Many people are now becoming aware of a shift in the political effort to shut down speech. The Conservative Treehouse has been notified our “content” is not permissible, and after ten years we are kicked-out of WordPress/Automatic hosting services. Some people asked if we would inquire about the specific ‘terms of service‘ that we violated, so I did.
Here is the direct response from WordPress/Automattic (rec’d 6:48pm ET this evening):
No specific violation is noted. Below is the “Prohibited Content under section 5”
(source)
I have no idea how “violation against prohibition on calls to violence” pertains to our content. You can read CTH for yourself and see if you can identify anywhere where we have promoted a “call to violence”, it doesn’t exist.
For the sake of fairness, that’s their entire reasoning as provided. That’s their reasoning; you can make up your own mind if it makes sense.
We are working on relocation now. However, many people are rightly alarmed by this move by WordPress/Automattic because over the course of ten years there has never been any previous contact about any violation of any terms. Nor is any specific violation noted in the reply.
Tomorrow we will find a new host.
Be of good cheer and live your best life.
Sundance
This sounds like the same playbook used by that U.K. D-Bag that shut down The Federalist over comment section “hate speech” or whatever the hell it was he was D-Bagging about.
And I wonder if the “calls to violence” refer to the never ending stream of embedded Tweets with videos showing BLAMTIFA burning down cities, throwing military-grade fireworks at police officers, and assaulting old people. Maybe they should take that up with @JackAss. *shrug emoji*
At the risk of being accused of Thought Crimes, a suggestion of light educational reading for the Worker Drones at Automattic:
https://www.ushistory.org/Paine/
Maybe something to look over during Sushi lunch.
it was the picture Sundance posted of the guy praying. Thats considered violence to these sick demons.
^THIS^
and it’s Automattic 😉
incorrect attributions will not be tolerated.
NM, you got it correct Mr. P.
My bad
Are you serious… or speculating… or just being cheeky?
I’ll take any of those as an answer, by the way.
Yes! 😉 STAND DOWN. Friendly….
Hahaha! I always thought that picture of the lion licking his paws that Sundance would post every time Trump smacked down some adversary or problem was close to the line!
Maybe that’s what they meant? I thought it was rather cute actually 😀
This is a blessing in disguise. I hate the tech tyranny but this will work out for the best. I understand that a lot of CTH readers are used to the Word Press format but IMO it sucks. Not as bad as Reddit but the format is bad. Want an example of a great message board and blogger format? Visit tigerdroppings.com. Great format over there.
I think its a hint that Joe Biden has the name of every Trump Voter (his machine im sure records that and provides) – and will have companies start cancelling us.. AT&T, Utility Companies, Debite/Credit Cards, etc…
IRS 2.0
I have had a music website for 8 years using Word Press and I am in the process of moving my site elsewhere. It is not a large site, this is my response to them – I hope others do the same and walk away so they may “die by a thousand cuts.”
@HB:
That’s what Mark Steyn said Monday as he was sub for Rush Limbaugh Show. He said all the millions of people using WP needs to go somewhere else. He bragged on Sundance for treating him well. (Can’t wait for Rush to tear into them today when he comes back!)
Our company was told to switch to wordpress with advent of html5 for cell phone users. WordPress is considerably harder to use than what we had before. It’s time to look for alternatives to wordpress. If anyone has converted out of WP, please let me know name of provider.
……..’a blessing in disguise’, is exactly right. And, is a ‘community guardian’ the same as, or much worse, than a community organizer?
And……..tigerdroppings.com, what an interesting name………put a smile on my face!
Well Sundance, Your not going anywhere without us! Where we go one, we go all! We will be with you every step of the way! Please let us know where we can send support to help ease your move.
Glo
I just used the Donate button on this page … works great!
Hmmmm…pornography: ‘images of extreme violence or gore’. Perhaps Sundance and Treepers describing and reacting to the rape of democracy and the Constitution getting soundly ****** by the Democrats?
Incitements to violence: calls on the site to resist said desecrations of American principles and defend the Constitution?
I can see where they’re coming from.
czar, have you not been to the super secret vault 😉
/s
Of course. That would be right next to the alter to the God Emperor himself. /s
Is it hidden in the back of a DC pizza shop?
