Love the column, especially the way that you present unassailable facts that refute the BS pouring out of the MSM. The climate change data is especially compelling. Thank you!
Your message was so Forward Thinking …even if it’s now in the rear view mirror.
I am sensing, though through the lens of being a big SUBSTACK supporter/sponsor, that the tide has actually turned.
With MSM having been outed in a most conspicuous and compromising way, I think and believe that it is nearing the time to leave the narrative of MSM in the dust bin of history and forge on with the SUBSTACK ethos and substance.
Though in the context of the number of humans on our Earth, the number of Substackers is tiny, the potential impact at scale is a magnificent possibility.
Sometimes strolling down memory lane is like walking on shards of glass. Thanks to people like you, Joel, my feet are tougher than formerly. I think I may be developing wings.
As brilliant as we are, are we bright enough to reclaim the 4th estate? Without a trusted go-to location for unbiased and straight-up truth-be-told, We minions will be responsible for ferreting out and believing what we discover on our own to be true and fact; a difficult, if not impossible, task. This fight has just begun and needs continued nurturing and leadership ( a paradox ). We, proles, have been lied to, propagandized, used, and abused by elites since the beginning of time, with most, if not all, truth insisters being eliminated. How do we ensure absolute truth and facts as an additional inalienable right while we are so busy making a living? Do we trust our elected officials???? So, as it took 250 years for the US to get to this level of failure, we must learn from this and change our constitution and the laws that protect us from lying, abusive elitists in every facet of our society. The point at which we are now is the best it can be, but it needs so much more work. Does anybody have any ideas on how to do this? ( remember, it begins with what and how our children are taught and how they are nurtured.)
My way to solve part of the problem would be to love thy neighbor. If I could define love it would be this way "putting Him Or her first. " That is My second rule the first causes to much controversy. I do not need any more .
Great article by Mark Ford today on why Trump won and the lying media. An excellent read on politics and the media, almost as enjoyable as Joel's ha ha!

Thanks to All for your focus/belief/tenacity!
Let’s make 2025 one for the record books!
But still, I was horrified to see that 32% of people still respect - a lot (!) or somewhat (!) - the corporate/mainstream media! Still!
I don't get out much any more and so, I guess, my view is distorted (damn! 'scewed' sp?).

Good reporting. Eyes that need to be opened are beginning to open.

"Why Trump Won and What It Means for Everyone"
Good read!
Great spotlight!!
It's becoming harder and harder to be a low information individual, but the schools are doing their damnedest.
The article about doing your own research is astonishing. I’m glad I missed that one. Thanks for the history lesson Joel.
