I'm surprised they didn't even try to go for the "it's extreme and terminates any discourse the moment you call someone you don't like a nazi," just straight "Look, nazis deserve to be published and their money is real." That tells me there has to be some heinous hitlerdidnothingwrong.substack.com poo poo they wanna keep taking a cut from.
There are. This letter is a response to a writers' movement that published how many successful Nazi journals are on Substack, and asked Substack to stop subsidizing Nazis.

I feel like at this point the only apology from something like this I'd understand is "yeah I was a total piece of poo poo and I thought I could get away with it because it was comfortable and easy, there's no justifying what I did". Just accepting it, yknow? I don't think that'd make me forgive the person by any stretch but at least it feels human and not some additional alien layer of trying to keep scamming.

I agree with pretty much everything here. Being a victim of plagiarism myself in college, it’s deeply hurtful and people refusing to take responsibility is maddening and it seems like every apology is some variant on "well I tried to do the right thing and also I just never really realized I was doing the wrong thing?

It's enriched rice, so you won't get beriberi. You will still get scurvy, however.

It’s easy to inadvertently undo the enrichment by rinsing the rice.

Either way, they’d run through the twenty pounds of rice meeting their dietary energy in like a week fortnight. They’d just start starving before they got either beriberi or scurvy. The rice doesn’t much change the timeline.

20 pounds of dry white rice is nearly 17 days of calories, assuming a 2,000/day diet.

There was a Canadian politician who got dragged through the dirt for saying poor people could save money by haggling for cheaper dented cans, and offered a welfare diet.

Tsubouchi’s list, which included nine servings of pasta but no sauce, and did not include butter, salt or other pantry staples, was widely ridiculed.

Apparently it's been the benchmark for how lovely food prices are for the last 30 years.

You’re right.

It still wins the race against thiamine depletion and beriberi, and scurvy is slower than that.

First they start starving, then they suffer various nutrient deficiencies, then they finish starving.

University should be free anyway, because an educated populous is good for society, but it definitely shouldn’t only be viewed as a way to get a high paying job.

But that would be socialism, which American politicians are deathly allergic to. It would undermine capitalism and we can't have that. See: keeping our ruinously expensive healthcare system rather than implementing socialized healthcare like actually sane countries have. And Republicans continually trying to kill the entire public safety net including all forms of welfare, Social Security and Medicare.

They want to keep us all in huge amounts of debt because that props up the entire capitalist system.
