Social Disease

Add WordPress to the list: The Treehouse is Deplatformed…

One week after the 2020 presidential election, The Conservative Treehouse received the following notification:
…”given the incompatibility between your site’s content and our terms, you need to find a new hosting provider and must migrate the site by Wednesday, December 2nd.”

Unbelievable.

    1. Twitter goes 100% Crackpot Fascist – Parler is born
      Drudge goes 100% to the Chicoms – Populist Press is born
      Fox goes wussy – Trump recommends NewsMax TV that has now surpassed Fox Business and CNBC – finally takes off and home of Steve Bannon who was just banned by Twitter. Fox evening ratings down 20 to 25% from mid October to mid November.

      The Left does not own everything. No one has to read the NY Times, The Wash Post or watch CNN, MSNBC, CBS, NBC or ABC – screw them all.

  1. There was no explanation, and no detailed, in depth reason, contradiction, or violation.

    Just an essential “we don’t like you’re icky” denial of service.

    I’m surprised there haven’t been more lawsuits, breach of contract for these violations of free speech. Perhaps, yet to come. Or, a gigantic business opportunity for like minded individuals to serve the huge conservative marketplace that exists.

  2. You have to hand it to the left – their harassment campaigns are unequaled. We might need an actual right wing fascist some day to reset the system. Oh the irony.

    1. Fascists are/were left wing. Stop falling for the leftist trap. We don’t need fascism, we need Pinochet.

      1. Fasism is anti-capitalist at the national level. All major industries are part of the state and only allowed to run when they meet the purposes of the state.

        Free speech is anti-fascist. Fascists send in the thugs to stop free speech. Those who look at actions instead of words know that Antifa are fascism (or communism) in America. That’s why they are on the periphery of Trump gatherings, to try to strike fear into those with whom they disagree to prevent them from speaking up in public again.

        1. Strictly, communism is the state owns the means of production. Under fascism, the “capitalists”, crony by this time, still own the means of production but conform to state dictats when required – otherwise there may be strikes and other disruptions to business. And maybe a familly member may have an accident if you know what I mean. Otherwise, we will protect you if you do what we say.

          From reading my descriptions, I would say that fascists are the gangster communists.

      1. If Trump isn’t given his legitimate win now, there won’t be any 2024 for Repubs or any non-Dems/non-fascists.

        1. I agree with this. Trump wins 2020, or we are taken over by the globalist government and “elections” are permanently fixed. Canada is already half way there. Our country is being eroded by policies that support globalist interests over the needs of ordinary Canadians.

          1. “I agree with this. Trump wins 2020, or we are taken over by the globalist government and “elections” are permanently fixed.”

            Yes, LindaL is correct. This one is for All the Marbles.
            Either Donald Trump wins or any and every election in the future can be stolen.

    2. Fascists and communists are the two nuts from the same peanut shell. One is national socialism, the other international socialism to make it as simple as possible.

  3. since they believe that biden won fairly, they think that this is somehow a way to increase their revenue, by chasing away paying customers who don’t agree with their “content and terms”.

    somehow, that doesn’t seem like a winning strategy

    1. “since they believe that biden won fairly”

      Sure. A man who didn’t even campaign won an election over a man who had rallies of 40-60 thousand people in the same “battleground” states that Biden won in. Sure.
      Can I sell you the Brooklynn Bridge or maybe some swampland in Arkansas? No, they do not believe that.

  4. I’ve looked through the terms of service at WordPress, section 4 at the link here:

    https://wordpress.com/tos/

    The only thing that stands out is nowhere does it mention in the terms of service, that thought that may be conservative is permitted.

    And like it is in some other countries, and on some topics here in Canada, certain topics are forbidden.

    It does mention this,
    “We do not endorse any Content or represent that Content is accurate, useful, or non-harmful. Content could be offensive, indecent, or objectionable; include technical inaccuracies, typographical mistakes, or other errors; or violate or infringe the privacy, publicity rights, intellectual property rights (see our Copyright Infringement and DMCA Policy section to submit copyright complaints), or other proprietary rights of third parties.”

