Do not give up, Dr. Merritt! We need your voice here, and we must not comply with these intimidation tactics.
You are not the first to come up against this attempt by Stripe to censor dissident voices, but we can and *must* fight these efforts to silence truth warriors and hold them accountable for their Stasi stratagems.
I do want to clarify that this is not a Substack issue but rather a Stripe one. It is unfortunate that Substack solely uses Stripe for payment processing (one I hope will eventually be rectified with additional options), but the decision to prohibit you from earning income is coming from Stripe, not Substack.
I am extremely appreciative of your unique platform and the opportunities it provides to access independent voices.
I have many paid subscriptions and some free subscriptions.
I am writing to inquire about the status of Dr. Lee Merritt’s Substack “The Medical Rebel Commentary.” Is this now to happen on Substack? Sudden censorship of a medical doctor?
Is it because you use only one payment processor?
Aren’t there alternatives?
I appreciate your attention to this matter, and hoping your staff are reviewing the responses to this action on Dr. Merritt’s Substack.
Substack is growing a positive and unique brand that draws a lot of highly talented and educated writers. To let stand an action like this as it hits at part of that brand image could be damaging. Look at GoFundMe and GiveSendGo—their brands have soured with many former givers to that platform.
Readers and viewers of media content are sick of censorship and have found Substack to be a beautiful oasis specializing in thoughtful long format articles and meaningful reader participation and interaction.
That was so eloquently stated. I am happy to send them an email as well. In the event you hear back from them very soon… please let us know. I am curious as to why Dr Merritt was censored when many doctors & scientists who speak the truth, have not been deplatformed ?? I would expect someone to respond to your very polite email!
It is a sad day indeed in which companies who benefit directly from the constitutional rights and liberties given to them in this country, choose now to censor others according to there own will....they will fall by their own hands!...
Your voice will not be silenced Dr Merritt or ignored because your war is noble and righteous!
... like so many others who are making a stand, we all need to do our part!...there are always lessons to learn in life, this is ours right now...to me this war is biblical, for it effects all of mankind and Gods creation, We are here for a reason, the world is suffering because it has turned away from God..!He has been systematically removed, from schools, from institutions, from our town squares...and we are all complicit in this evil in varying degrees...Mia Culpa, Mia Culpa, Mia Maxima Culpa....but this evil is being exposed ...I do not fear them...as it goes though I walk through the shadow of death...by the grace of God we are beIng enlightened and will be mercifully saved at His appointed time...meanwhile we need to fight the good fight...for we will be known by our deeds..:)...and I for one hope to hear some day...“you have loved much, many sins are forgiven you”!...
your voice among others may seem like just a cry in the wilderness but when when combined with others heartfelt prayers and supplications... with others doing just deeds and actions, It will reverberate unto the throne of God! 🙏.
Remember St. John was a voice in the wilderness too!
This is egregious. They did the same thing to Dr. Bartlett for the “Defense Pack” he was selling because it had NAC, Melatonin, and Quercetin in it. These discriminatory practices must stop. It’s not right.
Thoroughly DISGUSTED that censorship has come to Substack. Dr Merritt has incredible insight and offers fascinating explanations of the DNA warfare we're embroiled in. Find her and follow!!
You did, and thank you for that. Truth told, no one should be in that position. If Dr. Merritt is not safe, no one is. And, I think Substack, if it chooses to only use Stripe, both has a vested interest in ensuring the widest audience possible (by supporting authors who attract the audience) and is in a position to influence how authors are treated. Stripe may well be the culprit, but Substack may well be an enabler if it turns a blind eye to censorship.
I agree, Joe, and having only one avenue of payment that could be arbitrarily cut off at a whim is extremely disconcerting. I’ll contact my Substack tech support guy to see if they can look into additional payment processor options. Unfortunately, there are very few payment processors out there, which makes this the Achilles’ heel for those of us who are doing this full-time and rely on the generosity of our readers to survive.
You have inspired me to a hypothesis. I have been trying to reach you through the Medical Rebel website, but my submission gets a 505 error every time.
I've been doing a deep dive for four years into exactly what is happening to people right now. Please read to the end. This is important.
What I think I understand now is that it is not the human itself that breaks down the food we eat, but rather the symbiotes that colonize within our digestive system. They start to colonize from infancy. All living organisms on the planet utilize symbiosis for survival. There are three types of symbiotic relationships; mutualistic, communalistic and parasitic. A healthy digestive flora is filled with mutualistic and communalistic symbiotes that keep all our systems functioning in a healthy state. They are able to break down complex molecules and send signals to many different systems within the body: endocrine, hormonal and immune to name a few. When that healthy flora colony becomes damaged it allows opportunistic parasites to move in and flourish. ●The parasite itself changes the state of the body to a hypoxic state and changes the metabolic pathways towards glycolitic.● Both of these adjustments benefit the parasite and drive the host to crave simple sugars, which are easily digestible by the parasites. The parasites flourish under these conditions. This creates many disease states. Parasitic infections also increase IgG4 levels.
(Maybe the increasing injections destroyed the good symbiotes, we know it completely wiped out bifidobacterium. Do the parasites induce elevated IgG4 to escape immune destruction? Is it the spike the IgG4 is tolerating, or the parasites?)
The facts I listed above are currently indisputable and backed by scientific understanding and observation.
^^^"IgG4 antibodies inhibit clearance of tumor cells or the invader, respectively, in melanoma or helminthic infections."
I think we should start testing the digestive flora of the people suffering current disease states for parasites. Long covid, hiv, diabetes, Alzheimer's, Autism, chronic fatigue, lupus. All these disease states have two things in common; hypoxia and a glycolitic metabolic pathway. Both of these states are induced by parasites to benefit themselves to the detriment of the host.
The human being is a walking, talking terrarium. We cannot see the terrarium, so we are not aware when it becomes damaged and attribute parasitical disease states to other causes. I believe it is why fasting works. It's why the carnivore diet works. It's why the keto diet works. These interventions starve the parasites of the simple sugars they need to stay alive.
I think the goal of treatment protocols should be to restore the digestive environment to one that is beneficial to colonization of mutualistic and communalistic symbiotes and not to parasites.
Anything ultra processed will feed the parasites. Anything as close to natural as it comes will feed the mutualistic and communalistic symbiotes. I think there must be a variety of food stuffs full of living organisms, though. I don't think the fasting, carnivore or keto diets have it completely correct.
Perhaps a treatment with anti-parasitics. (Perhaps that is why Ivermectin works so well for so many disease states.) Followed by a diet plan that includes living fruits, vegetables, herbs and botanicals; fresh meats and dairy; and aged/fermented foods to establish a healthy digestive flora. These foods are full of living organisms that are beneficial in establishing a colony of healthy symbiotes in the digestive system.
I think this is the way.
"Every person is a collective, a vast and complex gathering of interdependent life. Any description of ‘human’ must acknowledge these intimate strangers. Our bond with microbes is such that they are not so much riders, parasites, and assistants as part human. And we, it’s becoming increasingly clear, may need to begin thinking of ourselves as part microbe."