As always…..Czar SCORES!
Let’s say that we had just as fifth of the regular readers subscribe to the CTH on a new platform at a nominal fee such as $12 a year…that’s about what, 2 Starbucks period? That should be enough to fund a more ‘wind resistant’ platform. I know one professional has already offered his help for free to migrate it from WordPressure to wherever.
last line in TOS: inappropriate…..as determined by us in our sole discretion…
Translation:
“Don’t do as I do, do as I say”
Sorta obviates the need for all that preceeds, eh?
yup
Can we still check here to find out where to find you? I am not surprised at all. They are losing and have limited time. Therefore they are lashing out and hurting all they can. We knew this day would come. I will try and find you all. Praise the Lord! He fights for us! See you soon fellow patriots!
Galahad…..We have a list of everyone’s email address who has ever commented at the Treehouse. That list – along with the contents of our blog – will be exported to our new location. You will be notified as soon as we set up shop.
Honest question: does CTH need an extra injection of funds for the move, setup, fees, etc. etc.?
Honestly…..at this point I have no idea. I would image It depends on the site host Sundance selects. I do know that self-hosting, however, is pricey.
Pricey, yes. Especially considering site security and the chosen topology and methodology for content / data backup. Maintaining a 99.99% online uptime is not easy.
However in the current fascistic tech environment it may be a bargain if you can retain full control over your domain.
Absolutely. If money was no object, that’s the only way to really be safe.
Also, “the cloud” is fine for backups…. but only as a backup to your REAL backup, LOCAL backup. Maybe I’m just weird, but I don’t think I’ll ever get to the point where I trust “the cloud” 100%. Sorta like I still WRITE DOWN ON PAPER a whole lot of stuff that I also have Word, Excel, etc files for. 🙂
I still don’t trust any cloud for data storage. I bought my own NAS 4 years ago with 8Tb of capacity and its in my home network however I can access it from anywhere. Has 4 hot-swap drive bays… Don’t need no steenkin cloud… 😉
Second attempt. First one vanished. I have no idea how Blogs are set up or what Blogs are ” Good ” ( Apart from Jo-Nova Australia and Watts Up With That who are definitely kindred souls .) Would Sundance know of 5 , 10 , or 50 Blogs he approves of that could form a Group to share costs and provide mutual protection from interference ?
Well you got a donation from My Bear, through his paypal yesterday. And glad to know you have our emails :-). We will be wherever treehouse is.
I just donated because I ASSUMED there will be fees, etc.
what a mess for you all, Puddy. Hugs.
Actually, I think this will turn out to be a blessing. (((Hugs in return carter! ? )))
First up….I have no knowledge of how this is done or of other “Good Blogs ” , other than Watts up with that and Jo-Nova Australia , who are kindred souls. Would there be 5 , 10 , or 50 blogs Sundance approves of who could form a group to defray the costs and set up their own site safe from future interference ?
That’s the spirit! 2020 has been a year of intense focus on priorities and ways to achieve goals moving forward. Onward!
I agree, Ad Rem. My thought is: WordPress has probably wanted to kick CTH out here and there before, but Sundance bringing up the power of what’s likely to be at least 80 million people is too much. Cold anger has been fine, as we are not violent people, but when put in terms of fighting for what’s right, we, collectively, become a different entity altogether; especially financially. It’s always about the money, right?!
Thanks, good to know. I don’t check this particular email that often. I’ll be on the lookout.
I hoped that would be the case.
I would be lost if I no longer could look to this group for hope and guidance.
You all lift my spirit daily. Thank you.
Me too
More censorship. Afraid of the power of Truth, and of the ability to discern it. It cannot stand in a country this great. God will honor our Founding Fathers’ loyalty and desires.
This website has never incited violence. The violence is the thought police. Coming soon.
I thought you were going all Tolkien on us, but his name is actually Galahad.
I wonder if Smegol is lurking around somewhere.
I have never commented before, but I’m here everyday and I want to be included. I feel as if you are friends or family.
YAY! Thank you for your thoughtfulness with moving us to our new site. I was wondering if we had to sign up on our own. Stay strong and encouraged.
