I don't either but I know most of the people on here can't climb over the WSJ paywall.

Twitter is a fuckall-doing company. Which distinguishes them from the rest of the social media sphere not one iota.

I thank you for trying to post around paywalls. NYT seems to have gotten wise to the Firefox Focus work around. WaPo randomly locks me out. WSJ isn't usually a thing I want to read so I don't know what their paywall would do to me

It makes me feel bad but the best investigative journalism I've seen in the past couple years is paid for by Rupert Murdoch. 1MDB was all about the Wall Street Journal and that has crawled all the way up Lloyd Blankfein's colon. Theranos was taken down by the WSJ, too. And the WSJ has that whole Unprepared series, which is about the only clear-eyed mainstream view of just how fucked boomers are.
