In recent months, Occidental Dissent has been targeted by SJWs who are fighting “hate speech” by pressuring corporations to adopt politically correct TOS agreements to demonetize our work. We’ve been “no platformed” by Disqus, PayPal, Donately, Patreon and GoFundMe.
I haven’t been very active on YouTube, but this campaign is having the biggest impact there. YouTube stars like PewDiePie and Paul Joseph Watson have had their videos demonetized for not being “advertiser friendly.” Breitbart has lost over 90% of its advertisers because of the “Sleeping Giants” campaign. These are the same people who pressured Disqus into pulling their ads here.
I’ve said all along that this was going to be a temporary annoyance. In the early 2000s, I remember when hosting services were pressured into “no platforming” our forums for “hate speech.” This hasn’t been a problem for us in years because it created new incentives, the market responded and eventually we began hosting our own content to get around the censorship. The SPLC and ADL are dragging us through the same process again with social media platforms and crowdfunding services.
The Chapo Trap House podcast is making $75,000 a month off Patreon subscriptions. When we can create the same market incentives, there will be an explosion in Alt-Right discourse because no one will have to work anymore in shitty, underpaid jobs as a wage cuck for the conservative movement. The SJW censorship campaign will boomerang and lead to the creation of an Alt-Right Patreon.
If you are looking for a way to finance your work without SJWs crying and getting you “no platformed” for “hate speech” (this is a big deal for those of us who are content creators who have gone public with our identities), some alternatives have recently become available:
Just yesterday, I launched a campaign to help finance Occidental Dissent’s trip to the #UniteTheRight rally. In less than 24 hours, we are 86% of the way towards our goal.
Consider donating to the Occidental Dissent #UniteTheRight fundraiser.https://t.co/JoywsABglX

Charles Johnson’s WeSearchr has been used to raise $159,104 for The Daily Stormer’s legal defense fund.
Hatreon is a new Alt-Right crowdfunding service.
Pax Dickinson’s Counter.fund hasn’t launched yet. It is another one of the new alternatives that will help make us independent of “mainstream” crowdfunding services.
Eventually, I will probably end up using all of these platforms and will review them as I gain experience. In the meantime, we have raised $60 through the DonorBox platform which works like Donately or PayPal. If SJWs want to waste their time getting that shut down, they are free to do so. It is not going to have any impact on what we are doing because there will always be an alternative.
Andrew Torba @a at Gab @gab have raised over $210,000 dollars in 10 days in a crowd funding prequel to a stock offering. You have to admire Torba’s hardwork.
Correction: Gab has raised $260,000 crowd funding through an outfit called “StartEngine”. Gab the next AAPL?
The balkanization of crowdfunding will be followed by the balkanization of social media.
Gab is really coming at twitter hard. They have gotten over the tech hurdles, and it’s now easy to create a gab account.
HW, do you see Twitter and Facebook getting broken up by Federal antitrust laws or just being put out of business by competition from better social media platforms?
Things are moving too quickly for Anti-Trust laws to be enforced.
TRUMP TO LEAVE OFFICE…
Yes, believe it or not, Trump will be soon leaving office, this because of what the special investigation, by Robert Mueller is revealing.
It seems that this is not so much about Russian ‘collusion’ in our election as that Trump is Russia’s candidate, or, more specifically, that of Czar Vlad.
I’m sorry to say that, because I like Czar Vlad and I voted for Trump, but, the fact of the matter is that many many financial connections between Trump and corrupt Russian oligarchs, including massive money laundering with real estate deals in both Florida and New York, have been establisht.
I repeat, that, though Fox News has yet to cover this, this is NOT a drill.
I was wondering why, in recent weeks, Vice-President Pence had not only secured himself a lawyer, but, as well, had gone out and was raising funds for a campaign – something no sitting vice-president has ever done, much less just a few months in office.
Worse still, President Trump is investigating if he can pardon members of his family, his staff, and, even, himself!
Now we know why he has been slamming AG Sessions, in recent days – he was hoping to get Sessions to resign, so that he could appoint someone who would cover for him.
Sessions won’t do that, and I don’t blame him one bit.
This will be, with the exception of the 12th president, Zackary Taylor, the shortest administration ever.
Trump will be out of office within a year, if not sooner.
Say hello to President Mike Pence…
get back on your meds, Louise
Nobody will be pushed out of office – Trump will fire that sneaking cuckold Mueller before the summer’s over if this crap continues.
You have to remember that Trump understands that if he is removed from office, the filthy Jews are going to go after his company, his children, and will eventually try to have them all locked up on Trumped up (pun intended) charges.
It’ll be chaos before he lets that happen.
Trump removed from office? On what grounds? Because the jews and shitlibs can’t accept the fact that he defeated Granma Cankles?
I wonder if Gen’l Junius was the actual author of the comment above? It is not in keeping with his usually sober…..oh, dear….perhaps I’ve inadvertently stumbled upon a…..a moral failing of the general, namely his inability to control the intake of alcohol?
Is there no Christian temperance society in the Tarheel State that can treat the general’s shameful affliction?
Dear Spahn,
”Twas I, in the aforementioned comment. I can’t help it Trump is in deep cow dung.
I told you as it is unfolding. If you want to keep it out of your universe, as long as you can, I understand.
It’s a bit unsettling.
Pence will be president, before this time next year – this despite the fact that Trump will fire Mueller.
The dirt will keep tumbling out until even normie Trump supporters begin to hold their nose.
My hope is that he will take ‘the Trump Agenda’ more seriously than did it’s author.
Chapo Trap House? Hey Krafty, since nobody wants you here why don’t you hang out with those guys?
Hey, Spahnranch1969 are you really Charles Manson? Tell us all about it. LOL.
If nothing else, Hatreon wins for best name.
I’d like to start a crowdfunding site on that platform, and call it “Ps. 139:21.” (copyright, all rights reserved)
“Do I not hate those who hate you, LORD, and abhor those who are in rebellion against you?”
Finance the Restoration of Christendom in America… lol.
RootBocks is just running the Ignition Deck WordPress add-on and using PayPal and Stripe for processing. That makes them easy to cut off and I doubt they have the technical chops to quickly pivot to something else. Hatreon appear to be built by people who know what they’re doing.