Hi, Ad rem. This is the only platform where I use the email you’ve recorded, and haven’t checked the mail there for maybe a year. It’s a long address and a pain to have to type it in EACH TIME anything is posted, along with my name, here at WP.
I may cancel the address but will keep it in play until you are settled in.
Here’s my required reply. First ever, but daily reader.
CTH, Better than 20/20 vision.
Without CTH, we would be legally blind.
And thank you for our daily prayer grounding.
God bless you with 444 more years of winning.
Sing it! :
“Every knee shall bow
And every tongue confess
That Jesus Christ is Lord!”
I just love that most of us activated ad-blocker software as soon as we found out Sundance and the Treehouse didn’t receive any benefit. It was one of those slow nights here years ago, when a lot of us were just whining about nothing in particular and the subject of ads came up. We were all complaining, and someone said well, at least the Treehouse makes a little money off them. And then you (or maybe Stella or Sharon?) said nope, it all goes to WordPress. Boy did those ads gets blocked REAL quick after that. 😀
Ok,so here is my contact information.
Once upon a time (2008) Matt Mullenweg said (according to Wikipedia):
“WordPress.com supports free speech and doesn’t shut people down for ‘uncomfortable thoughts and ideas’, in fact we’re blocked in several countries because of that.”
12 years later…
People change, no?
I note that Gizmodo complained to wordpress.com in 2019 about 24 “hate” sites relying upon the notoriously unreliable and biased SPLC. WordPress.com deplatformed 23 of the 24 sites. Other hosting providers declined to do Gizmodo’s bidding.
https://gizmodo.com/the-dirty-business-of-hosting-hate-online-1836286885
In the left’s crazy world, suggesting that anyone attend a “Trump Peaceful Protest” was an incitement to violence. LOL. My guess is that the 2 bullet points about “elections and democratic process” were added within the last couple of months (probably around Oct 1 when social media platforms foisted new sites, TOS, etc., on consumers/end users) and, of course, by promoting that the election might have been rigged, you are violating those terms. 🙁 When Cornwallis surrendered to Washington at Yorktown, ending the War for American Independence, his troops purportedly played “The World Turned Upside Down”. It is fitting:
GreyGal,
“bullet points”. Really? Jeez.
Well, the banning has already happened. Your kind of talk will get us banned twice.
/s
;^ )
Yikes — it never occurred to me! 😛
Greyledge Gal, I can’t tell you how often I have thought of that Cornwallis moment in the last few years. Nice to hear it from someone else.

Word press is deplatformed with me. After we figure out where you go I’m blocking the site

Ok, that letter was a lie, Sundance. Your real violation was the one at the bottom of Section 5- their real objection to your site is that you don’t accept that Biden won. Full stop, and I think you know this, too.
They are too afraid to tell you the real reason because the real reason is indefensible, and they know that.
WordPress owners, legal, whoever may not have even had a problem with CTH content… but they are being forced to fall in line. And/or pressured legally by aforementioned U.K. D-Bag. Dunno, just throwin’ it out there.
Consider: the “disinformation” thing… that’s all new this year, and being enforced bigly across all the platforms. It’s nonsense-speak, of course. I mean… just turn on Fox Freaking News.
Seems CTH was just fine and dandy until… what… ALL OF A SUDDEN… this year? I don’t buy it.
The Great Reset is coming… and 39% of it is gonna be Powered By WordPress… whether they like it or not!
If the Treehouse needs anything including donations we are there for you SunDance, just post a link.
Wolverines!!!
The donate button is to the upper right and below the flickering candle.
So, it would be a violation of their policy to discuss actual election fraud because it would call into question the legitimacy of the election?
As if forcing Sundance to move will break us apart.
It will make us stronger.
Keep up the good fight, Sundance.
God Forgives You, WordPress. (you may need your decoder ring to interpret this)
“God Forgives You, WordPress”.
The rest of us, not so much
‘God’ will have them scrambling for dictionaries, google, and relearning ‘Smoke Signals for Idiots’ … Your Updated Guide for Talking to Other Soulless Fascists.
Actually God only forgives those who ask Him with a truly repentant heart for forgiveness. I doubt that’s WP’s M.O.
