The CEO of Substack was asked on a podcast if he would remove someone from Substack if they had written the world needs fewer black people, he didn’t reply. It was excruciating. So I wouldn’t hold out any hope. They seem to actually believe in free speech for all. TERFs, racists and Nazis welcome.
Thank you Sarah for sharing this, I had no idea that Substack is sinking to the same amoral depths as Fecebook, Twitter etc al. I am posting your letter on my page now

I think Freddie deBoer's take on this is worth reading:
"These Rules About Platforming Nazis Sure Seem Arbitrary and Incoherent!
Substack Nazis very bad, switch to Ghost or Wordpress, which also have Nazis"
