Do you care to be brave?
A few days ago, Substack introduced the option of live chat with authors. As I can hardly keep up with answering comments, I am opting out, with the exception of my paying subscribers (besides a copy of my book from 2012, guaranteed response to e-mail is the only bonus they receive, while everything on my site is fully accessible for anyone; I’m not even pestering my readers with begging to get paid, because that would interrupt their reading).
I’m not sure if it affects only authors, but since the new feature was introduced, the site’s response time has been dragging down to a halt.
As a cognitive scientist, I can recognize the way a keylogger acts on the screen, but this time, obviously every keystroke and every action is recorded.
Just figured you wanted to know.
In order to participate in settings such as these, I am limited to using a cellphone or the library computer.
Since the latest update to the system was made on this phone, which I allowed 9 days ago, everything I do from the phone is now much slower. EVERYTHING.
Not only that, but the pressure that builds in my head when I now use the phone is vastly more immediate and noticeable, though I am very sensitive.
A new 5G tower, approximately. 30 miles away from me, was completed about the same time as the update to the system was made, and I will only be assuming the worst (with zero proof, and only the usual evidence) when I say that it is no coincidence that these things are occurring simultaneously.
I am reluctant to get rid of the infernal device, because it is my only practical means of communication, next to the written letter, which has become less reliable since covid, and though not many would even miss my absence, I am still not really happy to be forced to get rid of the phone, even though I see the writing on the wall, with our ability to use these devices becoming either very limited, or even obsolete, due to the infrastructure de-platforming on demand, like with this Twitter bs, and who knows what else is in store?...
It seems to me that the censoring machine is running full throttle.
My texts and emails are obviously being tampered with, and many of my calls are evidently being monitored, with the odd feedback present on those heated calls in which I speak openly about The Situation Here...
So, it only seems "reasonable" that the powers behind it all should be doing everything in their power to be destroying their enemies, which are now becoming more and more obvious to both sides, as it really does boil down to are you Good, or are you Bad?
I refuse to live in fear, and am willing to go forth, knowing that my adversaries will likely do their best to see me fall; yet, "they" must know, as well, that my cronies and I are on the side of truth, and are not going to go down without a terrible war being waged on All Fronts, which is, essentially, what is in the works right now, regardless if one admits it or not.
A spiritual war, primarily, yet surely the war overflows into and onto all aspects of life, even if a one refuses to acknowledge the source-- The Spirit.
For anyone who used it...what is the difference between the comment section here and this new feature?
