Independent-minded journalists such as Glenn Greenwald, Michael Tracey, and Bari Weiss, among thousands of others, have migrated from corporate-controlled media to Substack.com, where they support themselves via the subscription payments of their readers. It's become the go-to platform for journalism's heterodoxy.

You know who hates not having their news curated, right? Liberals. It's too much work for their lazy asses to A. find, and B. even consider unique and thought-provoking ideas which challenge the norms they've been told to accept. Instead, they want their social media and MSM overlords to dictate to them what and how to think, so this Substack thing has become a serious concern as it's journalists have gained in popularity.

What to do about it? Well, of course, you gather your Twitter rage posse and pile on AWS and Jeff Bezos for hosting them, you publicly defame its leadership as racism supporters, you "cancel" the DNS hosting provider, and then you find their subscribers by way of the comments sections of stories and you publicly cancel them too.

The reckoning is coming.
