The Counter-Currents Newsletter, July 2019
Posted By Greg Johnson On In North American New Right | Comments DisabledDear Friends of Counter-Currents,
There’s good news and bad news.
First, the good news. In terms of traffic, July was a very strong month for Counter-Currents, the best month so far in 2019. We had nearly 30,000 more unique visitors than in June! Although our traffic dropped at the start of 2019 due entirely to new search engine stealth censorship, people are finding new ways to get to Counter-Currents, as they have done in the past.
Now the bad news.
In July we were deplatformed from yet another credit card processor. This was a major blow. We have a stopgap in place, but can only take credit cards from US customers at present. (If you want to donate, please do it now, while you still have the chance. Just scroll down to the bottom of this newsletter and fill in the form.)
It is becoming increasingly clear that deplatforming might no longer allow me to continue supporting Counter-Currents through book sales and small donations from a large number of supporters. There may come a day — very soon, actually — when I simply can no longer take conventional online payments at all. At that point, I will only be able to receive money through:
- Crypto currencies
- The mail
And not a lot of our supporters will make that transition, unfortunately.
Realistically, that means that if Counter-Currents is going to continue to grow, we must cultivate a smaller circle of high-commitment, high-dollar patrons. I know you are out there. Until now, you have been part of a much larger donor pool, and you could take that into account when calculating your support. Now, we can no longer take that for granted. So I would like to talk to you about increasing your support to make Counter-Currents less vulnerable to deplatforming. If you want to help out, please contact me at [email protected] [2].
In July, we added 75 pieces to our webzine, including four podcasts. Our top 20 articles and full stats are below.
