Dear Rav and anyone at substack who will listen. This substack model is doomed to failure. I can't support 20 writers who charge $5 or $7/mo. They need a revenue shading model like netflix. Netflix was able to support hundreds of writers and cinematographers and producers and directors and stuntmen and actors, on $9/mo. Yet somehow i am supposed to believe that $7/mo is appropriate for 1 or 2 journalists with extremely low production costs. Substack needs to introduce a model whereby you pay $X per month and you get access to a whole swath of writers and topics. Maybe there is a limit of 20 or something and they share it... or maybe like netflix, there is no limit. But i simply cannot pay $5 or $7/mo per writer when entire newspapers are supported by $1/mo. And i just can't afford it. Push for change.
This is a totally valid concern and I understand. I have thought about this a lot too. I will flag my friend Clyde at Substack and ask him what his thoughts are on this.
Thank you for saying what I've been thinking. I read dozens of substacks. There is no way I could afford to join all of them (and I get angry if I cannot comment with $$!). As a result I pay for none. I have sent cups of coffee to favoured writers, if they have that option available (something to consider @Rav Arora ) I would love to pay say, $7 / month for access to 5, or $10 a month for access to 10, etc.
The other doom on substack is I suspect they are corralling all of the "alternatives" here so that they can catch us in one fell swoop. Pray it isn't so.
Great work. Anecdotally, here in Australia, the stats must surely be similar. Every other week, friends, relatives, acquaintances tell me about people dying of cardiac/cardiovascular-related deaths & complaints. Certainly not guaranteed cause, but I've never heard of so many of these type of events in my lifetime..
@GeeCee - IKR? I have a log of "events" within 2 degrees of separation of me. 40 people, 5 deaths. And I can't - I can't - I CAN'T say a word, because the thing is done. It's not helpful to tell people, "Well, you focused your antibodies on COVID, and now you can't fight the cancers," (for example) or "Well, if you hadn't had the shot, you wouldn't need that stent (or varicose vein surgery or . . . )" It is just cruel to tell them that this was DONE TO THEM, they thought they were choosing well. It blows my mind at how oblivious the people are: "this just happens," "we're getting older," "life goes on" ARGH!
It's staggering how everyone will look away and find whatever ludicrous excuse they can come up with to explain these cardiac injuries. "Climate change" apparently causes heart failure now and also there's a new "study" in the BMJ now saying that it's artificial sweeteners (https://www.bmj.com/company/newsroom/possible-link-between-artificial-sweeteners-and-heart-disease/) - I mean, come on - open your eyes, people!
Doctors deny all these injuries and deaths are related to the shots. Of course they would react this way. After all they have been recommending them to everyone. Remember what they tell us in the drug commercials - “Always check with your doctor first before taking anything to make sure it’s right for you.” Have they become agents of a drug cartel for worse any other organized crime we’ve ever witnessed? The term ‘Health Care’ is a joke. It’s truly all about sick care. Much more profitable. Same goes for animals - I have not taken my two cats for their shots since we got them and they are far healthier than any we had before.
This has been true for decades in the psychiatric industry (and I'm suspicious of statins and PPI's too) - where - if you complain - you must be *more* mentally ill, so I'll give you more "treatments." Medical gaslighting - more women know about this than men, but now they are going for the men, too.
I’ve stopped taking all Pharma products. When I was going through a period of depression I took Paxil which did nothing except cause unpleasant side effects. I found an inexpensive herb (kratom) which provides a mood lift and that works fine for me. And it’s doesn’t mess me up when I don’t take it.
You are an “adult prodigy” and I applaud. Please gather with those of us like-minded, enlightened skeptics who stumbled their way into the truth. We are an elite sector. And we will remember.
Solid piece, thank you. Then there are the neurological injuries. I’m really sick with neuromuscular symptoms after 3 moderna shots. My symptoms are ALS - like but so far, that is not the diagnosis. All my doctors deny the possibility of a vaccine injury. Thank God they are treating me though.
So your first four month chart on heart attacks in Germany only goes through September 2021. This is late December 2022. What happened over the last 4 monthly results? The chart shows a big jump in May-Sept. 2021 but a much lower than average three periods before that. Without knowing what happened Oct-Dec. 2021 and Jan. April 2022 we don't know if this is just an aberration and the numbers just coming back to average. Drawing conclusions from this chart with this missing data is not good.
Even if returns to the average rate - which it might since vaccines were most widely administered at the prior period (May - Sept) - why did they spike so precipitously in summer of 2021? Given the totality of evidence from Israel and France, it’s highly likely vaccines played a major role in it. But I take your point, further data points will illuminate the picture. I dug out this chart with some difficulty - let me see if I can find latest data.
I’ll forward your article on to my 65 year old brother who coincidently now has myocarditis after taking the “vaccines”. Thank you for your research!

Agree, for someone so young, he's a good writer!

update: i have been diagnosed with als
Nice writing, young Rav! I usually read older writers, but you have excellent clarity, expression, and communication of your concerns. Thanks!
The medical industrial complex is loaded with psychopaths AT THE TOP.
Thank you for putting your neck . I am proud of you.

Thanks Ray, I think that further data will help tell what might be going on.
