I mean I agree with your premise, but using a grok screenshot or whatever to prove your point is about on par with quoting the bible in multiple ways.@FritzAdalis @codinghorror I refer people to https://leavesubstack.com which has a bunch of links. One of the recent detailed ones is https://www.theguardian.com/media/2026/feb/07/revealed-how-substack-makes-money-from-hosting-nazi-newsletters

people still on substack are like "(fetches fainting couch) but mah clicks! my metrics!" You know what, fuck your clicks, fuck your metrics, and FUCK YOU. Grow a backbone, you absolute cowards. I do not, and will not, give any quarter to fundamental assaults on human dignity and civil rights.
@codinghorror Still waiting for @godpod and @mswmedia to make the switch to Ghost or some other non-Nazi platforms.

@FritzAdalis Grok? Really? Ya went there? Provide alternate citations if you like.
@codinghorror @FritzAdalis I must agree with Fritz. We don't like Substack because of all the nazis it is willing to host.
We don't like Grok because Elon Musk is also a nazi.
I was going to dig up some links, but I see that Mathew has provided numerous alternative citations below.

To be fair I don't think it's actually Grok, I just wanted to poke him a little. And I think he hates... Anthropic? So maybe Chatgpt. -

@codinghorror What I hate is when people who refuse to leave substack choose to gaslight me instead. "Are you sure it's a nazi platform? Do you have any proof?" Bitch go look it up yourself, I tried to say I'm not clicking on substack but they wanna make me question my reality. GFY

@codinghorror @FritzAdalis "alternate citations"? Alternate to what. Your generated text?
I mean, I know substack is awful I don't need any citations.

and twitter.
and facebook.
and instagram.
yeah.
And at the same time some very rich people will soon fly to the US to entertain Trump with the FIFA World Cup, while they'd literally have nothing to lose by boycotting it. -

@Netraven refuting bullshit is one of my favorite uses of LLMs. They make the work symmetric again eg Brandolini’s law. And that is not exactly chopped liver my friends.

@mathew @FritzAdalis thank you for this!

@codinghorror Related: "Single-Issue Voters."
The moment one's vote is tied to a single issue, the rest of society can go pound sand about every other right and value you're willing to sacrifice for your issue.
And it's also that your single-interest incentivizes others to be as awful and exploitative as they can be, provided they convince you they will address your single issue.n You aren't just complicit, you're an accelerant.
As it is for racism, so it is for clicks.
@raganwald my single issue is human dignity. And I will not be dissuaded under any circumstances.
