Substack promoted a Nazi blog again
-
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.

what are the fine alternatives?
I ended the post with a link to Wired about alternatives

Is there a substack self-hosted replacement
Ghost can be self-hosted. Even WordPress these days has newsletter and payment systems that sound fairly easy to drop in.
-
Oh no, how did you ever recover from that?
I'm still having nightmares

if i had a nickel for every time substack promoted a nazi blog.......
... i'd have a shitload of nickels.
Enough to put them all in the toe of a sock and swing it at some Nazis.

It's amazing what you can accomplish when you successfully gut public education.
what on earth are you talking about?? holocaust instruction is not "gutted," it increases year over year. the people you imagine are doing this gutting of public education are consistently some of the most vicious advocates for increasing holocaust instruction.

Centrists: "Oh so everyone you disagree with is a nazi?"
Some of them, most are just assholes

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.if we are being completely honest with ourselves, most people believe in free speech only in moderation. nazism is most certainly not the only ideology that sharply reduces free speech.

My only cursory knowledge about substack is that if someone has one they're insufferable.
Have yet to be wrong. -

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 -

I'm talking just WW2 history in general, but OK.
I can just speak to US public schools, but ALL education has suffered from the gutting of our public education here, and that includes "holocaust instruction."

Kinda like Medium or WordPress (the .com variant). Gives you your own subdomain and lets you blog. Their policy is that they absolutely will not editorialise anything. It's used by a lot of reputable good bloggers too

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.Germans saying this while their government is one of the biggest advocates for the ongoing genocide in Gaza will never not look stupid.

Looking at how many countries have started to have and even elect literal nazi parties, the education has been failing very widely and for a very long time (since WW2).

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.