    So clearly, WordPress is saying, “we don’t like you, and you can’t be here”.
    That is all.

    Good that CTH didn’t refuse to bake a cake for WordPress.
    It works both ways, I’m not advocating for deplatforming, but if they don’t like you, you’re off their island.

    Note: Steven K. Bannon’s WarRoom Pandemic episodes #503 and #504 returned to the YouTube yesterday am, it wasn’t on this am and wasn’t scheduled to return until tomorrow. So there’s that.

    1. They’re making the Twitter mistake of freeing themselves from the protection of 230 by choosing sides. They’re not a platform anymore, they’re assuming the role of publisher.

  5. The Dementoctrats are discovering what the communists always knew, taht you cannt just censor a little bit, control must be total. Not only no dissent; NO DEVIATION.

  6. WordPress can’t touch Kate. She uses the self hosted version and hosts the site on a server of her choosing. The Conservative Treehouse was using the hosting the WordPress is offering themselves. Self hosted is better anyway with a knowledgeable admin. Most of these tech sites are run by a bunch of leftists so this isn’t surprising.

    edit. oops, I meant to reply to burton above.

    1. Maybe, but soon the ISP (Rogers, Bell, Sasktel, etc) could say “hey, we don’t like the content you’re peddling on our network, GTFO!”. It’s open season now.

  7. Did you think they were joking when they said they were making a list and there were going to be consequences for their enemies? Are you not familiar with the idea of pour encourager les autres? Do you not know how totalitarians operate? This is going to get a lot worse before it gets better. Time to pick a side.

  8. I will be taking down my own blog shortly. It was a very small travel blog and I can’t travel now anyway due to COVID. I doubt WordPress will even notice but I’ll be damned if I stand back and do nothing when my favourite blog is deplatformed.

  9. We are literally living through a dystopian future. Does anyone honestly think that it won’t be much longer before phone, electricity, and water service isn’t turned off on those that are engaged in wrong-speak?

    1. They’ll arrest and execute all political opposition soon. There’s no doubt in my mind. That’s why I bought a liberal party membership. Prove I’m faking it bitches.

      1. James, they wouldl take you to their interrogation spot and make you squeal like a pig. Got KY ready for the pain to make you confess? Way to be strong or hopefully soft. Just kidding with you James.

    2. On the radio today, I heard clips of former FAILED President Obama insist that there was NO Fraud in the election … and he celebrated a … “Return to Normal”. That’s what the THEFT of our Democracy is to these Communist Demoncraps… a “Return to Normal”. That’s what deplatforming conservatives is … silencing conservatism … a … “Return to Normal”. That’s what Democrap Totalitarian Fascism is … a … “Return to Normal”. That is the talking point of post-election … a … “Return to Normal”.

      I also heard a CA Congressman claim that Mail-in-Voting was a huge success and should become the National standard method of voting across the country. He wants election FRAUD … to become the “New Normal”. Oh! And if you don’t “believe” in the “New Normal” of election FRAUD … then you will BE SILENCED! … by any means necessary.

      First: The Left claimed the “Scientific” “Moral High Ground” … by “believing” in Global Warming. The “Moral High Ground” by pushing women’s CHOICE of abortion. The “Moral High Ground” by promoting gay “marriage”. This is what is being defined as “A Return to Normal” … silencing HALF the US Population. I suggest that the Democretins “Normal” … is actually the START of the 2nd American Civil War.

