I cannot stress enough that I think your second bullet is missing the point by a country mile. The Substack post is specifically talking about Nazi viewpoints, not "bad" viewpoints for some shifting definition of bad. And because we're talking about Nazi views, I think your first bullet then falls apart, too. There's no new scrutiny required for Nazi views because we've already done that work.

Additionally, Substack is allowing the monetization of (and thus profiting from) Nazi viewpoints. That's more than "shining a light on it".

Ok, so play along for a minute: what should Substack's policy about Nazi stuff be, specifically? If you were tasked with defining their policy on just this one subject matter, what would you come up with?

Demonetize them. Their only benefit is to publish their work, nothing more.

That would not stop freedom of speech, but I can’t understand why you would pay them for their objectionable and vile views.
