While many journalists still make themselves the story - *The Chinese media was allowed to cover Xi’s visit but we weren’t and we are so butt-hurt *- I implore Americans to focus on the bigger picture: FASCIST BILLIONAIRES ARE CONSOLIDATING ALL INFORMATION. THEY ALREADY CONTROL MUCH OF OUR ACCESS BUT THEY WANT TO OWN IT ALL.
This consolidation includes the following:
**Journalism and the news media **
Conservative billionaires captured local and regional television, radio, and newspapers through groups like Sinclair. During this regime, they have moved on to legacy outlets like CBS and CNN, while the regime brings lawsuits against outlets it doesn’t like, threatens to pull licenses, and paves the way for fascist billionaires to put more legacy journalism under their control.
Entertainment
The Paramount/Skydance merger put a massive catalog of entertainment under fascist billionaire control. Now the Ellisons are further trying to expand that power by acquiring Warner Brothers. While everyone else focused on how this would impact CBS and CNN, I have been more concerned about * how it will change our access to movies and streaming shows we already own in the cloud, as well as the films and shows that get made in the future. *Additionally, Jeff Bezos owns MGM as part of Amazon. This represents a huge chunk of our entertainment.
Remember, White Christian Nationalists (and leaders of Muslim countries governed by Sharia law) believe a vast swath of Hollywood entertainment is filth, perversion, and pornography. Don’t think for a second that fascist consolidations won’t lead to disappearing films and shows that offend them, as well as altering existing and future shows and movies to conform to their worldview.
**I know. I KNOW. People are already saying **this woman is nuts.
*Paramount let South Park - I mean South America - keep making fun of everything. They’ll never go that far. *Fascists move against enemies strategically. They are using a show like South Park - and raking in billions - as cover to destroy less profitable and/or more relatable creators.
Online information
This includes everything touched by an algorithm.
I have written about how Substack has been throttling my work since March 2025. I produce the same information, but my platform reach went from over six figures every 90 days to a little over 12,000 presently.
The algorithm has also been tailored to reach people who aren’t inclined to upgrade to paid. This has impacted my revenue, which relies on finding new subscribers. When Substack was showing my work to six figures of new people every 90 days, 1% or so chose to become paid subscribers. It wouldn’t make me rich, but that wasn’t the point. I could make a living doing this work. On the present trajectory, small creators like me will eventually decide the stress, danger, and risk aren’t worth it, because why do this if nobody even sees our work? Billionaire overlords like Marc Andreessen - who owns a good chunk of Substack - are counting on this.
Which is a good time to say I can’t do this work without you. If you can afford to, please click the button below and Upgrade to Paid.

And this isn’t just Substack.
A new tranche of paid subscribers tell me they aren’t receiving my emails, even in their spam folders. AND THEY PAID TO RECEIVE THESE EMAILS.
But fascist companies like Google don’t care. It’s nothing for them to set up an algorithm to prevent progressive information from reaching Gmail users. They don’t have to tell anyone, and they count on users never noticing. Which is why I want to tear my hair and scream at the number of subscribers who still have Gmail addresses.
Meta has been censoring all manner of progressive information since before the 2024 election. They censored my Project 2025 work on Instagram and Facebook. They have been removing posts and ads about abortion pills, menstrual products, and sex education for girls in multiple countries. Now they are refusing to allow ads in Europe that cover topics like *civil rights *and feminism.
Not to mention the Ellisons and their control of TikTok and Elon Musk’s Nazi takeover of Twitter. Bot farms. AI slop. Information designed to distract, create outrage, and cause people to disengage or give up.
This is also happening on the left with groups like Chorus, which pay many purple and orange check-markers on Substack to peddle corporate Democratic talking points. Creators DO NOT DISCLOSE this relationship, but look at the high-profile accounts that always talk to each other. You’ll get an idea of who’s on that payroll.
Books, publishing and libraries
Libraries are teetering under the weight of budget cuts and culture wars. BY FASCIST DESIGN. Libraries are one of the last places we can go to check out free books, read newspapers, and get online. Destroying libraries would make their catalogs of accumulated information inaccessible and make fascist billionaires and the regime the only remaining legal portal.
Book publishing has been complicit in the destruction of information for decades. See my recent rant about ’s book. It is obscene that leaders, journalists, and others see things happening right in front of them, and they hold that information back for months or years to get a book deal and reveal it eons too late. Publishers make bank; the authors look heroic; and Americans are screwed.
Music
We saw what happened recently with the Ed Sheeran/Macklemore story. Too many Americans were quick to parrot the fascist billionaire talking point: Well, Bob Kraft owns the venue, so he ought to be able to control what gets said there.
Which obscured the fact that every other fascist NFL owner prohibited Macklemore from performing in stadiums that were taxpayer-owned, AND all of it violated the First Amendment.
This episode is a template, Americans. Because if we buy the lie that fascist billionaires should be able to control speech and expression in spaces they own, and they own everything, then we have no free speech and expression.
Gaming and apps
Online gaming and gambling are big moneymakers for fascist billionaires. But once they’ve pillaged everything they can from those users, they can censor and use those addictive platforms to peddle whatever they want. Both spaces have been portals to isolate, break, and radicalize men. Expect this trend to continue.
Fascist billionaires have also complied with regime demands to remove ICE-tracking apps and have changed long-established place names. What other, lesser profile information do you think they’re changing while journalists are crying about being ejected from the White House?
Museums, arts, and culture
Museums, theaters, arts programs, and more have already seen drastic cuts to funding. Ultimately, fascist billionaires could control what art gets made, what plays are written, and what culture is seen.
Seriously. If your area has a symphony, a small art museum, an artist community, an indie music scene, public parks, library events, galleries, amateur sports, and more, SUPPORT THOSE SPACES in lieu of corporate, possibly fascist- billionaire-owned creations.
It’s so much more than journalists being barred from the White House.
We are already so far into this fascist takeover of information that dismantling it will be exhausting and costly, but WE MUST FORCE ELECTED DEMOCRATS TO DO THIS AGGRESSIVELY IN EARLY 2027. Eject Elon Musk and Peter Thiel’s Palantir from the government gravy train. Break up information and entertainment monopolies. Bust and regulate Big Tech. Make it impossible for the regime to enforce NSPM-7.
