I'm bothered by Substack's platforming of fascists, but I think the majority of its top political newsletters are left-leaning. It's a funding and dissemination structure for independent writing, and it's an effective one. The main alternative people suggest, Ghost, doesn't have content restrictions either it appears and also provides a platform to anyone willing to use its software.

It is the most conscious expression of society’s spontaneous movement toward the continuous improvement of living conditions and social relations… Direct action from below and self-organisation are the strategies of anarchism. Criminalising them is equivalent to depriving the anarchist movement of the tools indispensable to the realisation of its ideal. The anarchist ideal aims to change the way of life in society, to establish relationships of love and solidarity among people, to achieve full material, moral, and intellectual development, not for a given social class, but for all people—and this cannot be imposed by force, but can arise from the progressive growth of collective consciousness and be achieved with the agreement of society.” #antifa #anarchism #directaction https://freedomnews.org.uk/2026/02/18/the-terrorism-trap/ npub1f623yk2qz2nlu6t2xllpl8s4q3lta4re9twd03ewca9hkvqlt8sq7rgv5c Rita, antifascist 🏴🦯🦯🦯 Prairieland case demonstrates how Trump’s DOJ is experimenting with using the ‘Antifa’ label as a catchall designation. the term “enterprise’ here is crucial in that it’s been commonly deployed under the RICO Act giving prosecutors a wider berth to charge any defendants by mere association. #Prairieland #RICO npub1f623yk2qz2nlu6t2xllpl8s4q3lta4re9twd03ewca9hkvqlt8sq7rgv5c Rita, antifascist 🏴🦯🦯🦯 @nprofile…f0qh @nprofile…fjwu exactly npub1f623yk2qz2nlu6t2xllpl8s4q3lta4re9twd03ewca9hkvqlt8sq7rgv5c Rita, antifascist 🏴🦯🦯🦯 The following is a statement from Houston’s Screwston Antifascist Committee: “Our organization is being targeted by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton who, on Friday, February 6th, released a public statement calling us ‘deranged traitors’ and terrorists, citing Trump’s prior executive order to designate all Antifa groups as terrorist organizations… This investigation by Paxton is a blatant act of intimidation against progressive and leftist organizations by the far right…by asserting that Screwston Antifascist Committee (“SAFC”) is an ‘unincorporated nonprofit’ which is defined as “any group of 3 or more who are together for a common cause or goal”. #Texas #antifa #screwston https://organisemagazine.org.uk/2026/02/19/texas-attorney-general-ken-paxton-targets-screwston-anti-fascists-for-investigation/ npub1f623yk2qz2nlu6t2xllpl8s4q3lta4re9twd03ewca9hkvqlt8sq7rgv5c Rita, antifascist 🏴🦯🦯🦯 “The judge has officially declared a mistrial due to the defense lawyer's shirt depicting Jesse Jackson.
