"please don't understand, or maybe you should, we're not going to tell you either way unless you are gender fluid and have tits for nuts. Also, please be sure that you review our un-banned patreon accounts for examples of what is deemed acceptable content and post accordingly. Failure to do so will result in a JDAM-equipped munition through your roof or even a simple warning, and that is up to us to decide and will be received without warning, have a nice day!"

what I got from that video was that being a successful creator with Patreon could be like ending up as a character in the movie SAW

2018-12-23 06:15:12 UTC  

I bet she had that super annoying California UpTalk accent

2018-12-23 06:15:33 UTC  

yeah, so this scared the shit out of me and i don't even have a Patreon account

2018-12-23 06:17:44 UTC  

my prediction is that all right-leaning political content creators will be dealing solely in crypto within 10 years

2018-12-23 06:18:29 UTC  

Patreon will be killed, subscribestar will be killed and whatever Jordan Peterson is coming up with will be killed

2018-12-23 06:19:13 UTC  

Yeah, but the one Peterson is working on will unveil who's really behind the deplatforming

2018-12-23 06:19:15 UTC  

Probably gonna happen

2018-12-23 06:19:41 UTC  

On the other hand, Jordan isn't afraid of bringing lawyers into this

2018-12-23 06:19:45 UTC  

won't matter, that will be a sock puppet at best

2018-12-23 06:20:12 UTC  

I.... don't know what you're saying but okay

2018-12-23 06:20:37 UTC  

There's literally *one* barrier at this new level, and that is Visa/MasterCard

2018-12-23 06:20:41 UTC  

meaning whoever gets outed as being the deplatformer will be no one of consequence

2018-12-23 06:21:17 UTC  

I guess you haven't heard how far he wants to go with it

2018-12-23 06:21:26 UTC  

how far ?

2018-12-23 06:21:38 UTC  

Like, replacing stripe/Paypal

2018-12-23 06:21:46 UTC  

All DIY in house

2018-12-23 06:22:30 UTC  

But guess who is friends with the Intellectual Dark web? <:pepe_smug:378719408341909506>

2018-12-23 06:22:41 UTC  

who

2018-12-23 06:22:52 UTC  

Peter Thiel, the original creator of PayPal

2018-12-23 06:24:07 UTC  

will probably be crypto friendly then

2018-12-23 06:26:42 UTC  

well, whatever it ends up being, if it's tied in any way to the traditional banks and payment processors then it won't work

2018-12-23 06:27:25 UTC  

Thing is, the higher up you go, the more regulation you have. Eventually you reach a point where the company has no choice but to service you

2018-12-23 06:27:45 UTC  

one problem I could see then would be the site getting gabbed

2018-12-23 06:28:24 UTC  

it would have to be soup-to-nuts DIY from the ground up like 1998 style shit

2018-12-23 06:28:52 UTC  

Or exist entirely on the blockchain/hyperchain

2018-12-23 06:30:23 UTC  

right, maybe a use-case for storj or something

2018-12-23 06:35:25 UTC  

Or there's the 'new' internet

2018-12-23 06:35:37 UTC  

I still don't know how it's used

2018-12-23 06:35:45 UTC  

I should probably read more about that

2018-12-23 06:35:55 UTC  

I heard of it, but I'm with you - no idea how it's used

2018-12-23 06:37:07 UTC  

I think all user data is linked to the user account, which is singular/universal across all sites, and your account is 'hosted' by a server which serves your data on request of a particular site

2018-12-23 06:37:57 UTC  

So basically, cloud based meme folders, where you hotlink your stuff instead of uploading it

2018-12-23 06:38:49 UTC  

not sure how i feel about the singular/universal part

2018-12-23 06:39:11 UTC  

It's not like a replacement

2018-12-23 06:39:41 UTC  

Imagine like the split between image boards and social media

2018-12-23 06:39:57 UTC  

But platforms can't really get rid of you anymore

2018-12-23 06:40:54 UTC  

Just 'ban' you, but they have no inherent advantage of owning a database to control, so there's more competition of platforms

2018-12-23 06:41:53 UTC  

oh that would definitely be a no-no for the elites

2018-12-23 06:42:44 UTC  

I think Sargon's experience with Patreon might be an indicator that they only let you live as long as you aren't big enough to be a threat - once you cross that line you're done
