That you look at Substack and can only think of Nazis says a lot more about you than it does about this platform.
I encounter extremism on this platform far less than anywhere else on the internet (including Bluesky, which you seem to approve of). I don't even know how to find these evil people you speak of on Substackβ€”| literally never see them-and I help run this place!
Meanwhile, I encounter, and enjoy supporting, far more quality art, culture, and journalism on this platform than on any other platform l've ever found on the internet.
I know I will never convince you of this reality. But it doesn't matter. Someone has to say it anyway.

What it says about me is that I don't want to lend my credibility to Substack by writing on a platform that is fine platforming Nazis - and even financially benefit from platforming Nazis. The facts are clear, when you had the opportunity to act you did close to nothing:
I'm convinced that you find great people on Substack. I'm also convinced that Substack helps a bunch of people making a living out of their work. See, l'm not some obtuse ideologue who doesn't care about the facts. I can be convinced.
But these facts don't negate another series of facts: you platform Nazis, you're fine platforming Nazis, and you financially benefit from platforming Nazis.
Again, I can be convinced. But not by cherry-picking facts to create a self-serving narrative. All the facts matter.
Speaking of facts, it's funny that you mention bad actors on Bluesky. Bluesky has a robust trust and safety team to deal with them. How many people work on trust and safety at Substack?
May I suggest that the reason why you don't find Nazis on Substack is because Substack doesn't have a robust enough trust and safety team for you to do so - assuming there's even one?
At the end of day, and contrary to what your cherry-picked and self-serving narrative tries to say, the fact that Substack platforms Nazis does say a lot about the platform.

Here is the co-founder of Substack blaming its users for seeing Nazis on the platform and then trying to deflect from the fact that Substack revenue shares with Nazis by saying he encounters more extremism here on Bluesky (which doesn't revenue share with Nazis).

This is I ndefensible.

Immigrant children, as young as months old, at risk of trafficking, lose legal representation.

"This means that children are expected to show up in court, as of tomorrow, on their own, with no legal counsel, and try to defend themselves from deportation”

Musk and his army of dipshits on Twitter keep pointing to Bill Clinton’s federal worker reduction in the 1990s to defend Trump. The difference? Congress passed a law that Clinton signed, he didn’t just get the nearest billionaire to illegally start dismantling the government based on his whims.

First-year Northeastern student has a role at Musk’s DOGE, according to reports - The Boston Globe Edward Coristine is reportedly one of six men between the ages of 19 and 24 working for DOGE.

One of Elon's incel thugs is a 19 year old freshman from Northeastern whose dad is the CEO of Lesser Evil snacks.

Boycott them like we are boycotting Tesla.

In 1968, 24 Black men in Pittsburgh revolutionized emergency medicine.

Gaslighting is the entire GOP playbook. From β€˜biggest crowd ever’ to β€˜normal tourist visit,’ they’re betting you’ll ignore reality. If we allow them to keep rewriting history, they’ll keep burning the truth to the ground.

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps.

The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years.

History is repeating. Pay attention.

The oligarchs cling to MLK’s β€œI Have a Dream” speechβ€”because dreams aren’t a threat.

They hide thisβ€”we will have to pay the bill while they keep TAKING and distracting us with HATE for each other so that we won’t notice.

They don’t want you to know about Martin Luther King’s β€œOne Penny” speech…
