Over the course of the past week Gab has been deplatformed by one of our banks, a business we were working with to source new server hardware, third-party infrastructure analysis software, and even our accountant.
This isn’t anything new for us. We’ve been deplatformed by 25+ service providers including both app stores, PayPal, dozens of payment processors, hosting providers, email services, and more.
When this happens I rejoice and praise God because I know that He is working to separate the wheat from the chaff. This deplatforming inevitably reforms Gab into an even more resilient community, business, and platform. We don’t just sit around and whine when these things happen, we immediately get to work.
We aren’t victims, we are builders. Personally I don’t believe the common Christian mantra to “be in the world, but not of the world” means giving the enemy our money, time, and data.This has got to stop, right now.
John 15:19 If you were of the world, the world would love its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, because of this the world hates you.
I am in the process of transitioning every part of my financial expenses to support Christian businesses, Christian media companies, Christian content creators, and Christian people.
I am done giving my money to The Enemy and funding the destruction of our country and values. I encourage everyone else to do the same. If they are not serving God, they are serving Satan and I’m simply not going to fund that activity.
Deeply examine the businesses, brands, and media companies you currently support both financially and with your time. If they are virtue signaling critical theory nonsense or owned by demons you should immediately stop paying them and using their services. At this point we have no choice but to “build our own” everything. That starts by supporting those who are already building and share our values. It’s not about simply building our own social networking platforms anymore, it’s about building our own Christian economy. One without cancel culture. One that doesn’t embrace the demonic and degenerate cult religion of critical theory.
Critical theory (cultural marxism, the cult of social justice, etc) is a fraudulent, vapid, and pathetic subversion of well-meaning Christians, churches, and Christian values in general.
It lures decent God-fearing people into practicing a false and demonic pseudo-religion designed to accelerate their spiritual and literal demise. It preys on the malleable minds of our youth. It enslaves those who practice it and seeks to destroy those who do not.
It is a demonic imitation gospel and most certainly not the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It must be mocked, shunned, and rebuked by all Christians. Now is not the time to sleepwalk through history on this subject. We must know the enemy’s fake gospel better than they know it themselves so we can lead others away from it and towards to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Talk to your kids about these things. Homeschool them if at all possible. Cut the cable cord. Delete the Big Tech apps from their phones and your own. We have a lot of work to do, but remember that we have the Creator of the Universe on our side. Through Him all things are possible.
I was talking about some of these things with a friend this morning and she used a term that made a lot of sense to me: “the silent secession.” At the moment this secession is largely digital and economic, not geographical, but perhaps that will change at some point in the future. I, for one, am in full support of Jesusland.

America is a Christian nation. The foundation of Western Civilization itself is built on Christianity and more specifically: on the firm foundation of Jesus Christ. The second that changed is the second the destruction began.
Our Christian “kindness” and “tolerance” have fueled our own destruction and have been weaponized against us. Tolerance is not a Christian virtue. We are commanded to hate that which is evil (Psalm 97:10, Romans 12:9) not to fund it and give our time to it.
We have naively believed that pagans and others would not cut us down the moment they got into power as we are seeing unfold before our eyes over the past few decades. Lesson learned. A tough one to learn, but one that has been learned many times throughout history.
1 John 2:15 Do not love the world nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
It’s time to start adhering to this Biblical standard.

Please put me on your ping list. I will do my best to help locate sources and share.
You’re now on!
Awesome adding you to it !
So one of their banks stopped dealing with them. What is the name of the bank?
I dont know. I wish I did.
I understand the concerns you express concerning Torba’s comments but having been on his site for a while, and watching the other media sites, I think Andrew’s referencing of Christian principles aligns with the Judeo-Christian values upon which our nation was founded.
He has worked very hard to provide a free-speech platform under harsh criticism, even persecution. As many of us have dealt with loss of freedom in the past year, we have gone from being “deplorable” to a situation where simply verbally identifying as a “Patriot” on you toob can get one suspended.
By making the effort to choose to buy needed goods from a merchant or manufacturer who shares your values, you can either help or hinder business. We are seeking truth about merchants in order to make personal determinations.
The point is not for the group to dictate from whom you buy. That isn’t liberty. The point is to share information among one another so we may know our options in purchasing.
Do your best, research , use discernment, and dont give up. This will take work and lots of us researching and working together.

I agree. We have to check out the ownership of local places and support those that you agree with. I shop for many things at a small resale shop that is part of a Christian ministry for helping moms and babies. I like their mission and I don’t always like paying the prices at regular retail. This place often gets new items w/tags and the price is a fraction of new.
As for CB Automotive, since they are franchises, you’d have to check out your local one. Our son works for one out west and our family has had good experience with them.
That attack on FINANCES is all the more dangerous in a world without checks or cash.
Taking the time to find out about businesses around our local areas will also impact our towns positively IMHO. As we ask questions and get to know business owners I think it will embolden others to be more forthright in following their conscience. Much of the reason this "tolerance" has taken hold is that few dared question it. When we make a stand and speak of it, friends and neighbors will begin to question and vote with their purses as well.
and it never hurts to add the prayer. for the business owners and for the movement.

They already killed several free speech alternatives to Kickstarter two years ago by withdrawing payment processing.

Awesome, thanks for that resource.

Yep, these financial “censoring” episodes are some of the most dangerous things besides the censoring.
We’ve got to find a way around that.
I must apologize. The wrong word was applied..
"Being focused on a site that is purely "Christian" is dangerous."
By "site" I meant a real store or any place we do business. It was not my intention to put down Mr. Torba or warn against his web site. No, not at all.
Boxlunch answered me :
" In fact if they use Christian I am sometimes more suspicious. "
That's me. A wall goes up.
Thank you both for your responses. :)
If that's so, why would an American Secret Service agent have a communist star lapel pin? Secret Service might wear an American flag pin but not a star. I thought the same thing until it was clear that the Star was on his lapel. I haven't seen a Secret Service pin that looks like a communist star. The picture I have looks like it may have the hammer and sickle in the middle.
Is it beyond Biden to request a CCP to guard him? Can a Korean American citizen be a communist? There is probably some law stating Secret Service can be a Muslim. Why not a commie? If we go to war with China, will he stay on as Biden guard?
bkmk
Pinging the Silent Christian Secession list
That looks like a wonderful organization, and EXACTLY what we are trying to do here, thanks tbw2
It was a secret service pin.
The same agent worked for President Trump.
