I wouldn’t really call it a circlejerk to be against people who publish and profit from Nazi material.

The person who wrote the article we’re supposed to be discussing in here is at least 2 degrees away from the nazis. At what point does it become circlejerk?

The Lemmy instance you’re on is linking to a substack and is collecting donations, but you seem to be fine with that. So I guess the threshold is 3 degrees?

I have nothing against the author of this article. I do have something against Substack. It really is that simple. If this article is posted somewhere else I’ll read it.

If this Lemmy instance had a bunch of Nazi content and the admins said they wanted to keep it up, then I’d block this instance. I wouldn’t try to rationalise it by saying “oh well it’s not like all the content is Nazi content…”

Again, it really is that simple.

If you’re fine with supporting a platform that welcomes Nazis with open arms, fine, you do you. It’s a personal choice.

Now you’re basically implying that I’m a Nazi-sympathiser. I find that a cheap tactic and highly offensive.

That’s my issues with these kind of oversimplifications and guilty-by-association-fallacies. Before you know it, everyone is Hitler. I’m not supporting anyone here. I read an article about Spotify on a blog, nobody gained any measurable financial worth from that.

I don’t think we’re going to find a common ground here. Have nice day.
