What we really need is for the people who have a large platform to leave but when it comes down to it, most people are going to stay where the money is regardless of hate and harm. We still exist in capitalism & bills must be paid.

I started my newsletter on Substack in Jan 2020 & left in April 2022. I could not in good conscience stay there. My newsletter has been going for over 6 years & subscriber growth stopped the moment I left the n*zi site. Sometimes I wonder where I'd be if I'd stayed, but I don't regret it.

I have watched more & more friends turn to Substack in the past few months. PLEASE DON'T DO THIS! #Substack has well-documented problems with platforming literal Nazis, as well as writers spreading Covid misinformation, anti-vaccine propaganda, & transphobia. Long post here: bit.ly/substacksux
