Writers: Beware of the FBI here on Substack

The FBI is trying to infiltrate your community and plant messages encouraging violence to smear Substack and its writers

Good day frens,

Earlier today, I had to delete a comment that somebody posted on one of my posts on Notes. I also blocked the account that posted it. Why did I do this? Because the account encouraged violence as the only way to resolve the current state of affairs inside this country.

Beware, my frens! Such posts are likely done by the FBI or one of their paid minions. Under no circumstances should you allow such nonsense to infiltrate your article comments or your posts on Notes.

When you see such material, delete it immediately and ban and block the account that posted it. Do not allow the FBI or their paid goons to infiltrate your Substack community and begin planting messages that encourage people to engage in violence.

The FBI has manipulated people into planning or engaging outright in violence too many times to not take this threat to your community seriously. Do not let them have access to your Substack!

Remain on alert for such material and act swiftly to deal with it appropriately. You will often see it posted by accounts with no content, but sometimes also accounts with content. Be aware when you see a comment, and if it seems suspicious, check the profile of the person who posted it.

And I say this also to any of my readers who might want to post such things: If I see anyone encouraging violence or even trying to subtly manipulate others to commit violence, I will zap your comments and remove you from my subscriber list. You will also be banned instantly, and I do not care if you are a paying subscriber.

Take heed, my frens. The days of the FBI ignoring Substack and Notes are behind us. There are many suspicious accounts on this platform now, so make sure you police your article comments and your Notes posts comments.

How to delete comments and ban people in article discussions:

1. Access your article comments in a web browser.

2. Click the … on the right of the comment.

3. Click “Ban or suspend user”

4. Click the drop-down menu and change to “Indefinitely”

5. Click the “Ban for All Time” button.

6. The default setting is to also remove all comments, so you won’t need to do it manually.

How to delete comments on Notes:

1. Access Notes in a web browser.

2. Click the … to the right of the comment.

3. Choose “delete” or “block” in the menu.

4. You might want to right-click their profile and open it in a separate tab first if you plan to delete the message and then block them. You can’t do both at the same time in Notes.

I hope you find this useful, my fellow writers. If you are on the dissident right, then it is very likely that your article comments and Notes comments have already been targeted for infiltration and the planting of comments encouraging violence.

Don’t let it happen, remove such material immediately and ban/block the user.

UPDATE: One thing I forgot: if you get a comment encouraging violence, take a screenshot of it and report it to Substack. Make them aware that that account is posting such material so they can deal with it on their end, and hopefully they will ban the account.

UPDATE 2: I understand that there are more bad actors online than just the FBI. But it really doesn’t matter who is behind the post calling for violence. Take a screenshot, report it to Substack, then delete the comment and ban/block the user. Protect yourself and your community.
