American neo-Nazis point to Trump’s rhetoric — his attacks on diversity initiatives, his hard-line stance on immigration and his invocation of "Western values” — as driving a surge in interest and recruitment. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/08/11/world/politics/american-nazis-aryan-freedom-network-trump/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #nazis #wwii #adolfhitler #holocaust #us #donaldtrump #trade #tariffs #republicans #hatespeech #discrimination #aryanfreedomnetwork #daltonhenrystout

🧡 Thank you for doing your part in reporting unacceptable online content! That is more than most folks would do.

(I work for a NGO in the US. We prevent violence against adolescents. Online content causes harm in many ways.)

Hopefully Substack has taken appropriate action by now.

If not, there might be some other options for reporting the content. This guidance from the Let's STOP Hate Speech group, funded by the EU might be helpful:

Armin Wolf wurde auf X mit extrem beleidigenden und strafbaren Kommentaren konfrontiert. Trotz seiner Bemühungen, rechtlich gegen diese Kommentare vorzugehen, scheiterten alle Versuche, die Kommentare zu löschen oder die Identität des Posters herauszufinden. X weigerte sich, die Daten herauszugeben, und die Behörden fühlten sich nicht zuständig. Selbst der Digital Services Act (DSA) konnte nicht helfen. Wolfs Fazit ist, dass X ein „rechtsfreier Raum“ ist, in dem Gesetze nicht gelten und Hasskommentare ungestraft bleiben.

Hate-speech designed by Meta and X to undermine German election
https://www.euractiv.com/section/tech/news/hate-speech-failures-by-meta-and-x-undermine-german-election/

"The ads contained calls for the imprisonment and gassing of immigrants, burning of mosques with dehumanising speech, and equated immigrants to animals and pathogens."
