@I AM ERROR
Uhm, they actually have done 2 crackdowns on adult content already

2019-01-20 11:20:59 UTC  

and a ton of people have either left, going to leave, set up shop elsewhere just in case OR have serious issue with this sudden censorship on their asses.

2019-01-20 11:22:41 UTC  

Nobody sits there and is enjoying watching their pledges go down or their page suspended until they comply with the "trust and safety council's" vague "rules".
I know several of these people that seen their pages removed and had to keep removing posts with no concrete direction nor guidance from patreon.

2019-01-20 12:57:38 UTC  

Well you have to remember accusations go on page 1 headlines, retractions and corrections go on page 6 big things sell papers, and it is the ideology that news has functioned under for a long time now.

2019-01-20 17:38:16 UTC  

@tritrium adult content is still a quarter of their (public) pledges. they might have had 2 crackdowns on it, does not change the current state of it.

2019-01-20 17:39:07 UTC  

no but im just saying its the same feeling going around in these circles in regards to patreon as with the political side of things

2019-01-20 18:49:27 UTC  

i'm sure that's true but from what can tell most people leaving because of the sargon incident are more in the political realm. if there is a viable alternative for adult content and those creators leave en masse - that is when patreon will have a problem.

2019-01-20 18:51:17 UTC  

the lack of adult content killed betamax after all 😉

2019-01-20 19:27:58 UTC  

Well there is that.
And then there are active attempts to sanitize (which is what theyre doing) their own platform in regards to adult content.
Its not so much about people leaving like with sargon n co, its more about being forced out by banning people over patron only posts.
You cant post any nudity public on patron these days, but theyre going further by taking issue with anything you post privately aka patron only as well.
Your adult content is fine as long as its in line with the personal morals of that trust and safety council, hence a ton of people want to leave.

Which channel is best for discussing one of Tim's videos. I noticed something BIG on one of his videos that he missed. LOL

2019-01-23 06:39:32 UTC  

<#463054787336732683> or <#463068752725016579>

2019-01-23 06:39:37 UTC  

I'd use general

2019-01-23 10:49:42 UTC  

Does anyone have the sauce of the 2hr covington livestream? Google is being a frosty bitch

2019-01-23 15:12:15 UTC  

One of Tim's vids have a link to it @grinderxxl

2019-01-23 16:34:45 UTC  

the "covington controversy" bs is actually a joke tbh

2019-01-23 16:35:16 UTC  

i seriously feel sorry for the kid and his family

2019-01-23 16:35:29 UTC  

its disgusting that people would sened death threats towards a kid

2019-01-23 16:35:47 UTC  

no matter what your political veiwpoint and no matter their political veiwpoint its actually just fucking disgusting

2019-01-23 16:35:48 UTC  

This isn't the only instance of fake news reaching millions but the retraction reaching far less

2019-01-23 16:36:04 UTC  

but it is the most defining, at least so far

2019-01-23 16:36:19 UTC  

of course they dont want to admit they did wrong on a large scale

2019-01-23 16:36:25 UTC  

that would prove trump is right

2019-01-23 16:36:29 UTC  

they are all full of horse shit

2019-01-23 16:36:38 UTC  

100s of fake news then retraction stories about trump, frequently posted to r/politics

2019-01-23 16:36:46 UTC  

and the anti trump delerium is all that makes them money at this point

2019-01-23 16:37:00 UTC  

and thats going to fail because its all millenials who are the activists

2019-01-23 16:37:03 UTC  

Yeah as tim commonly references the Trump Bump

2019-01-23 16:37:26 UTC  

gen z are sat here laughing at this shit because thats all we can do

2019-01-23 16:37:30 UTC  

I'm starting to see a lot of people waking up though

2019-01-23 16:37:34 UTC  

we cant even vote yet

2019-01-23 16:38:11 UTC  

tbh i feel like trump should start paying the washington post

2019-01-23 16:38:23 UTC  

because at this point they are his re election campaign

2019-01-23 16:38:41 UTC  

@BurtY I'm guessing you're in high school currently?

2019-01-23 16:38:46 UTC  

im not american

2019-01-23 16:39:04 UTC  

however bits of your retarded ass identity politics leak across

2019-01-23 16:39:17 UTC  

and things that happen in america impact most of the english speaking world

2019-01-23 16:39:38 UTC  

for example have you ever heard of rememberence day where you wear a red poppy in memory of fallen british soldiers

2019-01-23 16:39:52 UTC  

Yeah, I actually lived in England for a few years when I was younger

2019-01-23 16:39:54 UTC  

aparently that is racist and we should wear a white poppy to remember all soldiers that have fallen ever

2019-01-23 16:40:02 UTC  

it was on the news this year

2019-01-23 16:40:09 UTC  

Are you shitting me?
