Today I discovered by accident that I was automatically unsubscribed from a bunch of Substacks that I had subscribed to recently, including yours. Not sure if it was a glitch, but I'm glad to be following your research and anti-censorship work again. Thanks for writing this.

NATO тАУ an anti-white and anti-family institution . . .
After the apocalypse of 1945, a number of global organizations have been formed with the aim of maintaining and expanding totalitarian liberalism. One of the earliest organizations formed for this purpose was the war alliance "North Atlantic Treaty Organization", or NATO, which can be seen as the military wing of globalism.
In addition to ensuring that Washington always has international support for its military campaigns, NATO as an institution is explicitly anti-white and explicitly dedicated to "racial justice" for racial aliens living in white countries. As early as 1999, NATO authored reports blaming nationalists for a number of modern problems and warning against the influence of nationalism.
In 2023, the war alliance held a summit at its headquarters in Brussels on race where the alliance's leaders pledged to fight "homogeneous attitudes" and to use NATO's "collective intelligence" for the purpose.
In fact, NATO is so dedicated to its anti-white agenda that it openly advocates that institutions must be reshaped to be "inclusive," in other words, restructured to be more anti-white, and consist of fewer white employees and executives.
By the way, shining a spotlight on these comments is good practice for arguing against them. Further, I'm not the only one who thinks this, as I shared here:
This guy just started spamming me again, on my blog this time -- I guess he followed the trail from this post over to my blog. I reported it to Substack (to complain that they "accidentally" classified me as spam but somehow this person gets to actually keep spamming without any repercussion). Doing so made his comment disappear. But after coming back here and reading your comment, you present a really valid point. You handled him better than me -- I appreciate your more rational, less reactive approach.
Oh, sorry to hear that Erin, but glad you found this helpful.
I agree with the platforms on one pointтАФ getting people together is hard! Sometimes people don't "behave" as everyone would like. But you have to be prepared for any behavior. That does not mean endless compassion. It means, don't keep removals and demotions secret from authors. Everything else is fair game in my opinion (provided you're not working with the government). Your house, your rules.
Reddit has a decent motto "remember the human." Reddit clearly does not follow this, but I like the phrase. A human exists somewhere on the other end of whatever comment appeared on your blog/Facebook/Reddit. It might be a bot, but bots are also coded by humans. If the bot's author reviews its interactions, then responding thoughtfully is worthwhile. If he doesn't and the bot persists, then you certainly don't need a shadow ban. Just ban it.
I didn't see any updates yet from Substack about your situation. I wonder if they would like a consultation on the issue, like a risk assessment. My guess is they're largely concerned about the potential harms of not using shadow moderation. But there are more harms, I think, from using it.
You're correct, Robert -- Substack hasn't provided any satisfactory explanations about my shadow ban other than saying my profile/blog was somehow erroneously misclassified as spam by their automated filters.
I remain skeptical about how that's possible, though, given our buddy Clarence and his ongoing blatantly antisemitic spam campaign that has continued to remain unchecked for months now, despite the platform's admitted awareness of his spamming activities.
Also, no one from Substack has been able to provide a logical explanation about why I was unsubscribed from some, but not all, of the publications I subscribed to at the time of my shadow ban. I was told by email that spam accounts are automatically unsubscribed from blogs. When I asked why I was only unsubscribed from some, but not all, of the free publications I subscribed to, I wasn't provided with an explanation. It's very weird.
I definitely think you offering Substack a consultation would be worth it, although I'm not sure how receptive the platform would be. They seem pretty confident in their current practices.
I also 100% agree with you that there is a difference between legitimate spam/harassment and good-faith conversations coming from opposing, and even sometimes controversial, perspectives. I also 100% agree that removals/demotions shouldn't be kept secret from users -- it's unethical and evades accountability when people are silenced in bad faith (the second part of Section 230 requires that the removal of user content by tech companies is done in good faith; bad faith removals are potential violations of the law, although that hasn't been tested in court ... yet).
