Elon Musk Goes to War Against Creators & Decentralisation By Censoring Substack on Twitter
And Other Radical Reactions
1) UK Child Sexual Exploitation Grooming Gangs Back in the News
At the top of this Newszine readers will find a short clip from last week’s WARRIOR CREED.
In the above clip - and as the first British-Pakistani broadcaster to raise the issue on the national airwaves in 2017, long before his cancellation- Maajid Nawaz provides his response to recent news of the British-Indian PM Rishi Sunak and the British Indian-origin Home Secretary Suella Braverman, both having recently resuscitated the issue of predominantly British-Pakistani child sexual exploitation street “grooming” gangs.

2) The Stale Smell of Musk
As we at Radical Media have been warning, Elon Musk has confirmed his hostile intentions towards both creator-controlled content and decentralisation.
As of now, Twitter is actively censoring all Substack links on its platform while blocking writers’ ability to embed tweets here.

In fact, from December last year we were pushing back on the idea that Elon Musk was some kind of saviour, much to the incredulity of many who were in what then passed for independent commentary online.
Radical Media reports 9th December 2022:
“But what has happened on Twitter over the last couple of weeks has only revealed Elon Musk’s hand. Even Musk may not yet realise just what he has revealed about himself.”
Indeed Musk has already displayed his hostile intent toward creator freedom and decentralisation.
Radical Media reports 29th December 2022:
“Not content with buying Twitter - which is the world’s most powerful communications weapon - after our interventions on Substack left him little choice but to facilitate the controlled exposition of the fact that it is indeed the world’s most powerful communications weapon..Elon Musk has now hinted at buying Substack…Readers will observe that - unlike twitter - there is nothing currently wrong with Substack. Indeed, Substack was one of the very few publishing platforms that remained sane and free during the Covid mandate tyranny. It served as a refuge for many voices, including this author, who were cancelled for questioning Covid hysteria. So if it ain’t broke, why fix it? Why indeed. Any serious move in this direction must be resisted.”
Now, insiders such Musk’s own anointed Twitter Files journalist Matt Taibbi have confirmed that Musk’s move was in reaction to Substack launching its own in-house twitter-like “Notes” feed. Taibbi promptly left twitter over this debacle. Musk himself has remained uncharacteristically quiet.
But the news has already started to paint a picture.
Mashable reports 7th april 2023:
Washington Examiner reports 7th April 2023:
And commentators are livid.

But as always, The Shadow knew.
Substack’s founders have responded:
“The Substack model is thriving. The proof is that the imitations are failing and the incumbents are resisting.
For example, today Twitter started blocking links to Substack. We hope this action was made in error and is only temporary. Writers deserve the freedom to share links to Substack or anywhere else. However, even if this change is not temporary, it is a reminder of why cracks are starting to show in the internet’s legacy business models. When it comes to any of the other large platforms, the rules are the same. If writers and creators don’t own their relationships with their audiences, they’re not in control.
This writer- and reader-first model represents the future of the internet. Any platform that benefits from writers’ and creators’ work but that doesn’t give them control over their relationships will inevitably wonder how to respond to the platforms that do.”
But in this timeline, things could get even more sinister:

3) Proposed International Health Regulation Amendments And Consolidating the Global Palace Coup
Andrew Bridgen MP (Ind.) - who was expelled from the British Conservative party after raising vaccine harms in Parliament - has now put a question to the House about the proposed amendments to the International Health Regulations.
Embedded video via youtube:
House Leader Penny Mourdant’s MP (Con) reply is worth reading for the sheer pricelessness of it:
“It is incredibly important that we have the facts of..whether it is such treaties, whether it is the facts about vaccines and so forth, out in the public domain. And I would just again caution the Honourable Gentleman who this week has been inviting us to join the dots, promoting that Anthony Fauci has created Covid in the United States and then off-shored that operation to Wuhan. And in the previous session prior to his business questions in Defra, is starting a new campaign to tell the public that this government and its international network of World Economic Forum stooges are encouraging everyone to eat insects. These are outrageous conspiracy theories that the Honourable Gentleman is promoting on his social media and, more frequently, on the floor of this House, and I would urge him to check his behaviour”
Is that a threat, Ms Mourdant?
4) Covid Shot: There May Be Trouble Ahead
In news from around the world, the track record of that infamous Covid shot continues to go from bad to worse.
As Vigilant Fox in twitter recently noted, those under 50 who took the shot reportedly suffer a 49% higher mortality rate.

Which might suggest why Switzerland has withdrawn all “vaccine” recommendations.

5) Pakistan. Imran Khan and the Cost of Standing Up to Globalists
In the week that President Trump was indicted, that other populist leader and enemy of Globalists - the ousted PM of Pakistan Imran Khan, has also been attending court hearings.
Except, this is how it’s done in Pakistan:

For background, see our explanation of why Imran Khan is being targeted in this way.
Radical Media reports from 5th November 2022:
As always, Radical Media will keep readers abreast of these struggles against globalism everywhere.
6) Self-Selecting Euthanasia
Regular readers will be aware of Radical Media’s ongoing concerns around legalised euthanasia.
Well, as in Canada, matters in the Netherlands have taken a nasty, yet entirely predictable, market-driven turn.
The Times reports 5th April 2023:
“Euthanasia is increasingly seen as a solution for social rather than medical problems.”
Let it be clear, this is self-selecting eugenics. We are collectively sick societies, and our governments are enabling this sickness, which is only further evidence of our collective sickness.
