From the beginning, Substack only allowed payment to writers from rich, Western countries. Most of the world, which needs payment more, was excluded. Me too.

Substack is disingenuous hiding behind some monopoly trading banker. The banker turns into attack dog to erase unpalatable thoughts in its client's online host. History does contain some lessons in this regard. So really the ball is in substack's court to open up myriad channels to accept the cash - like immediately!. One can't really claim genuine free speech and then impose disingenuine closed finance and then say and do nothing when the hammer comes down.

Clearly an open global platform needs to be standing on a pillar of open global financial support and institutions. The westies are scoundrels.