      This is how the Fascist Demoncretins will solve a “divided America” … they will simply cut-off all dissent. End Free Speech. And destroy every Constitutional RIGHT of half the Population of America. This is what they call “Normal” … and “Moral”

  10. To some this comes as a surprise? Some here have been warning our friends and commenting about this for the last decade, and have been labelled as alarmist and conspiracy nuts. Well the last year of events have proven the point. The rise of fascism in Germany in the 1930’s started out the same way. The same people that will threaten and intimidate, behind the standard of BLM and Antifa will be the same ones that escort you onto the cattle cars. Anyone who thinks this couldn’t happen in America today, suffer the same delusion that the Jews had in Germany. The past election proves it. The only difference in 1930’s Germany and 2020’s America is that today’s fascists are a little more refined and skilled. They control the media, they control the elections, they have shut down public political forums and now they are shutting down and controlling all communication media. Shortly they will control all movement. The corruption has already been grafted into the Tree of Liberty and it remains to be seen if there is a force strong and willing enough to prune the diseased branches before the tree dies.

    1. One other little difference might be that there are an estimated 393 million privately owned firearms in the USA (more guns than people).

      So should make it more of a fair fight. Can’t wait to see the left try to come and take them.

    2. ANTENOR…..Bingo.
      100% true and bang on the $$
      BLM/Antifa and their Burn Loot Murder rampage for the past 6 months rivalling Kristallnacht.

      Identifiable group to shit on: White Euro Centrics or in the US Anyone who supports the Constitution and the US Flag. In 1935 it was the JEWS.

      MSM (througout the Western Hemisphere) = Josef Goebells Ministry of Propaganda

      Avg Leftist = KAPO
      Avg Socialist Democrat = Kampf guard
      AOC and the like..?? full on NAZI filth. – you can clearly see it in the eyes.

      Swap out Liberal for any of the above and you have Kanada to a TEE….with a shit ton less Patriots of any kind, willing to stand up and be counted.

      1. The Jews are already on the left’s kill list and have been for a while. Right now they only allow kappos to remain in their parades meaning only those Jews who disavow Israel and Zionism can march. Plus their pet Jews have to agree to hide all signs of being Jewish lest they trigger “oppressed Palestinians”.

  11. Hi All, I need advice then. I am planning to build a website and was going to use WordPress cause I didn’t know any better. Now I do. Can anyone recommend a similar service?

  12. So? They own their domain, they can host it themself if they want. It’s not like they need wordpress, it’s just convenient. You can’t deplatform anyone on the Internet, you can only be removed from certain supports. Isn’t that what freedom is? If a cake maker can’t be forced to make a cake for a lesbian wedding then wordpress can’t be forced to support CTH. Grow up and do it yourself, don’t depend on the weenies of the left.

    1. You might not have noticed bakers have been forced to bake the cake on multiple occasions.

  13. Is there a list?
    A list of businesses, organizations, . . we know about the tech giants . . . that can guide me in my choices?
    I think it would be VERY long by now but a reminder list would help a lot!!!

    1. Yes, I caught that too. No mention of ANTIFA or Burn Loot Murder. It all happened because of Trumpers. This is very similar to the “It all started when Israel shot back” press that has been going on since at least the 90s.

  14. While it’s true that SDA isn’t hosted on WordPress and CTH can migrate to another hosting service,
    I wonder if WordPress can stop you from using their software?

  15. Unless they take down the entire net there will always be a platform. New sites are coming online all the time and existing ones will move in to replace ones that change their stance.

    Watch One America News. They’re poised to make some noise.

  16. The thing is conservative treehouse is by no means a radical “right wing “website.

    it’s not conspiracy oriented it backs things up with well researched facts.

    Very well researched facts.

    Incontrovertible facts.

    And as such it’s very influential.

    So I have to wonder at this stage of the game, (it’s still early) why WordPress would out them selves like this?

    They have nothing to gain by doing this and certainly something to lose by outing themselves as just another bunch of radical leftists in the pocket of the deep state.

    So I am left to think that the The deep state globalists – or whatever you wanna call them – are calling in all of their markers right now.

