who I did not see mentioned, both great writers, who are stars on Substack: Kareem-Abdul Jabbar and Erik Hoel. The former enjoys world-class status who brings a unique perspective as a Black activist athlete with a keen crap detector, the other, a white former academic reuroscience researcher who, while not overtly politcal--and I susoect quite non-partisan-- has gained street creds with his deep understandings of the science of "consciousness," the pitfalls, both societal and cultural, of AI, as well as the undernining of the public square on social media.
substack executives have sent a few signals that they will ignore the "woke" crazies on the "left", but they skirted around the issue by claiming that they only want to make money, not take sides.
substack executives claim to offer the ability to block tr0lls, but the substack block function only fully works in Notes, and there is no capability for subscribing to crowd sourced block lists.

I agree about the importance of political discourse that’s not fueled by incendiary algorithms, but for me, Substack is the place to get away from all that and enjoy writing that touches on the deeper and more meaningful aspects of the human experience.
Didn't Hamish McKenzie promote that famously detestable racist as seeking "enlightened centrism"? Real hard to trust the political utility of a platform whose contours are shaped by a mind that regards that as even remotely reasonable.
Didn't you write a vaguely stupid post trotting out defanged words like "racist?" Real hard to trust the comments of a poster who's contours are shaped by whatever shitlib mainstream crap he butt chugged this week.

https://unorthodoxy.substack.com/p/why-we-need-to-stop-voting-in-presidential
If the voting is as prescribed in our constitution and states do not gerrymander or make voting physically more difficult, then however the way a voter makes their decision is a private matter.
partisan "rigging" via censorship and propaganda is one of the main ways that elections are corrupted. democrats have always been good at it:

re: Chandra Hardy is a typically INCOMPETENT "woke" culture wars g00n.
Anthropology note:
Human war is old as dirt, and has little or nothing to do with "race".
Humans that were self-domesticating (where INHIBITION was present because of evolved brain structure for it) for greater social cooperation and altruism within their kindship group (gene pool) were more hostile to outsiders because hostility to outsiders enhanced internal group cooperation. They were nice to each other because they were nasty to outsiders (Bowles, see the below reference).
Assuming that evolutionary theory is correct about the African origins of modern humans (Homo Sapiens), then ALL WAR CAN BE BLAMED ON AFRICANS since all modern humans of whatever "race" are descended from african ancestors, and those ancestors "invented" war.
(See Samuel Bowles 2008 Ulam Lectures, Santa Fe Institute on "Why Humans are Both Nasty and Nice".)
Here is how Darwin put it:
Peter Richerson, PhD ecology, UC Davis, quotes Darwin (as an example of group selection hypothesis and the neurobiology of sympathy in "primeval times"):
"It must not be forgotten that although a high standard of morality gives but a slight or no advantage to each individual man and his children over other men of the same tribe, yet that an increase in the number of well-endowed men and an advancement in the standard of morality will certainly give an immense advantage to one tribe over another. A tribe including many members who, from possessing in a high degree the spirit of patriotism, fidelity, obedience, courage, and sympathy, were always ready to aid one another, and to sacrifice themselves for the common good, would be victorious over most other tribes, and this would be natural selection (178-179)."
WoW! Really, Zionist NAZIs? Isn't that an oxymoron used by antisemitic racist.?

I could not be more grateful to be writing on a platform that allows for thoughtful political discourse! We need all the ideas on the table, not just the ones on one side or another.
As a retired police officer and former candidate for US Senator in Nevada, I question ( no offense intended), the hiring of a writer whose background rest solely with 2 heavily-biased Liberal media outlets. I would fear that Substack would become another Democratic-leaning entity. I would prefer a candidate with a more neutral background.

Retired police officer? Did you ever shoot a young pregnant Black woman dead in her car for stealing? It started with the slave patrols and modern law enforcement grew out of that. You were the ones that looked the other way and let the white mobs in to steal the Black people who hadn't yet received a fair trial so that they could be hung on trees. And why should we trust you again?
THANK YOU FOR PROVING MY POINT, TR0LL.
PROJECTION. GASLIGHTING. LIES. DEFLECTIONS. DISTORTIONS.
The "woke" "left" is a magnet for mental dysfunction and toxic group think.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING ***RIGHT*** ***NOW*** TO STOP ALBINO CANNIBALISM IN TANZANIA?????????????????
What in the absolute fuck is wrong with you, you fascist piece of shit
Dr. Musa al-Gharbi would be an excellent choice. Black, heterodox/liberal sociologist whose upcoming book explains how "woke" has become a tool of corrupt globalists that want to reduce the working classes to Neo-Feudalism.
Or John Mcwhorter and Glen Loury.
Or Taibbi & Co.
The main need is for people that are heterodox and that understand that the legacy "left-vs-right" narrative is outmoded and dysfunctional.
And by "globalists," he means "Jews." It's all code words. Blame the Jews for everything.

Your mental dysfunctions make it impossible for you to be coherent, or to rationally, systematically and objectively process facts and evidence that contradict your bizarre confirmation biases and weird subjective-emotive narratives.

Censored Al Jazeera documentary exposing the Israel lobby in the U.S. (part 1 of 4). The documentary was never broadcast by Al Jazeera due to pressure from some Jewish groups and individuals. It was eventually leaked to a few groups, which posted some short clips. On November 2nd the first two parts finally became available to the public.
