Jason Scott: “Here's some thoughts, before Patreon dies.”
Patreon signed its own death warrant when it started censoring certain artists and creatives it deemed to be &quot;unacceptable&quot;. Throughout history the most creative and interesting ideas have frequently been on the edge of what&#x27;s considered morally or socially acceptable at a given point in time (think Oscar Wilde). Yes, you will end up with some very despicable people on your site if you don&#x27;t practice censorship, but you&#x27;ll also end up with some very exciting ones, and even some that are both despicable and existing. Creativity and censorship cannot live side by side.