Lucille, I agree.
I think the Treepers are a humble group. We know the difference between right and wrong…
That is why we need to pray for our adversaries, as well.And ask our Lord, ‘to make our hearts like Thine’….
Emboldened. Governors, mayors, the lame stream media, social media, internet hosts…everyone has become even more emboldened after seeing the results of the power of using covid to strike fear into many American hearts. They will beat us to our knees if we let them.

FB did exactly the same to me—never said what I actually did to stay in perpetual FB jail.
Except for CTH, I have stopped all (anti) social media, TV “news”—including FN, entertainment like Netflix, sports etc. that are all controlled by our enemies. I am not virtue signaling but I do wonder when more “patriots” will be willing to even be slightly inconvenienced in their comfortable lifestyles by stopping their support of the enemy as they continue to do by “dancing with the devil.”
Be glad that you’re out of Facebook. It’s a dystopian monster. They run facial recognition AI’s over your family photos so all people whose pictures you upload can be identified (name, address etc) by Antifa thugs taking a picture of them and uploading it to some Chinese app that has access to that data.
And even if you’re not on fb they may have a shadow profile on you based on how much information they gather on people who are connected to you, like with picture tagging like you mentioned.
I do not miss any of it. That is another of the lies of our mortal enemies—that we cannot “survive” without them.
jjh.. wondering the same myself, and have done for a long time. My Wife was searching online today for a kitchen item… found something she liked… called out to me “we aren’t buying at Amazon anymore, are we?”… We will find the item elsewhere, thanks.
Just as we are trying to do. ALL (and for those accusing me of being holier than thou etc., I have always included myself in my concern for how we ALL have been nudged to where we are now) of us have been damaged by those who HATE us and America. When will more of us start to see this and start to do better?
my next two steps:
1. no more Amazon
2. going phoneless, just an email for family/close friends
Excellent. We have now shifted to Walmart from Amazon—not a 100% solution but getting better in terms of stopping supporting the tech oligarchs.
More patriots need to wake up and see what has been done to ALL of us.
I do not order anything from Amazon; I am not on Facebook, Twitter and, recently deleted UTube for Rumble. I do not own a TV (10+years) and don’t miss a thing. I always check items I purchase as to where it’s made; if China I forego the item. I am and always have been addicted to CTH. I will walk miles to continue this ‘excellent, informative’ site. I believe in supporting ‘local’ establishments. Love the supportive, high-informative, non-argumentative Treepers!
We are moving in the same direction. More of us need to ponder walking the walk as well as talking the talk.
I have to laugh (or cry at times) reading the bluster of some who say they are chomping at the bit for “CW 2.0” when they have difficulty getting up from their recliners to get another beer during commercials in their reality or sports TV watching.
consult with ace.mu.nu
I don’t know if CTH reads our comments but I’ve written once. Go to Go Daddy, set up your own hosting and have your domain/site migrated. DO IT ASAP! Don’t lose your content. Do an immediate backup, verify it and move forward. Live to fight another decade or more with all your content in place. I know what I’m talking about here, this is not my first IT rodeo. Go Daddy has always been reliable for me and we’re talking several hundred projects.

No specifics? It seems to be rampant with the leftists and their ideologues.
There is a civil rights issue lurking in this. There is also a potential issue regarding their process.
If they are to make a punitive decision based upon personal feelings of low-level poorly supervised employees and then allow those employees to make legal decisions on behalf of their employer that would cause adverse economic injury and perhaps a violation of the customer’s civil rights… this raises significant questions.
Their product is, in part, process. They had a duty to ensure at all times their process is fit for its intended purpose, to allow the customer to freely exercise their lawful civil rights online via the processes provided as a service sold the customer. The process they have now seems overwhelming arbitrary and capricious.
Non-lawyers who are not corporate officers making legal determinations of adverse economic consequence to customers, without due process, in an arbitrary and capricious manner seems unconscionable on its face. Even more so when “feelings” are part of the decision.
What have these suppliers been selling to consumers of their service? They induce them to become customers, monetize their use of the process being sold to them as a service, and then kangaroo them with amateur non-lawyers who trample the customers civil rights at will, doing them economic and other unbargained for harm, apparently in a capricious and arbitrary manner.
