Substack removes multiple newsletters including pro-Nazi content amid growing pressure | CNN Business

Substack has removed several publications for inciting violence, the newsletter publisher said in a statement shared with CNN Tuesday, as writers from across the platform threaten to quit over the presence of pro-Nazi content.

Although the platform has explicit guidelines banning content that incites violence, a November article in The Atlantic pointed out at least 16 different newsletters with Nazi symbols, as well as many more supporting far-right extremism, leading to calls for change from many Substack authors and a refusal from leadership.

    Being a Nazi is not just having an unpopular opinion and is not tolerable in any context

      No, they are just into solar patterns and uncontrollable stretches of their hand from time to time!

          Swastikas and seig heil throws. I was just ironizing about the presense of some controversial nazism you argued other person about. There’s none. Nazism is bad by definition.

              Not at all. As a non-native speaker I often ask for explanations myself, and there are a lot of non-neurotypical people who don’t pick the tone as casually as most do, so I don’t see any problem (:
