  What’s wrong with it? (I never heard about it, just asking)

    They outright won’t ban Nazi content from their website. theverge.com/…/substack-nazi-moderation-demonetiz…

      It’s not just “won’t ban”.

      They collect money from subscriptions to Nazi authors, and pay those authors.

      They are a Nazi publisher.

    They commodity and profit from Nazis on their platform. When called out for it, they’re response was “We don’t like Nazis either, but we won’t do anything about them and we’ll continue to take our cut from their presence on our platform”

      That sounds an awful lot like them quietly liking it

        Turning a blind eye for profit is complicity.

      Oh I remember hearing that quote. That was them? I had a conversation about it like a week ago. I read “substack” in the article but all tech names are pretty interchangeable to me. They all have the same groupings for the type of thing they are and substack sounded like image hosting or something to do with coding or some template bank for some kind of necessity like invoices or something. Point is, tech names are stupid and I didn’t even put the name to the site as I read it. Good to know, though.

  If you’re so petty about it, use archive.org or archive.is to view the page

    Fellas, is it petty to refuse to support Nazis?

      If you have an adblocker, and you’re not visiting any of those nazi sites directly, but do derail a comment section about a totally unrelated article? I say it is, yeah.

      Then again, I can be pretty petty about circlejerks.

        I wouldn’t really call it a circlejerk to be against people who publish and profit from Nazi material.

        If I’m going to travel to a certain city I’m not going to stay in the hotel that’s hosting the Nazi convention. Here you are saying “yeesh it’s not like the convention will be inside your room!” But there are other hotels - simple as that.

        You act like a person needs some much better, really, really good reason not to read this article. If the site hosts Nazi content, that’s quite enough for me to just scroll to the next post. Why do any of us need to convince you or anyone else why this small act of conscience is valid?

      Viewing a website doesn’t mean supporting the website. Especially if you use an adblocker.
