Merry Christmas, May the new year treat you kindly.

Recently, I shared Substack stories on a moderate political website. Two people told me I am posting to make money and one person told me I am a terrible writer because I am too obtuse, one announced that he would not read the story because he couldn’t understand its introduction, another said he hadn’t read the post but the introduction sounded like it was written by AI, one could not understand the objective of the post and asked me to explain it, and a few liked my story and some loved it.
