Ted Gioia here on Substack writes about a bourgeoning ‘microculture.’ He writes that eventually it (indie media) will completely overtake mainstream media publications like the New York Times and the Washington Post.

He writes:

“…indie journalism—operating on Substack, YouTube, Patreon, Medium, and other self-directed platforms—will increasingly shape the cultural dialogue, while legacy media struggles for survival.”

I don’t think he’s wrong. But, this IMO, is why Western governments all around the world have an absolute hard on to set up censoring quasi-governmental entities everywhere, before they lose the narrative completely.

Think about it.