This raises other general questions about deceptive practices. This raises questions about the process and its supervision being fit for its intended purposes.
When did it become ok for suppliers to mistreat consumers in such a damaging manner by arbitrary and capricious means? Are we looking at a defect in the product that might also trigger breaches of implied warranty for a particular purpose?
Given the potential UCC and Civil Rights issues involved, should these Suppliers be so smugly certain of their exemption from basic matters of law that effect every other type of commerce?
Devin Nunes shared Sundance’s first post about the CTH deplatforming on Parler today. His comment was “IMPORTANT! Please share with all your friends. This is what’s coming.” I dirched Fakebook for Parler. Lots of good people there (Sydney Powell, Mike Flynn, Dan Bongino, Lin Wood, Rudy Giulani, Jim Jordan, Joe Dan Gorman, etc.) and good content.
I visit several conservative sites and quite a few are highlighting about CTH getting deplatformed. This site getting kicked off is big. It has been noticed by conservatives all over.
Someday we will all disappear, and not a trace of truth about us will be easily ever found again. There will be nothing but lies told about us, we will be made the laughing stock of this era, Trump will be the boogeyman for generations to come…, until one day, one brave soul will discover the truth, and tell it, and people will start to listen again, and we may get vindicated. Or not. I doubt I’ll ever see a time in my lifetime where the Orwellian regime will fall. My heart sometimes is really heavy.
I share your sorrow! I trust in God but also recognize that His ways do not always make sense to me. I continue to pray for a miracle but also recognize that “the grass withers and the flowers fade…”
In the words of CS Lewis, “There are far, far better things ahead than any we leave behind” so someday this epic battle for truth will not matter, but for now, it does and it hurts so very much to see the lies that are taking hold, doesn’t it?!
Thank you. Yes. I am not a pessimistic person at all. For instance, I’ve known from the first moment on when Trump announced his run for President that he would win.
But now I think that maybe we just weren’t quite ready, that we just didn’t deserve this amazing man as our President. It sometimes feels as if we squandered it all. I don’t know what we could have done better, but still…
And all this boils down to a Last Stand of Good vs evil.
We shall see…
I am not either but I am old enough to have learned that sometimes things happen that are flat out wrong, no matter how hard good people worked to make them go “right”! As I said, I continue to pray for a miracle and will not change who I am and what I believe no matter what comes, but my heart hurts for those who will never know the joys of growing in this amazing country as it was back when I was young…
blazingnash……………Cheer up! Life is as good as we make it! The ungodly will never win!
“cheer up”
That’s just a dumb thing to say.
I told you, a long time ago now Sundance, you need to find another host. But you did not listen. TD was the first one they went after, and we made our own. I told you this would happen to you. You ignored it. And here we are.
You also claimed after the recent horrific attacks on Trump supporters and their families that the most disturbing images of the day had been Trump supporters taking down BLM signs.
I have a hunch why SD ignores your advice.
If you had taken the time to understand what I was getting at you would not be posting this.
My point in that comment was that if real Americans are engaging in this, it means something far more than Antifa or BLM or even Proudboys in the streets. It means shit is getting real.
And you ignored my point. So forgive me for ignoring you.
Oh through a progressives eyes i could see him citing the cth for a few of them. I say it falls under good fun in the comment section? So basicly woodpress is really butthurt & v gina sore that free speech is allowed here. Good riddens to bad rubbish i say. Im sure sundance is more than capable to transfer to a new provider. Its not right but who knows the new digs might be a little more to our liking? Like julia roberts after the shopping trip on pretty woman. Cth live long & prosper!??
Sundance – They just want you (and CTH) gone. Don’t lower yourself to even talk to them. It’s all part of the effort to utterly destroy anyone who supports, in any way, Donald J Trump. I have never been one to believe in an actual persona called Satan. It’s metaphor. But I told a friend recently that, given what’s going on these days, I can almost sense a presence, an actual evil being, at large in the world. I have never felt this way before. Perhaps I didn’t express it well. It’s late, and I am weary.
