> The Substack is still live

This might be a bug in substack? If you go to https://substack.com/@breloomlegacy it says "Profile not found", so they might've tried to scrub it

maybe some cache ttl hasn't run out yet or something :/

I dunno, but the article continues to be live, and I can't imagine Substack doesn't know how to scrub posts from their platform if they wanted to. We'll find out eventually I guess, so I'll continue to urge people to be cautious with this and wait a bit.

It's gone from Substack now, but I agree with you that we should be cautious in assuming anything at this point.

Why would substack scrub it? I thought they were anti censorship.

I'm guessing they are afraid of inspiring copy-cats.

Not that it would stop a really determined copy-cat from taking notes from Luigi Mangione.
