Substack has removed several publications for inciting violence, the newsletter publisher said in a statement shared with CNN Tuesday, as writers from across the platform threaten to quit over the presence of pro-Nazi content.

Although the platform has explicit guidelines banning content that incites violence, a November article in The Atlantic pointed out at least 16 different newsletters with Nazi symbols, as well as many more supporting far-right extremism, leading to calls for change from many Substack authors and a refusal from leadership.

    I always wonder why platforms that do this don’t get used for good things. So many horrible governments out there. Why can’t these platforms be full of people who live under those governments screaming for freedom and calling out corruption? Instead it is western basement dwelling Nazis planning school shootings.
