We're not taking back what we said about how we wouldn't kick Nazis off the platform... but we're kicking Nazis off the platform.
What a fucking laugh. Fuck Substack.
I agree, it's a tiny step in the right direction, but definitely too little too late.
It's not though, like they say themselves it's only a reconsideration of the existing policies which is to maximize profit, morals be dammed. First they welcomed Nazis because Nazis gave them money and now they don't because Nazis cause other people to stop giving them money. If Nazis wasn't bad business nothing would have changed. This whole ordeal showed what kind of people they are.
Plus, they can't even admit they're caving to public pressure. Ego-ridden Nazi sympathizers, weird how that keeps happening.
