Patreon is about to eat itself

Hold on a sec, that's my argument.

I'm not being clear enough.

Those who insist corporations are people, but then get grumpy when corporations act like people, are hypocrites. Or worse.

All I'm saying is that so long as corporations are people, I will continue to vote with my dollars. (Call it a reverse boycott.)

We might be on the same side here. If so, my bad.

I'm on the "no censorship by corporations" side.

As I said, if some schmuck (an individual business owner) has to bake a cake with a message he profoundly disagrees with, because not doing so violates someone else's civil rights, Patreon (an actual corporation) can suck it up and allow people to make contributions to people who use harsh language on youtube. It's really quite simple.
