The Substack Infiltration Nobody Is Talking About

The Substack Infiltration Nobody Is Talking About A warning about bots, fake accounts, paid rage-bait, and the coordinated effort to fracture the pro-democracy movement from within. Lev Parnas Jun 1 ∙ The Substack Infiltration Nobody Is Talking About There are moments when you can feel something shift. Not because one person attacks you. Not because one post goes viral. Not because a few trolls show up in the comments. But because the pattern becomes impossible to ignore. Over the past several months, through extensive sourcing, direct information coming to my attention, and patterns we have been carefully tracking, I believe something much bigger is happening here on Substack. And almost nobody is reporting on it. This platform — the place so many of us came to because we were tired of corporate media, tired of cable news spin, tired of algorithm-driven propaganda — is being targeted. Not just by ordinary trolls. Not just by people who disagree politically. I’m talking about something...

THE WORLD IS WATCHING &  RECOGNIZES TRUMP'S SUPPORT FOR GENOCIDE!  HISTORY WILL REVEAL THE SEVERE PRICE THAT ISRAEL & ITS SUPPORTERS  WILL PAY! At least 174 Children Killed in a Single Day in Gaza in  Palestine    by  Countercurrents Collective     19/03/2025 At least 174 Palestinian children in Gaza have been killed in Israeli airstrikes since Tuesday morning, marking one of the “largest one-day death tolls since the beginning of the genocide.” More than 400 Palestinian civilians have been killed, the majority of whom are children, and over 560 others injured in Israeli attacks across the Gaza Strip as Israel continues attacking the enclave since the early hours of Tuesday. Israel has resumed its genocidal war in Gaza after nearly two months of a fragile ceasefire. According to the Palestinian Health Ministry, over 174 children are among the victims. UNICEF has condemned Israel’s latest attacks on Gaza, which killed more than 174 chi...

  Report Details Big Oil Lobby's Relentless Opposition to a Green Transition Climate campaigners said the "brilliant and disturbing" publication "shows the crucial need for increased awareness of the delaying tactics of fossil fuel companies." Echoing years of  academic ,  congressional , and  journalistic  research, a U.K.-based think tank on Thursday released a  report  detailing how top fossil fuel industry trade groups have "used a playbook of narratives and arguments to systematically oppose, weaken, and delay the transition to renewables and electric vehicles (EVs) since at least 1967." The new InfluenceMap analysis focuses on the American Petroleum Institute (API), FuelsEurope, and Fuels Industry U.K.—whose spokespeople  responded  to the report by insisting to  SustainableViews  that the oil and gas industry is playing an "essential" role in the transition and it is necessary to harness "vast energy resources, from oil and n...

Hang on, Republicans: Who are the real "elites," anyway?

Ted Cruz, R-Texas (R) and Josh Hawley, R-Mo., are seen outside the Senate chamber on Tuesday, May 3, 2022. Tom Williams/CQ-Roll Call, Inc via Getty Images Bestselling author Malcolm Gladwell recently posted some thoughts on the subject of high school sports, of all things. High schools do a good job at elevating elite athletes, he wrote, to the detriment of students of more average ability, or who lack parents who could afford to pay for soccer or baseball camps starting at age six. Gladwell, who is a lifelong, serious runner — and can run a mile at age 55 nearly as fast as I did when I was 15 and winning races on the track team — came up with a law he named after himself: In any sporting endeavor, elite achievement comes at the cost of mass participation. We can easily expand Gladwell's Law to the whole of soc...
