You know, I sometimes feel like I'm being kind of a bitch by refusing to subscribe to Substack newsletters, refusing to share Substack links. But this is why. Substack is a right-wing social media platform that uses its token left-wing writers and apolitical newsletters as cover. I don't want any part of that.

I've been interacting happily on Substack for well over a year; yet to even see a bit of a right-wing post
It's not the platform; it's the people we choose to meet there
There is a vast amount of quite wonderful material distributed through Substack, which gets missed due to this kind of prejudice

The moderate people drinking at the Nazi bar help legitimatize the Nazis there.