So far, it looks like Substack staff accessed my account and just blocked him. Based on his still-visible comments on your posts, it looks like he's still out there spamming?
My main concern is this: his spam is full of hateful rhetoric that I worry could get scanned by Google, associated with my posts by their machines, and impact my blog's visibility on the internet as a whole. I just feel like there's more to this person's spam campaign than initially meets the eye.
Same thing happened to me. I was unsubscribed to blogs.
Substack is just like twitter .
But Substack specializes in catering to the " controlled opposition " narratives ( still fear) , they work on derailments of truth here at Substack . Its just a big AI platform where some blogs are even AI written and many comments also . Shadow posting etc all here while they talk about internet non censorship.
But its nice to find people that are not stuck in the grip of the narrative( and the controlled op narrative)which is essentially fear.
That's bonkers that it happened to you also! I'm able to see your profile, so you seem to be restored. May I ask how long it took to regain your visibility?
And I've come across a few blogs here that I'm almost certain are AI, too. I honestly still have a hard time trusting Substack after my experience. It's definitely a different kind of platform. Truly miss the days of paper and ink. :/
And I agree, I'm tired of the fear-based narratives and control cycles as well. I'm really hoping better days and brighter narratives are in our collective future!
I do not know how long it took I did not contact Substack about it
and It seems havent got my subscriptions back I have a second email where I have resubscribed to a couple.
Here's to better days where the fear narrative turns into a love dialog( a mono-log haha) and this can only happen in the current moment. Where we choose something new and yet something older than dirt, our very being . We were not created to teach fear . That is all the corporate media does amplify human unconsciousness - spread fear. We have humans stuck in the past media narrative or stuck imagining a virtual future made up by " AI" . Its the movent back to Reality=the here and now that we need.
That is so strange!! I wonder what the subscription removals are all about. Definitely not a great thing to have happen when writers are here to build a following under the assumption that they can make an income from their writing.
Was there a common thematic thread between any of the publications you were unsubscribed from, by any chance?
Huh, that's really weird. My unsubscriptions were a literal hodgepodge of pretty uncontroversial topics like wine and art, mixed in with international politics and independent journalists. It makes me nervous -- I'm wondering if it's a test of some sort of new detection technology that went awry, or if a rogue employee is doing it, or if it's something else that I'm not thinking of? It's just very bizarre and feels eerie.
I would not worry about it that is Sustacks purpose to make money in the market with a dubious numbers of subscriber(accounts) while censoring( which is a way to keep to the 2 fear narratives) and its just the state of things at the moment ...technology in the service of madness.
The "AI" they use on the internet (with its search engine monopoly) has probably been in play for 20 years

Thanks! I appreciate your support, and welcome back. That's odd that you were unsubscribed.
Another strange thing I just noticed is your profile says "Profile not found. We couldn't load this profile." https://i.imgur.com/k93rqUh.png
However, I am able to access your substack via a google search for your name.

Hi, your comments here sound more like a screed than a genuine interest in back-and-forth conversation.
If you're going to rant, do it in your own posts, not in comments.
I removed a few of your comments here. For those interested, they're still visible in this archive: https://archive.is/CaJgF
If you comment here in the future, please do a better job of connecting your points to the parent comment and show an interest to converse.
By the way, shining a spotlight on these comments is good practice for arguing against them. Further, I'm not the only one who thinks this, as I shared here:

In any event, my latest interactions with Clarence turned into a whole thing with Substack again on Notes: https://substack.com/@erinmariemiller/note/c-40085683?r=3ahc1&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=notes-share-action

Was there a common thematic thread between any of the publications you were unsubscribed from, by any chance?
The common thread was they were all exposing the psyop covid19, most debunking the 1861 Germ hypothesis .
But could well be that it was after a post called the Substack of Twitter .
But working around the bugs I just go back to the blogs( I resubscribed to a few) and they were free subscriptions.
