To say that I am surprised doesn't even begin to cover it.

Top Patreon creators, of the 'Intellectual Dark Web,' say they're launching an alternate crowdfunding platform not 'susceptible to arbitrary censorship'

Jack Conte is a lying piece of shit. Just like most Silicon Valley CEOs.

More. Very disappointing. Sargon did not violate Patreon's TOS. They can't even explain their own bullshit:

Never heard of it. Looked it up. Didn't understand description. Won't click on it.

Why are you telling me this?

And BTW, do you think for a second that I would post questionable/dangerous links on this site? Really?

This is a real issue. Maybe you should take some time to understand why Patreon's recent behavior is concerning for conservatives.

Patreon is a way for people to give money to people who create content on the Internet. The most common place is Youtube, but a lot of podcasts also have subscribers that pay them via Patreon.

A lot of Conservatives with Conservative Youtube channels make their livings from Patreon donations.

Edit: A good example of Patreon's hypocirsy is that their biggest Patreon is a podcast put on by some serious low life communists called Chapo Trap House. One of the Chapo geniuses told somebody on their podcast to go kill themself for supporting Democrats. This is absolutely a violation of Patreon's terms of service, but the Chapo assholes get away with it.

Tim Pool has been following the story closely:

@Timcast on Twitter.

Tim Pool on YouTube.

As much as it pains me unless these guys are regulated it will only get worse and will continue to be leftist controlled.
Until there is a balance of competition these liberal agenda promoters will shape the landscape in a bad way.

watching the video and listening to that blither by Tim Cook. Holy crap - what an asshole

the only way this will ever get fixed, is to have your base outside the sphere of influence of California and its libtard sycophants

start in a place that values conservatism and you won't end up with this shit show

ever notice how almost all of them originate in either California, NY or Massachusetts?

That's a good start !

I first came across Patroen about 6 months ago of a non political website and never new about their political purging...

I have not heard about Sargon either but will be looking for him down the road.
Thanks.

I'm mobile and cannot view the videos. Cliff Notes please?

Patreon is the new home of thousands of internet "sex workers". I would imagine.

When you have the entire Silicon Valley deep rooted in the liberal ideology Google, Microsoft, Apple, PayPal, that can and has limited access to a conservative or even a true open platform site it truly will be an uphill battle.

Since Sargon and others have not violated the TOS at Patreon and the removal of their pages has effected their income I would think they have grounds for a class action lawsuit.

Sam Harris was the 13th ranked "creator" on Patreon, and he's left. He already mostly tries to raise funds via his own website.

Sword & Scale (a crime podcast) is ranked #5, and claiming to be ready to jump ship to the new platform Jordan Peterson (#20) is working on.

Hopefully what Jordan and Dave are working on is successful, no reason for it not to be.

As Patreon is finding out, when you piss off customers they dump you and don't buy your product. Their fast rise had the internal SJW's think they were insulated from this business fact.

I tried switching to subscribestar, but then paypal decided to pull the plug and subscribestar is having trouble finding a credit card processor. So the left is attacking from all directions. Very disturbing.