There is a being known as Satan, and he is real. But, there is One, known as I AM that is greater than the evil one and his minons!
meerkat, my reply to you may seem to be off topic, but it is not.
As someone who has met in person both of the major powers in the Universe- Satan is real. When I was 8 years old he tried to take my life force. As I lay there dying, he was right over my chest, watching me with an evil smile on his face. Then I felt something drop into my body (took me years to figure out what that was- a Guardian Angel ??). Then it used my mouth and throat to speak to Satan. It was an adult voice, very commanding and authoritative- It commanded, in Spanish, “¡A éste NO te lo vas a llevar!” (“This one you are NOT going to take!”). Took the smile right off Satan’s face. Then he faded away until he vanished. And then I was finally able to move again ????.
The Angel stayed with me, protecting me throughout my life against spiritual forces of evil. And then finally, four years ago, at age 61, I was finally ready. In the most surprising and beautiful moment of my life, my soul left my body, traveled through and outside the Universe, and met God in person ?. He showered his Peace and Love on me, gave me the answers to all the questions I had at the time (directly from His mind to mine). And then, through Him, I was part of everything- from the smallest subatomic particle to the largest galaxy in the Universe. So much beauty ????! Then my soul came back to my body, and I was so happy I cried nonstop for 2 hours, tears of joy, until my eyes were out of tears. Can’t wait to go back to God ????, but I will go only when God determines it is the right time.
Satan is real, he is all about death and destruction. God is also real, he is all about Peace, Love, Life, and Creation ????. Satan will NEVER turn me against God.
Our souls can survive anything Satan throws at us, even if he destroys our bodies. Fear NOTHING. I you love God, what comes after death is an eternity of awesome Peace, Love, and Beauty. I know, I have been there and seen it ????.
That was beautiful, Thank You
My comment is in moderation. Ad Rem, I’ve come to the Treehouse every day since 2015, but never commented.
“How close to us stands one of the celestial spirits, who from the cradle to the grave never leaves us for an instant. He guides us, he protects us like a friend, like a brother. This should be a source of constant consolation for us, especially during the saddest times of our lives.” Padre Pio.

Truly awesome comment.
Just to let you know i just tried to donate money . I clicked on the donate icon. before I could finish the information the page refreshed and pops back up with Morocco. and I tried 3 additional times and it refreshes the page once you put in your card information. It scared me very much. What the heck is going on with that.
This does not need to be posted publicly
Perhaps you should use the email (top of the page on the right) to contact CTH. I expect it just didn’t go through but you could email the moderators to be sure. It would give you peace of mind anyway.
The term used by the representative is very Orwellian: “Community Guardian”.
We are entering a modern version of the Dark Ages, an age of cruel authoritarian governance, poverty, prejudice, ignorance and chaos.
The United States is the last bastion of freedom, save for Israel.
What does Israel make better than Japan or Norway?
Blah blah blah. No one is buying this BS any more. Carefully worded pieces to craft opinion. Trouble is we see through it now. It’s both amusing and annoying at the same time. No doubt the author feels pleased with his carefully scripted innuendo, believing he has readers clutching their pearls. Sorry dude, it has the same impact as a conniving shrew who just won’t shut up.
trumpforthewin, which is why I am so tempted to think we should stand up and fight SamP
In fairness Grandma Covfefe does pray for the Dems to pouf and poof every night.
I blame Grandma.

Remember Romans 8:29. We will prevail!
God bless you Sundance. Just sent $500 for the new website. Don’t know what we would do without you if the Iron Curtain falls on this wonderful Nation.
… and God bless you, US
that’s a very generous contrib
You found the truth. Someone didn’t like it. I am so sorry. We have all noticed. May God continue to bless you. Remember the ole door closes, window opens analogy.

Timing is everything. No problems until the elites see 73 million patriots and our threats to their political correct safe place. They played along for the bucks but now must shut this movement down, of which CTH is a big part of. This is war. All the big tech corps must censor legitimate speech, because of Soros’s ilk. If they think they can silence us, they better think again. The difference between us and them is that we are loyal to the truth and God. They are loyal to lies and Satan. In the end, we win. Big tech is all in on crowning Biden as they know he is a puppet for their globalist masters. When President Trump wins, big tech will become many little techs and will rue the day they jumped the shark for globalism. We are living in a defining moment to preserve our freedoms. We will honor our founding fathers and make them proud. We must support those who support us and expose those who seek to destroy us.
