    The CEO did an interview on The Verge with Nilay Patel and refused to say that he would take Nazi content off the platform, taking an 'absolute free-speech, nothing is censored' approach.

    The common sentiment is that refusing to take down Nazi content makes one complicit and supportive of Nazis.

    But I have no idea how many nazis post on Substack.

    No tolerance for intolerance is a principle which he seems to be whiffing on. Or maybe it's as simple as significantly more profit for him by turning a blind eye.