Thank you for your time and consideration, Dr. Merritt. And for all you do to move the scientific debate forward. If you would like to discuss any of this further, don't hesitate to reach out.
I cannot see how this "stripe"'s refusal to process your finances translates to censorship?
Substack is supposed to be for writers, therefore I imagine most all of your supporters wouldn't be too put out with sending a check? Others online provide this option.
I believe that God is using you in a mighty way! We're winning this battle because of brave people like you. Truth is light and lies are dark. Light is the extinguisher darkness! It exposes all their dirty deeds!

It is unfortunate that Substack solely uses Stripe for payment processing (one I hope will eventually be rectified with additional options), but the decision to prohibit you from earning income is coming from Stripe, not Substack.
So, if Substack uses different payment, Dr Merritt will be able to publish? It sounded like she tried to work things out but, was unsuccessful???
I have written to Substack at their customer service address:

Here is what I wrote:

Substack only uses Stripe.

WOW!! I did not expect this!!!
Bill must’ve now, donated to Substack too!!! I am horrified!!! I sooooo depended on Substack!!! This is OUTRAGEOUS!!
See my comment (https://drleemerritt.substack.com/p/the-great-dna-war-terminated/comment/7784421) for more details, but this is from Stripe, not Substack.
This is egregious. They did the same thing to Dr. Bartlett for the “Defense Pack” he was selling because it had NAC, Melatonin, and Quercetin in it. These discriminatory practices must stop. It’s not right.
Dr Merritt you need to look at Australia's onshore gain-of-function program. Vaccines are rather exempt from controls as well. https://vicparkpetition.substack.com/p/australias-gain-of-function-research
STRIPE. This is ridiculous. We want the Medical Rebel.
https://www.paralleleconomy.com/ Does not censor. Give it a try.
Thoroughly DISGUSTED that censorship has come to Substack. Dr Merritt has incredible insight and offers fascinating explanations of the DNA warfare we're embroiled in. Find her and follow!!
Hmm. I came to Substack for uncensored content. Might be time to terminate my subscriptions and go directly to the authors. Is nothing safe from them?
I explain this more detail in my comment, but this is coming from Stripe, not Substack. Sage Hana ran into this speedbump, fought it, and won.

Ah, the somber light of day
Hi Dr Merritt. You’re my favorite doctor. I love all your theories. Do you mind making a list of the conspiracy type books you recommend?
I’m also a paid subscriber on the Exit the Biomatrix but I see no way to contact you.
You're brilliant and wonderful!
