Subst*ck lack of moderation; overt racism

Yesterday Substack reached unicorn status (1 billion dollar valuation). Yes, Substack, the publishing equivalent of a Nazi bar.

2 months ago I collected evidence of what the lack of moderation does: putting unchecked racism, antisemitism & fatphobia out in the open.

I collected evidence but I'm not the right person to air this. Do you have recommendations re: bloggers / journalists who might be interested?

Update: I just wrote to Jason at 404 Media 💁‍♀️
