Substack’s extremist ecosystem is flourishing The app's recent swastika push alert was just the tip of the iceberg.

Back in 2023, @katz.theracket.news published a piece in The Atlantic about Substack’s Nazi problem, which led to us launching the Substackers Against Nazis campaign. We both subsequently left the platform, but many insisted the problem wasn’t *that* bad. Katz’s follow-up report finds it def is.

Cuomo, the pedo's choice.

good question because i always ran hot and can not tell the difference frankly

gyno something something 'heat from inside'

um...

It's like everything has to be monetized or it doesn't count now. We need to re-normalize basically ALL activities so it doesn't matter if people are making money from them. We need a return of third spaces, but also third space activities. Roller derby, amateur bands, DND that isn't streamed w/ ads

I have spent multiple weeks working on this story. We are not dropping it. I hope you will give this a read.

Please understand that if you air even a single ICE ad on your program, on your podcast, on your stream, you will never, for the rest of your mortal life, receive another dollar or another second of attention from me, or from millions of others.

I promise you, it is financial suicide.

ad agencies better close their doors to this

give them crayons and loose leaf papers to work on this

Yes, we know Illinois and Maryland are Dem gerrymanders. And WI, PA, NC, OH, FL, TX, UT are Republican gerrymanders. The Democrats support a nationwide ban on gerrymanders. Do any Republicans?

In my book, I show that an eviction can ruin someone's life *even if it never happens.* A mere eviction FILING—even one dismissed in court—can destroy your credit and lock you out of housing for years.

That's why I say people aren't "falling" into homelessness. They're being pushed.

The Legionnaire's Disease cluster in Central Harlem has now grown to 58 cases. 21 hospitalized.

Tragically there has been a 2nd death.

If you live or work in zip codes 10027, 10030, 10035, 10037 or 10039 and you develop flu-like symptoms, contact a health care provider immediately.

It was strangely relieving to hear her say it so definitively. It was truly making me feel like I was losing my mind having people act like this wasn't so. That said, hearing Maddow having use the present tense of WHERE WE ARE....the truth can be chilling to hear.

My best friend who watches Maddow just called to tell me that she landed the plane and plainly stated that the US is currently being ruled by a consolidating authoritarian regime. Not that it is 'descending into' etc etc but that it is here. Maybe this will move more liberals to say the same.

Q: Why did you cut snap and health care research?

Rep. Flood: We do not have unlimited money in the United States.

Men who don't get laid are given tools and advice every fucking day and they don't take it. They don't want that, they want to manipulate women into liking the shitty version of them that exists already. The left says "be better" the right says "stay the course" and that's where y'all fucked up.

"Our children are dying."

Roishetta and Kamea Ozane are a mother and daughter from Louisiana's "Cancer Alley," where oil and gas pollution is linked to a host of health issues. They are in New York this week to protest "toxic billionaires" who finance the industry harming their community.

See if you can spot when tariffs were announced.

It wasn't an oopsie it was the government creating propaganda to allow them to implement tariffs without major resistance, plus the media choosing not to dig.

I've seen some of this doc.... this is all very interesting

Editorial: Why We Choose to Boycott Macmillan E-books A librarian explains the decision to draw the line over Macmillan's decision to embargo new release e-books in public libraries.

Unfortunately many corporate publishers do actively try to harm libraries. This has been true of academic publishers like Elsevier for decades, and is increasingly true of popular publishers like Macmillan. Here’s one essay explaining publisher tactics to undermine libraries.

This is going to be a generational destruction of human capital in service to the rich. They are intentionally destroying the markets for white collar skilled labor in order to depreciate wages in a Khmer Rouge-esque fantasy of returning to industrialization. They want to enslave you, in short.

Virginia out there setting its Republicans on fire

People have succeeded in trashing TESLA's brand. A similar determined campaign can do the same to ICE.

They ask why Black people can’t get ahead, meanwhile several times in American history Black communities were massacred for being prosperous.

Substack has a Nazi problem. If you're starting a newsletter in 2025, you have other options and you absolutely should take them for moral and ethical reasons, imo. I'm on @buttondown.com and it's pretty great!
