WordPress reportedly banned the popular right-wing manosphere blog Chateau Heartiste on Friday in the latest assault on Free Speech at the hands of Big Tech.
When one visits the site now it says it was suspended for unspecified violations of WordPress' "terms of service."
An internet archive of the page shows the blog has been around since 2011 without any issues.
One of the last posts made on the site was titled, "Corporate Conspiracy to Silence and Impoverish Political Dissidents."

Here’s the meat of Chateau Heartiste’s last post before WordPress finally decided he needed to be executed: pic.twitter.com/eyjJtbDQhx — Eli Schiff (@eli_schiff) May 10, 2019
According to a reposted archive of the article, the post was about men's rights activist Roosh V getting banned from Instagram and Chase Wepay after announcing a speaking tour of the US (Amazon had previously banned nearly all of Roosh's books and he was also banned by PayPal).
The post read:
Roosh is setting off on a US speaking tour starting in June, to various s**tlib cities. No doubt, the corporate censors and the monitors at the CIA sent notice to their pantifa shock troops, who will likely harass Roosh at more than a few stops along his tour. It could get violent, because pantifa is a violent domestic terrorism organization. If you are a CH reader and happen to be in town on the day Roosh is speaking in your city, you should buy a ticket and go there to show support and to defend a fellow dissident from the leftist freaks should they decide to disrupt the event.
Tucker Carlson suggested last week that Big Tech has declared "total war" on free speech.
"We are watching in real time as this country becomes unfree," Carlson said. "Who's defending us here? Where are our leaders in Congress? Where is the White House? As long as big tech isn’t hassling them personally -- as long as their accounts remain open -- they don't seem to care. They are fools. Will any of these people get re-elected if leftwing tech companies can control the terms of political debate? Can you really win a presidential election if Google opposes you? No way. Not a chance. Not right now. Without freedom of speech, there can be no democracy. It’s time to stop lying about that."
Leftoids cheer this censorship and demonetization of political enemies, but normal Americans seem oblivious to the threat that corporate censorship collusion poses to the very foundations of the American Republic. It helps to think about this in the starkest terms available: wealthy corporate executives and board members of multiple social media and online banking platforms are conspiring with each other to prevent certain Americans from speaking their minds and making money from supportive listeners, which in turn has a chilling effect on the speech of all Americans.
We are in an era of monopoly power again, and it's getting worse. Too much wealth and power is concentrating in the hands of malevolent people who have little connection to Heritage America and even less connection to the ideals of Heritage America.
It's a dangerous game our leftoid freakfriends play, and Trump is just the beginning of what we embattled freemen will summon to defeat the tyranny spreading like wildfire across the land.
It seems pretty clear our ruling oligarchs feel they're completely losing control of the narrative and are taking desperate measures to shut down all free speech online.
Banning all of the most influential alternative media personalities from all social media and closing many of their PayPal and bank accounts is a drastic step to take which I can only assume reflects Big Tech's internal data analysis showing they're losing control of the minds of the masses at an increasingly rapid pace.
Our social engineers are smart enough to know banning all these dissidents only makes their message stronger but they likely felt they needed to do it anyways.

They seem to want to try and force everyone to consume exclusively Neocon 2.0 propaganda from Jordan Peterson, Ben Shapiro and the rest of the Intellectual Dork Web.
As we saw last week with Ben Shapiro imploding on the BBC after merely being read his own tweets attacking Palestinians, our social engineers are going to have a lot of trouble if they think this is actually going to work.

Well, ok, how about if the author asked you to cite the neo-nazi creed?
I will miss GBFM, lozzlozzzzl and how to desouls the womens.
Wrong recipient; sorry about that!
Sorry, I don’t know what the neo-nazi creed is.
If somebody asked me to recite it? You have to be kidding.
They’re getting ready for the election, when they plan to shut us up entirely and promote radical America-hating leftists.
No you won't.

Now if I can only find a link to the article “Its easy to identify a sloot”
Seriously?
Wordpress.com is now Big Tech?
I’ll bet there are at least 500 other hosting services that could handle that blog and the readers would be none the wiser.
Are you saying no hosting service should have any say about the content that they host?
I’m beginning to think that your 1m user test is a fiction and that you just want everyone to be able to post their their random thoughts on anyone else’s platform - for free.
Right?
If it's free speech, and they are carrying significant levels of public traffic, then "No", they shouldn't be allowed to censor content.
If they don't like that requirement, they should find another line of work. I don't care who owns the telephone poles. By G@d they'll carry it all, or they won't carry any of it!

Only if they carry other traffic for free. If they charge other people, they can charge everyone. What they cannot be allowed to do is get huge numbers of communication traffic, and then control what that traffic is.
So we see that the Achilles heel of capitalism is its tendency towards monopoly. Until conservatives address that weakness, good luck with the modern world.
Now you're back to saying Jim can't ban people.
You try to hide behind "huge numbers" but that's just a convenient dodge because your basic premise is so preposterous.
In the authoritarian world you advocate government will define 'huge' and you won't have any say - or property rights.
Notice the qualifier "huge numbers of communication traffic" in my post. If you are small fry, you can do what you want, but when your attempts to censor affect millions, then you need to be forced to carry all traffic.
As regrettable as it is, Free Republic is small fry in the larger scheme of things. I wish it weren't, but it is.

My basic premise is that censorship of speech is just as great of a threat coming from the "private" sector as it is coming from government. We cannot allow it on any large scale.
In the authoritarian world you advocate government will define 'huge' and you won't have any say - or property rights.
Forcing everyone to allow freedom of speech is "authoritarian"? I begin to think you do not understand the word.
I have no idea what your comment means.
...... what's "white nationalism?"
Mesopotamia West (a blog) was wiped off the blogosphere years back; a product of “PC” attacks by SJWs before the term SJW had been coined.
Frank Hilliard was the man’s name, doubt few here know even what I’m on about ...
Aside from what that list is called, I don’t see the problem with any of them. Men need to do everything they can to protect themselves and their resources.
This was my favorite blog. Brilliant guy.
