Patreon Bans Martin Geddes Occurred on 22 Oct 2020

Patreon banned Martin Geddes in an effort to purge QAnon-related material shortly after Media Matters published an article titled “Patreon is profiting from QAnon.” He had not posted any QAnon content on Patreon; they banned him for his content on other platforms.

And I have now been deplatformed by @Patreon too. This is full-on war folks — freedom of expression is dead on all of these platforms. An attack on my ability to fund myself and my family, too. How far will they go in this criminal enterprise to suppress truth about corruption?

He quickly jumped to AltTech and informed his followers about his SubscribeStar account.

If you wish to support me on a recurring basis, then my initial replacement for @Patreon is @SubscribeStar subscribestar.com/martingeddes. I am likely to spread my risk across multiple platforms in future. (I have expenses of around $5k/year doing this job, paid out of taxable income.)
