"D'Nations!"

Laugh at this.

Counter-Currents built up a large number of dedicated monthly donors over our first seven years online, only to lose them when PayPal deplatformed us after Unite the Right in Charlottesville.

Unite the Right: The Big Tent strategy in action!

We then slowly built up a new set of monthly donors on Stripe, until they deplaformed us in 2019.

A pattern emerges.

Then we built up another list of monthly donors, only to be deplatformed again a few months later in 2019.

They learn nothing. No contingency planning, and no attempt to anticipate the deplatforming and adopt a radically different model of panhandling.

After the PayPal deplatforming, we lost a substantial number of donors — most of them giving small amounts — who never signed up for Stripe. After the Stripe deplatforming, we lost a substantial number of donors as well, although not much time passed before we were deplatformed again.

Why change with so much success?

At this point, Counter-Currents has only about 20% of the number of monthly donors that we had at our peak. Our enemies, I am sure, are rubbing their hands together in glee, since deplatforming works.

Being an affirmative action “leader” with zero imagination and a complete lack of forethought does not work.

Of course, we are still in business. But Andrew Anglin’s recent announcement that he has had to lay off his writing staff is a very bad sign.

God forbid that people produce content for free, like the blog you are currently reading.

It is a wakeup call here at Counter-Currents. We need to get serious about getting our monthly donors back.

Until now, it was like, you know, real unserious and casual and all.

Folks, if you were a monthly donor in the past, now is the time to rejoin us.

“Trevor Lynch” needs to buy some more movie tickets.

If you were thinking of becoming a monthly donor, now is the time to commit.

To be a fool.

Some of you might be tired of all the deplatforming and are just waiting for a stable solution before you get back in the game. Well, we do have a new payment processor. 

"Oh no, wait, we just got deplatformed again…."

But in truth, nothing is stable in this world, and to survive we need to adapt. 

Which they have not yet attempted to do, you’ll notice.

We need to make up our minds to move quickly from one processor or platform to another.

That’s the solution!  Serial deplatforming!

Some of you might be thinking that your monthly donation did not make a difference. And if you were the only one thinking that, you might be right. But a lot of people are apparently thinking that way, so it makes a big difference.

Who’s gonna pay for the airline and movie tickets?

Some of you might be thinking that other people will take care of the monthly donations, so you don’t need to bother. But a lot of other people are thinking the same thing, so you do need to bother.

Pay up, suckers.

Some people were willing to help when it was convenient. Now that the revolution…

Counter-Currents being a tax-exempt organization, through the auspices of the federal government, is the vanguard of the revolution! File those Form 990s, all you underground guerillas!

…no longer takes PayPal, they are going to buy stuff on Ebay instead. We need more dedicated people like you to take their place.

Send in dem shekels!

Make today the day that you start — or resume — making a monthly donation to Counter-Currents. There are several ways you can help out.

Fund the Mannerbund!

And as regards that “sincere man of genuine greatness” –

I really have to respect Andy Ngo for exposing Antifa for what it is. It is truly a terrorist organization. I only hope that Trump will have the courage to crack down on their activities.

Hopefully he will hit them hard after the election!

Sure he will!  By the way, I have a bridge to sell you that connects Manhattan to Brooklyn. By the way, how’d that Trump Super Bowl commercial do? After all, pandering to Negroes is exactly what the base voted for, right?  That’ll fire ‘em all up for November!  All of Roissy’s Amish will be jumpin’ in those horse-and-buggies and headin’ to the polls!

In response to a reasonable “anti-Semitic” Counter-Currents comment about the Jew Hazony, Johnson writes:

There’s a strong whiff of the paranoid style in your writing.

And he’s “crazy and bitter,” too!  

Yeah, Greg, there’s a strong whiff of the rent-seeking grifting style in YOUR writing.  Let’s not be too suspicious about rightist Jews, eh?  After all, we can’t look too deeply at so-called “White nationalists” who write for Unz, eh?

The murder continues.

HBD marches on.  But, alas for the White Knighters, note this:

Please look at the test question below. Although you’d think anyone capable of human speech would get it right, Dr. Murray tells us that fully 40 percent of college women get it wrong.

Der Female, Der Female, Der Female marches on!

Joan of Arc!  Joan of Arc!  Milady’s yeast infection for a Joan of Arc!
