I agree. Even the legacy newspapers are looking tired these days. Parents who protested on the street in Ireland as yet another person is murdered by a deranged religious extremist (Muslim islamist) are described as 'far right'. The legacy media as well as our legacy political parties need to be anhilated. I'm not sure we can change it fast enough, I'm feeling terribly low about it all.
100% agree with this Dominic. Worth noting that Substack’s continued commitment to free speech and diversity of thought are very much the cornerstone of its success in attracting so many disparate and fascinating voices. Substack is a resource we need to support and defend. Happy New Year and wishing you continued success in 2024!
I agree. The free speech free thought thing is a huge building block. As a result ideas are advancing so fast. It's leaving every other media in its wake.
Happy New Year Dominic. Concise Substacks that get to the point (eg 500 words max) blossom but the 1000 word+ stacks wither. Will you be running an idiots guide to safe crypto investing?
Your point is noted. The problem is you really get into it and suddenly it's 1,500 words, but you know you would have got three times as many views if it was 500!

It's nuts. They are too inhibited to say what they think. And they are dying.
