Also unsurprising

Also unsurprising but not as important as arsonists…

Bari Weiss set up a fake “independent” news source using Substack as the platform. At first it looked independent, but soon showed its purpose. It’s just a branch office of NYTimes. Bari allegedly got disgusted with NYTimes and quit to form her own media company. She’s competing with NYTimes by offering the same thing, not by offering the opposite.

Now she’s getting bought by Larry Ellison’s son David, who already owns several major Hollywood and media companies, all standard DNC copypasters. Again unsurprising, since the sole purpose of starting a major business now is to be bought by a Tech Tyrant.

NOBODY wants to run a business to make a product and serve customers and employees.

Substack’s founder McKenzie is cheering for this non-surprise, fraudulently describing it as a triumph for feisty independence. Substack itself went through the same sequence of initial fraudulent novelty, soon revealed as a rebrand of standard Deepstate shit. It’s been clear for a while that Substack is also trying to get bought by a Tech Tyrant. When a major part of your success is bought by Tech Tyrant A, the other Tech Tyrants will get jealous and try to get the rest. That’s why Hamish is happy.

Moral of the story: You can’t be creative and big at the same time. The only way to grow is through digestion by a larger shark.

Before the Tech Tyrant and Share Value coup in 1980, many businesses grew to serve a DIFFERENT niche. Most of the big companies founded before 1980 were trying to be different, trying to serve people who were NOT served by GM or GE or Sears. They weren’t trying to be the same size as GM, and didn’t want to be digested by GM. They just wanted to make money by selling things that people couldn’t get from GM. Nash/AMC grew large enough by this method, and finally got bought by a conglomerate in 1980.
