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.

It’s not just “won’t ban”.
They collect money from subscriptions to Nazi authors, and pay those authors.
They are a Nazi publisher.
