"I’m not going to go into too much detail about why their response is bunk. Ken Pope has a good summary, and Nick Heer also has a good take. I will, though, note that Substack’s attempt to portray itself as a “haven for free speech” means “speech we decide is acceptable”: the platform does not allow porn, which is protected free speech in the US. Clearly, the company is applying its values to decisions about what to host. Porn is bad, but Nazis – actual, real, Nazis – are fine."
