Breaking: I just discovered a massive wrinkle in the Substack space-time continuumThis changes everything
It was showing up in my own basement. That’s where I keep my storage Cloud and a host of devices that monitor incoming threats and turn them back. The basement is quite large. My friend, L, manages the whole array. The other day he called me down there to inspect what we’re now labeling THE PURPLE WALL. A whole section of the wall next to the exit door, which previously contained a funnel that collected potential defamation lawsuits and analyzed them—that section of wall is now a deep purple, and the funnel is gone. The wall hasn’t just changed color; it seethes and froths. Like a small ocean. L pointed this out and suggested I stick my hand INTO the wall. “Why don’t you stick your hand in?” I said. “Because I’m working the technical side of your operation,” he said. “You’re the crazy one.” True. But I wasn’t that crazy. I picked up a large shovel, took a deep breath, and shoved it into the wall. Nothing happened. But when I brought the shovel out, it was piled with sheets of paper. There was printing on the paper. Upstairs, we began reading ARTICLES—previously unknown SUBSTACK ARTICLES. I have to be careful here. If I name names, lawsuits are sure to follow. SOMETHING (I know not what) is taking articles written by political Substack writers and political candidates who have Substack accounts…and this SOMETHING is rewriting them. As…CONFESSIONS. Falsity and pretension are being turned into truth. That’s a heavy thing to say; but there it is. Fueled by Bushmills, L and I read for hours. Here’s a choice bit for your consideration. A candidate now running for the highest office in the land posted, last month, the following promise: “I’ll cut down the size of the federal government colossus by 75%.” But now, THIS statement appeared instead: “I want to reduce the federal government by 75%, but actually I have no friggin’ idea how to achieve this. Not a clue. Do I summarily fire hundreds of thousands of employees? How would I make that stick? How would I fend off the lawsuits and restraining orders?” Time and time again, we found these translations. A political writer who has a gargantuan following on Substack wrote, two months ago: “The Democrats, making their case for Election 2024—as well as many Republicans—are facing a host of issues on which the American public wants better answers. Inflation, immigration, climate policies, budgetary priorities.” This statement now reads: “It’s the election season, which means everybody and his brother are making campaign promises. It’s all rainbows and marshmallows. Actually, these dumb doofuses have no idea how they would implement their schemes, once in office. They’re pandering to the mob right now. They’re bullshitting you, dear reader, and they know it. Every day, on these pages, I lull you to sleep with MY cotton candy New York Times type prose, and I’m conning you, too. I’m an agent of the status quo. I’m dishing shit for the Corporate State. Because I know that’s what you want. You want GENTLE. You want NICE. You want SENSIBLE. Of course, these three minions of decay will get you absolutely nowhere. They’re just pretensions. You’re supposed to think you’re smart when you read my prose. You’re supposed to think you’re being informed. As opposed to LULLED. I’m a trickster. That’s my profession. I talk normal to normal people. I give you a few ‘inside scoops’. I don’t attack Biden all the way and I don’t defend him all the way, either. I’m the MIDDLE PERSON. I’m balanced. But this is all crapola. The federal government keeps getting bigger, no matter what. I’m here to keep you away from this cardinal fact. I’m here to seduce you with ‘other issues’. I’ve found a style of writing that sounds like journalism. And you eat it up, because you deal in IMPRESSIONS…” See what I mean? There is some operation going on below the surface of Substack that functions like a confession. It exposes itself. It’s as if an alternative universe has impinged on this one. THE PURPLE WALL...
