Dick was on the Revenge of the Cis livestream just earlier talking about the NewProject2/Chase Bank stuff. Timestamps below.
00:00 Dick Masterson guests on the Revenge of the Cis show
00:15 Notch came up with the name "NewProject2"
00:30 Chase Bank canceled Dick's merchant services account powering NewProject2
01:25 Last Christmas Dick built NewProject2 as an alternative to Patreon after all the deplatforming
01:50 "There's no way the
banks care about people making too many fat jokes!" (optimistic_rating.jpg, apparently.)
02:40 "They killed it. Bank of America killed my backup account, Chase killed two of my accounts today"
02:55 Chase is notorious for canceling: they did it to the Proud Boys too.
03:25 Are there any viable alternatives? Local credit unions, etc?
03:45 Dick will talk to "the porn guys", but weirdly, they're
more restrictive on content. (as
@ThinkThankThunk noted.)
03:55 Discover were the ones who called Chase bank and got them to cancel Dick/NewProject2
04:55 Were Chase Bank
not supposed to have told Dick that Discover called them? Oops!
05:40 There's only so many merchant services! What happens when Discover calls the next one?
06:05 Dick has a lot of empathy for Patreon now for having to deal with banks
06:45 Whodunnit? "So many people hate me, I don't know."
07:10 And just when the Dr Phil tapes were found, too! It was supposed to be a great week!
07:25 On cancel culture and the 'woke'
09:20 Chase Bank still owns the mortgage for Dick's house, though! They're happy to
take his money...
09:50 "Everybody says Bitcoin is the answer, but nobody fucking uses it!"
11:25 "There's a lot of people on [NewProject2] that
need it." Fuck the A-logs.
12:05 ...And then they came for the comedians...
13:25 YouTube still owes the ROTC guys $4k from 6 months ago!
14:00 "It's crazy how [YouTube] treat money...if you're 'hate-superchatting' they'll donate it to charity"
14:25 "[The Left] built a weapon, and they're never gonna stop with it."
15:00 But it's not even just the Left anymore! "Look at the Nick Fuentes situation."
16:40 Mersh's burnt out on politics. "Can I just be
funny?"
17:05 "You're a Nazi, we're not giving you eggs, we donated your money to the ADL."
17:40 On Rubin and Peterson's Patreon alternative: Where is it?!
18:50 "It's fucking hard to build these systems!" Especially when Peterson/Rubin are adding unnecessary features.
19:45 Could it be Patreon engaging in anti-competitive practices?
21:45 Everyone immediately chips in with advice. "You should sue them!"
23:15 Banks charge porn companies 10% to process payments, but would rather 'edgy' creators not exist period.
24:00 Dick has learned a lot this last year about how banks and financial transactions
really work
24:50 "I'm not gonna stop, I'll find another fucking bank"
25:20 The 'free market' doesn't work when corporations care about activism over money
26:30 On Charlie Kirk's situation. "I had to look up what a 'Groyper' was finally this morning."
27:20 "'The left can't meme!'... Have you heard of the meme called 'Gun Control'? Their memes are the
law."
28:35 "And then when they get to a certain level they just become 'Mug Salesmen'." Steven Crowder BTFO'd.
29:10 The hosts wrap it up, Dick pimps his social media and leaves
