Wow - I though I had seen it all..... it's not JUST Youtube, Facebook, And Twitter that are following orders and cracking down on free speech and dissenting (see - free thinking) points of view.....
Not only has youtube de-monetized pretty much anyone with any alternative (see non main stream) point of view....
Now they are starting to demonetize people on patreon, too.
REALLY???
Once again - this is an open call to ALL content creators to wake up and smell the coffee..... they are coming after ALL of us.
If you are only on youtube, get your butt over on steemit where the cabal tentacles do not reach
.....and make your account over on onG.Social where you will NOT be censored..... This battle is heating up and need to build up the alternative platforms sooner rather than later.
Is there Patron Alternatives out there? Has anyone started developing a crypto version of Patreon yet?
I think it's time....
Censorship is now taking place all over the USA and across western countries and media outlets. We need to support people like Laura who have a right to be heard and paid for her work. Fascism is fast creeping into the United States and the public is asleep at the wheel. I have a post up today demonstrating a number of forms of Facebook and Google censorship that everyone should be aware of in order to understand the depth of the censorship that is taking place. We are now in a fight for our freedom to express ourselves and be rewarded for our hard won efforts. People need to wake up to this harsh reality. The USA we once knew is changing fast.....for the worse. https://steemit.com/news/@clarityofsignal/big-brother-watching-huge-compendium-of-screenshots-highlight-facebook-and-other-forms-of-censorship-in-new-age-of-internet

We can change it back just as fast. We have the Presidency. That's a good start. Expect a anti-leftist, anti-feminist revolution soon. Western folk are finally starting to wake up.

Lauren got treated almost as badly when she made her first, and still last, post on Steemit. Bunch of self-important little steemit-bitches flagged it to hell so she got no payout from it.

The account looked very fake and that's why it got down voted like hell. Steemit has verification, so she could have used that if it were actually her.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
She got downvoted because she made no responses or proof of identity. Identity theft is a dangerous thing and since 'she' hasn't made any effort, it's likely it's fake

How much time do you think Lauren has to respond to nobodies on the internet?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Apparently less than she should have made in order to succeed on Steemit. The nobodies apparently became somebodies when they blocked her payout.
As @mobbs said identity theft is a dangerous thing and the community essentially showed her that famous or not, ESPECIALLY famous rather, everybody should be held to the same standard.
I wasn't one of these people, I did not even know who she was until steemit, but proof of identity for a known personality isn't that big of an ask, and she could have easily complied.

I am convinced it wasnt her. He/she couldn't comply because he/she wasnt her
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Probably enough time to post more than one video without any introduction, unrelated to the site or anything in the last two months. If she made an account, realised she didn't have time or it wasn't for her and left, then what does it matter?
She didn't confirm her identity, so it's considered a fake account until noted otherwise. That's how it works

I do think more positive about steemit.com after your article. In case of YouTube i know that a lot of big company's complaint to YouTube that their adverts were shown besides "controversial" or rassistic content and therefore withdrawn their campaigns. Advertising on YT is algorythm based, i guess what you described is yt's solution to solve this.

Steemit it the answer. Ever since Google took over Youtube it has been trending Leftist topics and shutting down or demonetizing alt right and other right wing material. Spread the word. Let's get everyone to switch over to Steemit.
I think Steem it could change the interface a bit. Just copy youtube and with more videos, less articles. Most people don't generally want to read essays. They can watch the videos and comment just like YT but without the leftist bias and censorship.

This move from Patreon should morph into their downfall.
While I don't agree with everything Lauren has to say, she has the right to say it. She has done nothing wrong and Patreon of course does the shitty move most social media platform do and silence dissent. Meanwhile Antifa, an actual terrorist group that violently attacks people and destroys property are allowed to thrive.

ALWAYS REMEMBER
in America, you have freedom of speech and that is your right NOONE can take that away from you.
BUT
THE SECOND YOU GO ON A WEBSITE AND SIGN THE
TERMS OF AGREEMENT
you sign your rights away because if you know how most websites work they can take you down at any time if they choose too because they are a private organisation and don't need a reason to keep you on the website.
It's like you step into their country to do business connect with fans and so on accept money
but if they feel at any time you are making them upset or breaking any rules they have the right to either warn you to suspend you for a time or completely kick you out of their country....
so don't worry they are not coming for everyone just those of you who go against the TOS

Man, that's sad @sashadaygame! I have a Patreon and for most of 2015 that was what I hoped would free me from the plights of being a poor freelance artist. I still make about $500/mo on there for my photography, but I make so much more on Steemit for the same content, and it's decentralized.