    Full court press. All in. Everybody balls deep, because If Trump wins again, as Hillary famously said, “we all hang”

    1. I am thinking they have decided Biden won and they can now attack anyone they like and if they don’t, they will be on the attack list.

  17. “Very well researched facts.

    Incontrovertible facts.

    And as such it’s very influential.”

    Why do you think they want to take them down?

  18. Agreed Rusty, but before today I had no idea they supported radical totalitarianism.

    They just told me.

    Why now?

    It’s not like CTH will disappear any more than x22 did.

  19. Ward, yup, and I enjoy reading at CTH, BUT, sundance can’t complain about others doing to him, as he does to others. I posted in CTH several time, nothing outside the rails, clean and neet. My posts were deleted, no explanation, and eventually I couldn’t post, not even using a different name and e-mail addy. SD being a religious nut job, must not have liked my name, NME666, so talk about what goes around comes around.

    1. So you think that the same book where you got the 666 from also telling believers that people such as yourself are going to hunt down and murder believers wholesale isn’t as offensive as calling yourself F*ckFace McCo*ksucker? Man, you are as schtoopid as dogshit.

      1. as usual Ooz you make NO sense with your post. I tell believers no such thing, I just use a number in my on line ID, that’s all you dumbfuck. Talk about stupid, you are the exact reason I use the 666, because it draws out religious bias. Just as it just did with your post.

        1. “you are the exact reason I use the 666”

          Yeah, sure. Are you clutching your pearls and hovering near your fainting couch?
          You use a gratuitously offense nic and then proceed to pose as the offended party when Sundance deletes your scurrilous screed? Pshaw, Mr. Enemy. You’re a Liar to the very core of your being.

    2. NME, sorry, but your typical posting deluge is self-explanatory for deletion, anywhere.

      After a week or so of pretending, you’re back to your tired old ways.

      1. dan, maybe one day you will grow up, and be counted as a real man. Not a butthurt religious wimp.

        The lefties are upset with CTH, and you and your ilk are up set with with a god damn number. Which means nothing to most of the world, just the mentally ill kristians are upset with it, Full stop

    1. “And we are losing, I might add.”

      Who is “we”? You and your tapeworm? How do you think things looked in 1942? Rosy?
      Losing is only for after Donald J. Trump throws in the towel. Now is not the time to go wobbly.

    2. Conservatives in Canada lost long ago. In the USA, many of them don’t know it yet, but they have lost, too.
      US-style Conservatism as we have known since Reagan is dead. A much more aggressive and populist alternative has taken its place. Between that and the new radical progressivism taking over the Democrats, what happens next has the potential to be very bad.

  20. Why the hell don’t conservatives have their own “platforms”. Are we all so stupid we can’t figure out how to do it?

    1. I blame Al Gore for inventing the internets…/

      Actually it’s a failure of imagination on the part of conservatives.(as usual)
      Conservatives always won all of the arguments against Progs from the beginning. They never imagined the Progs would be so craven as to take over the major sites and deplatform conservatives.

      1. Ooz, it’s relion that has dumb you down, Now go read Mad Max’s platform, he is a real conservative, another reallity you refuse to axcept. As to Donald throwing in the towel, nope, he clawed his way out of “bankruptcy ” 6 times, and that proves he’s a fighter. You should really learn when to STFU

        1. NM, as a Mad Max supporter I don’t recall you jumping in there with support. And religion has sweet f all to do with it.

          1. old guy, I have supported Max with $$$$$, and helped the local candidate, is that good enough for you. And yes, if fools like you were able to listen to some of my political conversations you would know that religion narrows the voting base. Many conservatives I talk to support the right to choice as to abortions, the rite to choice for assisted suicide, legalized MJ, and don’t have a problem with gay marriages. And those are all things religious voters are against.

    2. Yes.

      Soi-disant conservatives adamantly refuse to learn how the Internet works and how the relevant law around it functions. They’d rather bitch and complain and demand Big Daddy Government step in and make corporations give them things for free.
