Then They Came For SubscribeStar
So people left Patreon to go to this place after Patreon got rid of Sargon. SJW's then went to SubscribeStar to whine at them and they disabled paypal payouts.
Sounds bad, right? Buuuut SubscribeStar is NOT backing down, which is good news. This is the message the company left for Sargon in the comments of his video(the comment is now pinned to the top):
"Dear friends. We are here now not to tell you that “we are sorry but they made us to shut our shop down and now we are going to cry ourselves to sleep goodbye”.
Just the opposite - we are fighting back and integrating new unbiased and predictable processors that will allow us to grow with you. This takes time, we estimate anywhere between 2 and 3 weeks from start to finish. This may require us to extensively travel across the globe for the best possible solution.
Stars, you have to know - all your money were successfully rescued from the PayPal and will be paid out to you in a timely manner. We had less luck with Stripe, but it all manageable.

Assuming this is legit...it's good news. And we're clearly seeing why attitudes like "just go use a different platform or service" are downright silly. SJW's will just go target the new place you decide to use.
EDIT: Yeah, seems legit...their website says something similar. So good for them, okay.
This is a great article about modern day racism and about how the left has tried to redefine what it is to be racist and about how they make excuses for their own racism:
Some of the good points I think it makes:
This is in reference to Sarah Jeong(she is used as an example a lot in the article), the racist woman the New York Times hired(and yes she IS racist)
"The tone of disappointed forbearance with a misguided employee doesn’t allay the suspicion that the Times kinda does condone and accept Jeong’s rhetoric. The paper doesn’t equivocate or hesitate when it really can’t abide one of its employee’s social media posts. Earlier this year the Times, upon discovering that she had previously written racist and homophobic tweets, fired technology journalist Quinn Norton from its editorial page during her first day on the payroll. Norton’s claim that she had simply used the argot of the people she debated on Twitter—an excuse very similar to Jeong’s—didn’t save her job."
Another good point:
"In the same spirit, the Washington Post’s Erik Wemple recently declared that it was racist for Tucker Carlson of Fox News to cast doubt on the proposition that diversity is good—so good that we must not even ask whether it entails costs that should be weighed against its benefits. “How, precisely, is diversity our strength?” Carlson asked on air in September 2018. “Can you think of other institutions, such as marriage or military units, in which the less people have in common, the more cohesive they are?”
Wemple might have noted that, around the world, there are diverse beliefs about diversity: Japan, for example, is famous for its commitment to ethnic and cultural homogeneity. As a matter of conviction and circumstance, America has always placed a higher value on heterogeneity, but even America emphasized the assimilation of immigrants in a “melting pot.” Instead, Wemple’s indictment boiled down to the claim that Carlson “sticks up for white people all the time on his [television] program, in ways that just so happen to appeal to racists.” QED, he is himself a racist, or at least his questioning of diversity is an expression of racism.
Such uses of “racist” are not intended to shed light, guide the perplexed, or persuade the undecided. They are, rather, allegations meant to delegitimize political opponents, devices to shut down debate rather than efforts to win it."
^The last two sentences are especially a BINGO. Times a thousand.
This is also spot on:
"Nevertheless, in the eyes of social justice leftists, who are coming to dominate American liberalism’s thoughts, words, and deeds, Carlson is a racist for questioning diversity, but Sarah Jeong is not a racist—is, indeed, an anti-racist—for repeatedly disparaging white people. Despite the fact that hostile thoughts and sentiments about other groups are central to dictionaries’ definitions of racism, Jamelle Bouie pronounces the presence or absence of these attitudes irrelevant to the question of whether a person is a racist."
Sadly this is something some people in this country believe. I'm talking actual grown ass adults believe this:
"In short, those people belonging to any non-white group cannot possibly be racist toward whites, while white Americans are unique in their capacity to be guilty of racism. "
More spot on points:
"A good place to begin evaluating the social justice Left’s redefinition of racism is to point out that power is far too variegated and complex to align so neatly with a simple racial hierarchy. By any measure, a Korean-American journalist with a J.D. from Harvard, who joins the editorial board of one of the world’s most influential media outlets, is a powerful person. The same cannot be said of the online adversaries who trolled her, or the white working-class Trump voters she berated as “literal Nazis.” Jeong, like the social justice leftists who deride the idea that her anti-white tweets were racist, wants things both ways, to exercise power while retaining the moral authority and expressive latitude that come from claiming oppression.
An unemployed factory worker in the Rust Belt, by contrast, is obliged by his vast white privilege to self-censor constantly, lest some unguarded remark betray his bigotry and fortify the power structure that victimizes non-whites. If he proves too obtuse to recognize this duty, or too hateful to discharge it, that’s only further proof of racism—his and America’s."
One final thing I'll post from it that I liked:
"More generally, tendentiousness and bad faith pervade the effort to replace the old understanding of racism with the new one. It is a renunciation of intellectual honesty and responsibility to posit that someone’s words and beliefs should be evaluated, not according to whether they are factually accurate, logically sound, or morally admirable but, instead, on the basis of whether the person putting forward the idea is privileged or oppressed."
Boooooooooom, spot on.

This is pretty cool. Demonstrates that the option to take your business elsewhere is clearly there. Don't like Twitter's stupid bias? Make your own Twitter but better.
Don't like Patreon's shitty bias? Go to SubscribeStar and thrive.

Read about this. How very stupid of the media to try and twist this into another anti-Trump thing.
Still terrible that she died. It's the father's fault she died.
