Substack sent a push alert encouraging users to subscribe to a Nazi newsletter that claimed Jewish people are a sickness and that we must eradicate minorities to build a “White homeland.”
This has been a problem for years: Substack has a Nazi problem - The Atlantic
Substack won’t commit to removing Nazi content - TechCrunch
I don’t think this can be ignored anymore. If you’re on Substack, please consider one of its many fine alternatives. Wired wrote about a few last year.
Plus, it’s quite easy to move a newsletter these days.
There is a deep irony covering this by writing about it… on Substack
In fairness, what better place is there for Substack users to see it and consider leaving the platform?
Funnily enough, they might also get censored on many other platforms if they linked or even pointed at an existing nazi blog/site/platform.
