it started with mastercard freezing wikileaks in 2011.
Wikileaks was forced to switch over to bitcoin and made millions.
Everybody should be like wikileaks.
USD is a Democrat controlled sinking house of cards
I'm more surprised to learn that Paypal hadn't already done so years ago.
Rebel news has been rubbish since the big guys left years ago, though that message sucks, they'd deserve at least an appeal for being such a big client.
Umm what? Is this a shill account? What big guys left, and why is it "rubbish" now? Who says Rubbish anyway? Are you even Canadian?
Does he need to be Canadian to have an opinion on Rebel News? Ezra Levant is not an ethical man.
And if you had been paying attention during the Lauren Southern/Tommy Robinson days, you'd know why.
I was paying attention to the Tommy Robinson days, and Ezra was one of the most steadfast allies of him, and even chastised Gavin McInnes for missing any Tommy Robinson related stuff and told him to make sure he supports him.
So I don't really know what you mean by this. Maybe you could explain it, instead of just alluding to it.
Ezra was all about collecting email addresses and then extracting money through rebelnews; that was the actual purpose of the website to dun the public for money and more money to support his aims. And he has been involved in other questionable financial dealings.
Rebel news ceased to exist after all that shit went down, I have been astounded he has been able to bring it back to life again because his reputation was in tatters.
What are you talking about? When did this happen? I've been watching Rebel on YouTube for a long time. Back when they used to have like no subscribers. I don't remember anything that you're talking about, and you're not being specific.
Ezra sets up websites for donations for a million different causes. But he follows through though. He even goes to court and wins pretty frequently. What is shady about this? It's a public facing website where people choose whether they want to donate or not.
You're providing zero evidence of anything, and not even being specific enough to be argued with.
I didn't come here to argue with you, provide evidence, or dig up old youtube videos that are probably long gone.
I believe Ezra deleted a lot of the videos on their old channel very quickly, and I have no idea where to find that slapshot expose that the hot blonde Brit guy did on the Tommy Robinson swindle.
It all fell apart and Ezra ~shut the channel down~ .... and then it was reborn.
I'm not digging through the internet to re-live five years ago.
Look, you think whatever you want. I remember how it went down.
Well then don't leave comments? I didn't come and find you and start telling you to provide evidence. You came and left comments making claims about people I've followed for years. And you don't seem to have actually followed them or know anything about it. It sounds like you're telling me something you read or heard from someone else. I don't remember any of this and my experience is the exact opposite of what you're saying. Ezra was one of very few who steadfastly supported Tommy.
Also Faith Goldy.
I liked her better than Southern, she was a pistol. What's FG doing these days?
Lauren southern, gavin mcinnes, faith goldy... Even that one skinny black guy that was pretty cool was gone for a few years now.
I tried looking back and all they do now is shill for donations.
Hang in there, Rebel! BTW, I cancelled my Paypal account a long time ago because of their lack of ethics. Fuck 'em.
Just make your own
payment processorbanksupreme courtcountryplanetparallel universeHuh, who owns all the financial institutions and really hates free speech?
Time for all who have a PayPal account to CANCEL ALL SERVICES WITH THEM BEFORE THEY EMPTY OUT OUR ACCOUNTS. ALSO, DO NOT LEAVE ANY FUNDS IN ANY OF THE BANKS RIGHT NOW. THEY CHARGE US TO USE THEM, BUT WHEN WE GIVE THEM OUR CASH TO HOLD, THEY IMMEDIATELY USE IT IN FORGET INVESTING FOR THEM TO MAKE MONEY. FROM WHERE I SIT, THEY OWE US MILLIONS.
I firmly believe that Rebel News is controlled opposition, in a similar vein as Fox News. They are meant to play the bad guy for the establishment and draw support from dissidents, but overall they will do nothing that actually threatens or harms the regime. They might have individual editors or people who have done good work, but I have zero faith in the management.
What do you expect them to do, exactly? They're just a media outlet and they've yet to cuck out like Fox News has on occassion, at least from what I've seen
I don't expect them to do anything, like I said I do not believe they will do any real resistance to the people in power. If any news organization had legitimate cause they would be supporting white people explicitly. Any organization that is not chiefly pro-white will be supporting anti-white causes.
You are sliding into a purity spiral and it’s not helpful. Would you say Tucker Carlson is “pro white?” Those on the left and the establishment would say yes, while most on the right would say no. However, these type of purity tests make it easy for “consensus cracking” by bad faith actors, push divisions, polarize people, and marginalize good faith actors.
Being "pro-white" is moronic, and you're taking the bait by advocating for it. Its literally exactly what the feds want in order to justify their NaziKKK narrative and lock us down even harder, with OTHER WHITES approving.
A much stronger position is to support freedom of association (something we already had before the civil rights movement) and guarantee it for everyone. That will make it harder to call us racists and plus we can tell white leftists to fuck off as well.
When it comes to living beings, everything must be looked at from the perspective of genetics first and foremost. Without genetics life would not exist. Everything a living being does has a genetic and biological foundation.
No matter what you do, you will be considered racist and evil for standing against equality. Trump was vilified for trying to reform the system. Republicans or conservatives will be vilified for not bending over backwards hard enough as well.
People must stand up for their inner nature. They must take pride in who they are, or else they will never be able to accomplish anything of lasting value.
I do not disgaree in any way. However, I think its a self-destructive position to take because of the two reasons I outlined above (Plays into the globalists hands, and they have all the power right now + we lose all our moderate and non-white allies). The globalists have all the cards and its their main thing they're counting on to fuck us.
The beauty of supporting Free Association (quick disclaimer: yes i am libertarian/ancap) is it puts them on the defensive. It'll be easy to make the normies be OK with gulag'ing us if we're unabashed WS, but will make them out to be the bad guy if we take the position of "let me decide my own fate, im not hurting anyone" and they still wanna tread. Yes they're going to still call us racists regardless, but now it will be from a much weaker, more easily parried position.
They may have thought it worth doing despite knowing they will get banned sooner or later. Like if it works for a while, it.... works for a while. Which may be better than nothing.
