That’s what I’m finding too, a lot of them give you just a couple paragraphs and then demand a subscription to keep reading. I’m all for supporting creators but a lot of substacks are so aggressive with it.
They have a ton of lgbtq, socialist, poc empowerment, and environmentalist newsletters you can sub to as well. Not sure what your point is, if you don’t want the toxic newsletters don’t sub to them? That’s like trying to disparage Lemmy as a whole because exploding heads exists.
Gotcha, I misread your intention, my bad. I agree it’s less than great but unfortunately anywhere there’s people those types will eventually find their way. As we found with the centralized platforms and are now finding in decentralized platforms too. I like it a lot more on the decentralized platforms though, since they’re all pretty much contained to those instances that we don’t federate with so I never have to see them. I’m a NIMBY towards TERFs, racial supremacists, and anybody remotely similar lol

Substack also published a white supremacist email newsletter this week!

No no, it’s just kind of wild to read about.
