Punch these fuckers. Substack is a Nazi bar. Go with #Ghost people!
“One of its recent posts suggests the Jewish race was responsible for the second world war and describes Adolf Hitler as “one of the greatest men of all time”. Within two hours of subscribing to NatSocToday for the purposes of this investigation, the Substack algorithm directed the Guardian’s account to 21 other profiles featuring similar content.”
I hate telling people what to do with their lives, but I think it's time to try convincing people still using #Substack that... they shoudn't...
Starting with @tobiasharris.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy and @billadler.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy. It's easy to migrate to #Ghost.

Stop using #Substack, especially if you write, and goddamn it, especially if you write supposedly #antifascist content or in any way think of yourself as opposition to the rise of #antifascism in any country.
I use #Ghost and I can vouch for it, but there are other options, too.

The problem of #Substack is old: "Launched in 2017, the platform has previously faced criticism for hosting newsletters that promote #extremist views. Its co-founder, Hamish McKenzie addressed its decision to host #Nazi content in one of his own posts on the site in 2023."
But now #algorithms even promote it! "Substack #algorithm directed the Guardian’s account to 21 other profiles featuring similar content." https://www.theguardian.com/media/2026/feb/07/revealed-how-substack-makes-money-from-hosting-nazi-newsletters
Good morning. 😴🥱☕
7 February 2026
I woke up groggy and disoriented, which isn’t unusual when I fall asleep in my chair. The TV was still on but silent, and Charlie was sitting in front of me, staring like he’d been waiting for me to rejoin the living. I rubbed my eyes, stood, and made my way through the house toward the bedroom, Charlie padding along behind me.
My wife was in front of the mirror doing something with her hair. “I fell asleep,” I said. She glanced over and smiled, but didn’t say a word. That alone was strange—she’s usually quick with a comment.
I headed into the bathroom and turned on the shower. When I looked back through the doorway, Charlie was sitting exactly where I’d been standing, watching my wife. He was perfectly still except for that black border collie tail, curved up with the white tip held like a little flag.
The shower felt good—narrow jets of hot water working into my neck and shoulders—so I stayed longer than usual, letting the heat soak through me. When I finished, I pulled on a T‑shirt and gym shorts and headed back toward my chair.
Down the hall, through the kitchen, into the family room—and then I froze. Because there I was, still lying back in my recliner, wearing the old blue jeans and olive drab work shirt I’d had on all day.
I wasn’t shocked or scared. My first thought was simply, Well, will you look at that. Hadn’t my wife just seen me walk through the bedroom? Or had she only reacted to Charlie? Then another thought drifted in: Well, there it is. Apparently life doesn’t go on after all.
Of course, none of this happened. But it felt like the start of a pretty good ghost story.

oh hey, another Ghost + Outpost publication (not substack!)
"Autonomy News is a new worker-owned reproductive rights and justice publication co-founded by Garnet Henderson and Susan Rinkunas, featuring original reporting and sharp analysis that applies a human rights framework to issues including abortion, contraception, and gender-affirming care.
Garnet and Susan are among the most trusted reporters on this beat in the U.S. Combined, they have more than two decades’ experience, plus unparalleled sourcing and strong points of view. Their writing has appeared in The Nation, ELLE, The Guardian, and The New Republic, and more. They first met at VICE, where Susan edited Garnet’s work."
@tirf @KitaitiMakoto there is also #Ghost!

Many ghosts in turmoil can only move on with the aid of the living.
...sometimes, the required assistance is rather easy to fulfill.

Ok. Time to actually start writing on my Ghost site.

A reminder, so people don’t forget. Substack unabashedly platforms and promotes literal Nazi publications.
If you publish on Substack or support authors there, you are paying rent for nazis. It’s that simple.
Refuse to support authors there, and they will move.
Ghost awaits:
