I absolutely hate this shit. They use their censorship to shift the overton window.
I'm not super familiar with VDARE, but I've seen it with other things, like when they banned Alex Jones, or Red Ice, or American Renaissance. Yes, all of those were outside the window, but they weren't extreme like they were painted. Alex Jones comes off as crazy, the other two are explicitly pro-White. But they weren't preaching hate, they were charismatic (that's a problem), and it was generally pretty lighthearted, but they got painted as complete extremists and excised from the discourse.
Again, not really familiar with them, but VDARE seems even less spicy than those other channels. Unapproved opinions, though, I suppose.
