    I don’t fully understand, TBH. Is it particularly hard to create a substack competitor? Why don’t we just… Do that

      I think it’s a bold strategy to leave the bigger more populated and used platforms to constantly exist on the smaller less relevant ones that never grow and offer everything the major platforms do just worse.

    That doesn’t make any sense. We all left these platforms. Like an exodus. How would that make it harder for these nazi’s to take over these platforms?

  If you publish there, you are supporting right wing propaganda.

  Not how taking a cut of subscription revenue works. If you publish right wing propaganda, then maybe you have a point.

    How does utilizing and profiting from a service known to promote and profit extremist ideology not aid that service in the promotion thereof? By taking a portion of the profits, you direct traffic and money to the service, which is then directed to extremists. Seems pretty clearcut to me.
