Introducing Fight Back Media

Today, I’m officially launching Fight Back Media.

This project exists for one simple reason: to push back against disinformation, bad-faith politics, and the systems that profit from keeping people uninformed. I’m here to not only KEEP you informed, but help you fight disinformation with REAL tools.

Too much political media today is shaped by incentives that have nothing to do with truth or accountability—clicks over context, outrage over understanding, access over honesty. Fight Back Media is my response to that. It’s a commitment to clear, direct political coverage that respects your intelligence and refuses to soften reality for the sake of comfort or profit. Sometime even things get annoying on the left, I find it important to also call that out.

Why This Exists (for now haha)

Independent media matters more than ever. But independence isn’t free. We are finding that out daily under this administration.

Fight Back Media is not backed by corporations, political action committees, or billionaire donors. There are no advertisers steering coverage and no investors demanding growth at the expense of integrity. This project is built to serve readers and viewers—not algorithms or sponsors. We started building community on twitter, then moved to threads and now we plan to expand all across social media. Currently just as myself, but starting to incorporate more FBM branding into coverage.

That also means it survives the same way all truly independent media does: through community support. You legitimately help me do this, and help shape these tools and stories.

What You’re Supporting

Your support helps fund:

• •Research time and fact-checking
• •Sustainable publishing and production
• •Platform growth and accessibility
• •The ability to stay consistent without burning out or watering things down
• •Occasionally tacos
• •Live stream fees

Even small contributions make a real difference. They help turn this from “content” into something durable, something that can last and grow without losing its purpose. Legitimately want to do this WITH you, not just FOR you.

How You Can Help

If you believe in honest political coverage, accountability over access, and media that actually fights back against disinformation, I’d be grateful for your support.

Thank you to everyone who has supported so far! I deeply appreciate you!

If donating isn’t possible right now, sharing this article, subscribing, or simply engaging with the work helps more than you might think. Plus, I honestly just enjoy shooting this shit with all of you. ❤️

Let’s Build This Together

Fight Back Media isn’t just a brand, it’s a project rooted in the idea that people deserve better from political coverage. Better questions. Better context. Better honesty.

Most importantly, we are ready to fight back against Donald Trump and this corrupt and incompetent administration.

This is the beginning.

And I’m glad you’re here for it.
