As some of you know, in January 2023 I had to let go of full-time publishing and return to factory work. The July 2022 PayPal sanctions for having the wrong politics on COVID had made my old site at Anti-Empire.com unviable, and my “substack offensive” of the second half of 2022 came up short.

After months of writing, numerous updates, and my best efforts to drum up backing, my paid Substack subscribers numbered 16 (thank you) out of 3000 total subs, while I had run out of savings that had supported my writing. Thus the factory could no longer be staved off.

This leaves Anti-Empire with far fewer updates and less ground covered than before. There is so much more that could be said in depth and width, but I just don’t have the time.

If you would like to have Anti-Empire more active, sign up as a paid subscriber if you can. I will return to full-time writing for AE should reader support ever return, hitting 100 paid subscribers.

Currently, the backing stands at 25 paid subscribers (up from 8 when I first made this appeal, thank you!).

If you do not wish to be tied down to a monthly subscription payment you can also make a one-time donation:
