Per popular request, I have just turned on the option for readers to pay for my Substack newsletter if they wish to support my work through that payment method.
Thank you from those of us in the "cheap seats". There are a lot of us out here trying to make ends meet and stay abreast on what is really going in the new world order. Substacks are my go to with yours being a favorite. Much appreciated.
Caitlin, your passionate commitment to the truth is something I deeply admire, and why I look forward to everything you deem significant enough to frame in a commentary. It is good fortune that you are not dependent upon the generosity of your readers to do what you so artfully do, but I do hope your many readers are aware that there is no such thing as a free lunch.;
Never any confusion in understanding your writings on Substack.
However,.........what is
the best (simplest) way to send a donation to you, Caitlin to contribute to the future of my country, currently being led by the nose into an unwanted war with China.
Yes. it's called little Australia, a babe in the woods.
Yeah I'll definitely be staying on top of the warmongering in Australia. I find it interesting that after all this time focusing on the US empire's shenanigans around the world, one of its most significant frontlines has wound up forming right here in our little neck of the woods. All the donation systems are good and simple from what I can tell on this end. Patreon is great (https://www.patreon.com/caitlinjohnstone), as is PayPal (https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/caitlinjohnstone), or you can put whatever you want into a pay-what-you-feel e-book on Gumroad (https://caitoz.gumroad.com/). Substack looks simple and straightforward too. Thanks for asking!
Oh no Patreon is great, this is to accommodate the preferences of my supporters; either way is fine for me. Thank you for asking though; I've updated the message to make this clear.
Does one platform take less of a cut? I support people using Patreon and Substack (maybe others?), so it makes zero difference to me. I don't give a shit which billionaire gets a cut of my donation. I do give a shit if you get more of the pie on one platform or another.
Thank you for what you do, and thank you for keeping it available to those of us who really can't afford 1 more expense, but find your work so enlightening
STOP - DO NOT INVEST IN SUBSTACK'S BROKEN MODEL!!!
Seriously if they are begging for money and VC bailed it means its a broken model. Think about it, how many regular people are paying per writer $5 to $10 per month? Not enough apparently and the next thing they will introduce is advertising which is 1million times worse. This monetization model is for elites, elite writers and elite readers who can afford to pay to "benefit" from their writing. Its not Twitter but its just as elitist as Twitter and will devolve into the same mess and control mechanism.
Go check out web3. Go check out crypto. Go check out the MVP of my solo hobbiest project "dplatform.me" The next platforms will be web3, crypto, micro-transactions, and governed by decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) or no one
Hi Caitlin. I noticed a few days ago that Substack have started deleting comments. This occurred on Substack founder Hamish McKenzie's channel when he interviewed Emily Oster of the Ivy League bubble. Thanks. https://youtu.be/0CKvKN5wjt4
Caitlin, I found your writing a few years ago, before they unleashed the weaponized cold virus. Then, I wasn’t ready to hear the truth about the GAE. I’ve experienced wave after wave of glimpsing the reality. Your work has helped me to wake up. Thank you.

I support you on Patreon. Would you prefer here instead or shall I leave it as is?

Thanks. Keep up the fight, I'm trying to!! 🙏🏻

Thanks Caitlin...
Enjoy that sweet cash from this right-of-left-winger.
Well worth it, keep up the great work, Caitlin.
Good Stuff
While I support your work, I would like to see the option of making a smaller one time donation from Time to Time as I can afford it.
Thank you for what you do, and thank you for keeping it available to those of us who really can't afford 1 more expense, but find your work so enlightening
I will send a few mostly dead rodents in the post your way.
Hope you enjoy the treats!
Good for you, Caitlin!

The future is decentralized!
Paid you so fast it made my head spin. Thank you for the work you do.

Testing, testing. I’ll be glad if this works, because t has been a long time since I could leave comments at caitlinjhnstone.com