I have learned so much from this site in the two years I have been here, politics, economics, common sense and camaraderie. I have embraced cold anger, I will follow wherever we go. CTH/Sundance is much bigger than WordPress and cannot be stopped or silenced. That they can think they can silence us is just a measure of their fear and insecurity. WordPress was just the first chapter of CTH, there’s an entire book left. Just tell us what you need Sundance and we and the good Lord shall provide. We are Family.
PayPal worked fine for the donation once we used the Google search engine.
As soon as any platform claims the ability to refuse service for ‘hate speech’ then you know that they can do so at any time of their choosing.
They should just be honest.
5. Prohibited content
Wrongthink
We’re behind you and will follow wherever you go.
Who needs WordPress anyway? CTH is one of the most polite and upstanding online communities you can find.
similar situation happened with r/thedonald when they were on reddit
thedonald.win was created by the mods just before reddit finally shut them down.
tdwin uses cloudflare hosting from what i understand
this all happened just before the election.
tdwin is prospering now.
In your future site you should block all links to twitter.
It’s a start.
Also block WP, Google, YouTube and any links to NYT, WaPo, CBS, NBC, CNN, ABC, Fox.
Digital overlordship is a myth.
They’ve got nothing if nobody listens to them. They are Charlie Brown’s teacher.

My guess is they’re pulling a Twitter with that second set of sub-bullets as their (flimsy) justification… specifically the first one. Utter nonsense, of course, but then they wouldn’t be part of the Big Club if they weren’t lying through their teeth…
I love your comment, “Be of good cheer and live your best life”. Encouraging words. My husband found your site about a year ago and we are faithful friends anxious to read. I am irritated by this censorship and can’t believe what’s happening to our voice! Growing up post WWII & Cold War, my cousins and I would talk about what we would do if invaded. Being girls instead of fighting we would be spies for the resistance. I will be 67 in a week,
would still be a spy! I just don’t know if I could become a good liar. I was censored permanently off Twitter January for pro life & transgender posts. I’m am shadow banned on FB. But I keep up with friends family & events in town. FB propaganda elections have integrity adds everywhere. .I want to throw up! This is my last refuge for fair news and perspective! I will follow wherever you go. God bless you Sundance
I am praying for you to find a better host. As I’m praying for President Trump and America. In God we trust.
The only thing I have ever seen here that even remotely hints at violence is the handful of trolls who have shown up just in the last couple of days trying to goad us into abandoning the legal process and going straight to 2a before the appeals have even been heard.
These people are not part of CTH and CTH should not be held responsible for their ignorant and childish rants. We’ve all seen them: (“c’mon, pussies. It’s now or never! Take it to the streets! What are you waiting for?”) That kind of useless, grade school playground crap.
CTH has always been about being well, informed, well prepared, and ready for anything. It has never been about abandoning a viable legal process that has not yet run its course. WP knows this, but may be exploiting these trolls. (who may have been sent here on a deliberate mission) to undermine the entire platform.
This is Information Warfare. Never forget it.
I look at all of this censorship on TV, social media, and now of blogs as a sign that we’re winning. I really don’t think they have much left they can do barring gaining control of the courts. They are trying their best to pound down the nail heads that stick out long enough to cover for this election fraud but I’m sure that what will happen is those nail heads will pop back up with a host of new ones elsewhere that is beyond their control.
YouTube has threatened Tony Heller at https://realclimatescience.com/2020/11/new-video-stalinist-purge/ with eliminating his account for citing statistics published by the NYT and CDC.
Sundance , same thing happened to me for a single comment on Gateway Pundit.
During the early days of this Spring riots in Portland I mentioned that the guy front and center in a photograph , a Caucasian , obviously a “leader” in a BLM riot “needed a slap in the head.” Got me banned permanently. I read a lot of much heavier stuff on that site and many sites on all sides of our struggle .
Anyway my point is they have the power and for whatever reason they like to flaunt it.
