   #substack, by first refusing to ban nazis under the guise of being a "free speech" platform, and then turning around and saying "actually we'll ban some of the nazis", has taken the route that will piss off the most people possible

   good work, boys

     I'm also disappointed in Casey Newton's post on this where he literally asks his audience if Substack's pathetic response is good enough for him to keep supporting their platform. Several commenters who clearly didn't read beyond the headline said it was great news. Or maybe they just don't care.

     Regardless, I'm not sharing his post for that reason. I'll wait for a news article or blog post *not* hosted on a Nazi Lite platform.

     No, I got the impression that he's leaving it up to his audience, instead of following his own moral compass.
