I don't know what Twitter or Facebook or TikTok is like. I don't participate. I understand it to be the cesspool that you describe. Personally I've never seen a death threat or anything remotely resembling one in a substack comment.
Maybe I'm old fashioned but when substack authors specifically say "we would like to hear what you think" I take them at face value. John's comments make one feel like a sucker.
I appreciate your explanation.
