Rendering of italics messed up in alt capitalist blog post #57

Closed Frijol closed 4 years ago

Should be quick, need to check out why * are appearing rather than being interpreted as italics (even though sometimes italics are appearing):

This is happening because our renderer can't recognize nesting of bold and italics through e.g. *here's a **bold** part of an italicized sentence* | here's a bold part of an italicized sentence.

My quick fix is to just not nest them in the markdown; a better fix would be to change the rendering engine but I doubt it's worth our time
