How To Read Yuri's Top 10 Posts and Ask Me Anything
Celebrating 5,000 subscribers with a compilation of my most popular posts, removing paywalls from 2 fan favorites, and an invitation to syndicate or submit questions for a reader mailbag
Comrades: Thank you for helping this samizdat reach 5,000 subscribers! We are still growing 10x year over year.
Since many of you joined over the past month through notes, I have compiled the Top 10 most popular posts in this edition. As a bonus, I have removed paywalls from 2 fan favorites at the bottom - 94% of paid subscribers deemed last week’s fiction debut worthy of your eyes. There are also 2 playlists that pair well with the readings for your ears.
I am open to syndication opportunities, so I have changed the titles of a few posts away from the “How To” format. If you’d like to ask me a question and/or syndicate my writing, please submit it in the comments or e-mail yuribezmenov22 [at] protonmail. I will publish answers next week.
What is your favorite post and why? I will continue to post the spiciest unreported angles from deep inside the bowels of our rotten institutions. If you enjoy my work, I would be grateful for any upgrades from comrade to commissar:

According to French sociologist Alain Ehrenberg's recent works, neoliberalism has shifted many personal responsibilities to individuals, but the State still has a crucial duty to protect its citizens. Although Thatcher and Reagan partially reverted to pre-New Deal policies, any Western government that neglects its sovereign obligations risks inciting a significant revolt. - Luc
PS: I would suggest reading "The right of all to punish," of the late Robert Nozick's 1974 book, "Arnarchy, State, and Utopia."
