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.
You must log in or register to comment.
“I’m not a Nazi, but twenty bucks is twenty bucks.”
–Substack, probably
“I’m also not not a Nazi”- Substack founders, definitely
I cringe everytime someone’s like “subscribe to my Substack”. No, fuck off with your substack, everyone knows they’re nazi supporters, you’re complicit.
No such thing as a Nazi supporter, my friend. That’s just a Nazi.
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?
My only cursory knowledge about substack is that if someone has one they’re insufferable. Have yet to be wrong.

Centrists: “Oh so everyone you disagree with is a nazi?”
Substack just annoying as can be anyway, with the constant spammy pop-ups about subscribed to my newsletter and whatever the hell else. Absolutely atrocious blogging platform
Can’t criticize unless an alternative is provided tho, can you?
You absolutely can and should regardless.
As a German it’s completely mind boggling to me that some societies tolerate an ideology that is responsible for plunging the world into its biggest humane catastrophe (so far), for the sake of free speech. Nazi ideology wants to kill free speech. If you truly want to protect free speech, you have to at least limit it to all the things that do not threaten it.
Free speech means free speech. Otherwise you end up in a UK situation, where you can illegally enter without ID, but if you want to complain about someone illegally entering without ID you have to provide your ID to twitter
