And with that, the overton window moved just a bit on Substack. Expect it to move further in the future.

Worse, the people who want more control and approval over what content is presented now have a wedge for future efforts.

Even on 4chan there are unacceptable opinions. I hate 4chan, because it's unusable with its crazy captchas. Perhaps the trick is to pay for an account, but I don't know. I did post a small number of messages some years ago, but it was so much effort that I'd rather just not use the site at all. I don't understand why it is that popular, but perhaps it's just that everyone thought $20 for an account was a fair price.

Someday there will be a movie, The Book of Adolf.

Communists still free to deny the Holodomor though.

It’s astonishingly shocking that there is a communist and socialist subreddit on Reddit but no Nazi subreddit (Not that I want it) even thought the what the Soviets did was much worse than the Nazis.

The Nazis lost the war; that's mostly what they did wrong, since the prosecution of Jews was popular way before that. Eugenics was an American idea. Not sure what Hitler came up with that was an actually novel idea at the time. AFAIK, Hitler was too stupid (just an idiotic failed painter and low ranking soldier) to think of anything new.

Good talker, high intellect but blind spots extraordinaire. One of his generals drew two lines on a map, one line connecting Berlin and Leningrad, the other line connecting Berlin and Stalingrad. He pointed out how the lines got further and further apart and the area was just too immense. Hitler ignored him.

But who watches the watchmen?

Nobody, of course, we're just supposed to blindly trust that they won't fuck us over :D.
