Is there another source for this? Not to ad hominem, but this guy is a crazy COVID conspiracy theorist. He might be right on dioxins, but it’s hard to believe anything he says.
Some folks will remember a high school debate resolution on water quality and a year of speeches and arguments that centered around the harms of dioxin.
That is a very... odd web site. A bunch of astrological nonsense with this article about dioxins thrown in. I'd caution against treating this like a reputable news source.
Substack is a website where basically anyone can start a blog/newsletter, there is a subscription model (you subscribe to a newsletter/blog, not the whole site) that the authors can use to put some content behind a paywall.
On one hand it's not really a "news source" like a regular newspaper, on the other hand they did contact relatively famous bloggers/people offering them really great deals, at least at the start of the platform.
There is some good stuff scattered around on that site, but whenever I find myself thinking "this is the worst article I've read this week/month/year/decade," I look up up at the URL bar, and it is invariably Substack.
They're not referring to the Substack platform, they're referring to this specific newsletter/blog this post is in; it's made by the self-described "nonprofit investigative team Chiron Return." Googling "Chiron return" I discover it's an astrological term and other posts on their home page makes it clear that they do write about astrology.
