I don't believe OnionShare uses txtorcon at all, actually. And I wrote txtorcon, not Micah ;) but they're both decent options for publishing depending on your use-cases.

people arguing (out of principal or to push their views) for some kind of freedom to publish on a for profit company's site are simply seeking that company's audience to spread their message

Sure... Since it is virtually impossible (for normal folks) to publish any other way.
It's true that the process of setting up and managing websites can be daunting. Even using shared hosting, let alone on a VPS. And then there's the additional complexity of HTTPS, which is now pretty much the norm (even when not really needed, with no account creation or payment processing).
Using Micah Lee's OnionShare, one can easily create Tor onion sites.[0] They can be transient (for file-sharing) or persistent. It's based on his txtorcon library,[1] specifically TCPHiddenServiceEndpoint.[2]
That still might be a little intimidating, but hey.
