I continue to be shocked at myself for subscribing to so many liberal writers on substack. Bari Weiss, Matt Taibbi, Glen Greenwald, and now Alex. It’s because the truth of the matter is that classic liberals have much in common with conservatives. We want freedom of thought and expression without intervention from the government and Big Tech. We want to hear all points of view so we can make an informed decision. The mainstream only wants to express the allowable point of view. We all need to fight back and support anyone who is brave enough to go outside the mainstream and do the hard work. Thanks Alex.
the tenets of liberalism like a belief in capitalism and free speech have more in common with conservatism than with the identity politics and racial resentment preached by the left.
You've got that completely backwards. Liberals now, i.e the Dems are the very ones the MSM utilize to spread dis-information, are the very ones suppressing dissenting opinions & voices. They have not embodied the true definition of the word liberal in decades. Neo-liberals, all of them. You have much, much more in common with leftists, who see the Dems as the dangerous party they are, and i hope you take an open minded look to see the trurh
I love that, absolutely we must get the liberals back that are objective journalists, we need prospectives from all angles! Conservatives and liberals must unite again and protect each other! It's the government and the elites that are dividing us and we need to be more careful and be more aware of that so we can look past that, that's where we get our power!!
Alex - Stay in the fight, you are fantastic! You are my go-to expert on all things Covid-19 related as I really want the unvarnished truth which you provide. Have bought your books. Just caught you on Tucker and I have quickly subscribed! I spent nearly 32 years on active duty in the Navy (U.S. one) rising from the lowest enlisted ranks to retire as a CAPT/06. I am an excellent judge of human character (lots of experience from my naval service) and you, Sir, are among the top few on my list! We are with you!
I cannot yet understand how members of the press, and or people who call themselves liberal can embrace "groupthink" and "censorship" as virtues. If Trump were doing this, these same people would be on the street screaming "bloody murder".
Matt Taibbi's book Hate, Inc. covers this well. Basically, journalism went from a working class occupation a generation ago to an elite, "prestige" occupation for those who wish to be mouthpieces for the powerful. They don't speak truth to power anymore because they ARE the power.
Fauci is a vain, vindictive, petty, autocratic bureaucrat. Fauci does not believe in science. Fauci believes in blind and unquestionable obedience to unelected technocrats.
I am not surprised - the red headed girl basically said they were working to censor on FB and it was only a matter of time considering how these companies work in concert. I hope you have alternative platforms to use for now - yes, I know many people say fight but how if they block you? Unless you plan to join one of the lawsuits against censorship.
(One of the main reasons I use locals - I can join the communities of creators I like and know they won’t get banned for going against the narrative - substack is okay but lacks that community feel).
Thank you Alex for keeping me sane the last 18 months. Journalism degree '90, sick of what's happening to the profession. My professors are turning in their graves. I will follow ETHICAL reporting like a moth to the light. Like others I bought an annual sub just now. I deleted any social media presence months ago. Newspaper sub too. Twitter is easy to use w/o sub, just bookmark the accounts you like to follow instead. At least until they are removed for being "disinformation" providers.

theres a lot of other platforms competing, but unfortunately they have spread everyone thin. I wish parlor, substack, gettr, rumble, odysee etc had easier cross participation.. like easily find ppl across all those alternative platforms would make a huge boost

Liberals and conservatives want freedom. Leftists do not.

Go get em, Alex...thanks for being the point of the spear for us.
Yes, Kathy, very well said
All of the writers you mentioned are leftists not "liberals".
Disgusting but not surprising. You're the main reason I use Twitter
Precisely.
Yeah. I think Alex is one of the last interesting voices.
Exactly!
I heard Alex on a call with our local House Rep in early April 2020. His Twitter feed has been my only source of information since then.

Just saw you on Carlson. Never heard of Substack. I have it now. Thank you.
I found Alex via Tucker too
Me too #metoo
Likewise.
Me too!

Thank you for taking the slings and arrows! Team Reality is here with you!
Keep speaking the truth Alex!!

You called it last night!
This is what big pharma receives for all their lobbying $$$. The power to shut down dissent. In a "free" country.

I agree. I think a couple of them could merge
Please don’t stop. What you are doing is so important. Don’t give in. Don’t give up. Thanks for your courage.
You are absolutely my favorite writer/commentator. You speak the truth so I’m not surprised they blocked you
