@bradenslen extra thoughts on bullying …

🔗 Chris Best on Substack

To which Kottke writes …

🔗 Approvingly citing Musk/X and Zuck/Meta, Substack reiterates its commitment to support Nazis, antisemites, anti-vaxxers, transphobes, and homophobes in spreading disinformation & hate under the guise of “free speech”.

and what JK writes I have read similar … often. I read Substackers a lot and never ever come across anything that hits that description. Though according to people I read - they are there.

The difference is that I get a choice on Substack - and if i choose not to follow those accounts - I don’t see them. (Or at least I assume that is how it s working.)

In fact you would have to use the app to actually see any of that stuff … and if my stats are anyting to go by - their app readership is a very small percentage of the email subscriptions ….

Here’s the question … is JK bullying? Just pointing stuff out? Trying to ‘out them’? Back them down?

What do you (and anyone else) think is going on?