You won’t likely lose even one reader , make the change , as time consuming as it might be , and we will all be there with you. Good riddance, take your money and stellar reputation elsewhere.
Your work is well known and it is Word Press’ loss,
Sundown also known as HaoleBoy.
Such BS. Interesting how 10 yrs of consistent content and language passed without concern or even a warning. Obviously, the leftist ideologs at WP are on a power trip with the prospect of Biden stealing the election. I hope they suffer a severe backlash.
Hopefully Sundance has had time to see the various reports/commentary out today about what WP has done to CTH, and noticed the overwhelming support and accolades for his work left by commenters.
Food for thought…
CTH has enjoyed 10 years of intuitive, reflective and patriotic free thought and expression. Like Sundance said, we have laughed and cried together.
Ten years ago, the political winds were slightly different.
Ten years ago, the generation of children/students are now older, having been thoroughly indoctrinated by academicians, and in positions of somewhat ‘assumed authority’ meaning middle managers, where a lot of this ‘thought policing’ and ‘outrage’, occurs. They have been pre-programmed for just this scenario.
Hey WordPress! I got’cher ‘Prohibited Content’ right heah !!!
(in best North Jersey accent, while clutching groinal vicinity)
Here’s some pornography for your WP.
I staunchly support New Yorker Magazine for defending the 24th amendment and ridding itself of one of its writers who was a quite a “pole taxer.” /s
“the tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.” Thomas Jefferson. This quote and paraphrases of it have been mentioned on this blog on occasion. Freedom and liberty do require defending from time to time. Most snowflake liberals trying to destroy our freedom and liberty could be threatened by it and considered as “calls to violence”? That’s trivial and just a guess. What’s done is done we’ll pack our posts and follow Sundance!

Find yourself a better site, honestly. I sent you some money… we should ALL send you a bit of money.
“Hate speech”, that’s the catch all, you see?
And we all know that WordPress has been censoring posts.
I briefly played with Nextdoor but some users “complained” that I was “public shaming” them for actions they were taking in private messages, when they wouldn’t stop, I post it and then they complained…. “hate speech” I guess. Snowflakes that can dish it but not take it.
Here’s the email from the support team at Nextdoor, two weeks after I complained to them.. (by the way, after the reinstatement, i posted the whole thing on line, let it sit for a couple of days and told them to stick it).
Think of it this way, the fact the Snowflakes are filtering your means you are doing something good. Get in touch with the guy at Gab, see what he thinks.

Hi Tony,
Thanks for contacting us about this issue.
We temporarily disabled your Nextdoor account after your neighbors reported your posts for violating Nextdoor’s Community Guidelines on personal disputes and Nextdoor’s Community Guidelines on public shaming.
The content below was a sample of what was brought to our attention:
So, this user “Ella Lancer” is harassing me on private messages from this Site. She is a political Progressive and disagrees with my disagreeing with someone who had gone in a written rampage on making the Wuhan Virus an attack on our administration.
And now another one From: Elva Cutri, Quail Hill “Trump did nothing. Calling this a liberal hoax! . Look at where he put is now!!
I understand it can be frustrating when a neighbor acts in a way that you find inappropriate or offensive. However, Nextdoor is not a place to publicly shame your neighbors. When conversations become heated, we ask that members remember our overarching principle: “Everyone here is your neighbor. Please treat each other with respect.”
If you see a neighbor you know doing something that concerns you, please resolve any issues with them directly via private message rather than posting about it in the main newsfeed.
In the future, please refrain from personal disputes on Nextdoor, even if you feel that you have been provoked or your comments are fully warranted. Instead of engaging on the main newsfeed, we encourage you to:
Use private messages to resolve personal disputes
Mute members you’d rather not hear from
Report messages that violate the guidelines, so that your Lead(s) can review them
If you are not able to resolve the issue with the help of your Lead, then contact Nextdoor Support.
Please note, we have taken the appropriate action regarding all Guideline violations related to those members.
At this time, your account is eligible for reinstatement. To access your account, sign in to Nextdoor via a web browser. From there, you can continue to your Nextdoor neighborhood after checking the box stating that you agree to follow the Guidelines.
Please let me know if I can help with anything else.
Best,
John
