I'm mulling how far to take this. Medium won't kill the goose that laid the golden egg and will probably actively do anything to squash dissent about JW's writing. Money over everything? It would probably take a real investigative reporter to uncover the truth outside of the Medium sphere of control.

I agree, something happened to their writing a few months back and it went super doom and gloom and I like your idea that it could be propaganda to make us all feel bad or they realized that to way to money is to spew doom and gloom all the time just like somebody named Trump.
