The Counter-Currents 2022 Fundraiser
Our Columbus Day All-Or-Nothing $5,000 Matching Grant!

1,000 words

Counter-Currents aims to raise $300,000 this year to sustain and expand our work, including organizing real-world community events and creating a new public policy institute. Two weeks ago we crossed the half-way point. This week we got almost one percent more toward our goal. Thus far, we have raised, $167,493.71, which is 55.8% of our goal. Thank you, everyone who has helped out.

This is Columbus Day weekend in the United States. In the past, Americans celebrated Columbus’ voyage of discovery, which opened the New World to white settlement. For years, the Left has tried to replace Columbus Day with “Indigenous Peoples Day,” to honor the peoples who lost their homelands to white settlers and conquerors. Personally, I never had any problem acknowledging the sufferings of the indigenous peoples of the Americas. I would even support an Indigenous Peoples Day if it were not intended as a symbolic erasure of Columbus Day, which it obviously is.

Many people don’t want to fight over “mere symbolism” like replacing Columbus Day with Indigenous Peoples Day. This is rank folly. Symbols matter. Ideas matter. Replacing Columbus Day has now escalated to destroying statues of Christopher Columbus. Would the same people dismiss being burned in effigy as “mere symbolism”? Because that’s what’s taking place here. White civilization in the Americas is being destroyed in effigy. This is simply a prelude to destroying it in reality, a process that has long been underway. Eventually, it will dawn on even the thickest that whites themselves have been targeted for extermination. Let’s hope it is not too late when they finally wake up.

Counter-Currents has always pushed back against white erasure. See our ever-expanding Columbus Day Resources ^[2] page. In support of this effort, a donor has offered us a $5,000 ALL-OR-NOTHING, ONE WEEK ONLY matching grant in honor of Columbus Day. This is a chance to make your donation go twice as far. But time and generosity are both of the essence. We have one week to reach $5,000. Here’s how you can help.

1. E-Checks

The easiest way to send money to Counter-Currents is by e-check. It is as secure, fast, and convenient as a credit card. All you need is your checkbook.

E-checks don’t work outside the US, but we now have a new way to send recurring or one-time donations from outside the US for very low cost. For details, email [email protected] ^[6].

2. Credit Cards

In 2019, Counter-Currents was de-platformed from five credit card processors. We applied to a couple of other processors but were turned down. In the process of applying, we discovered that Counter-Currents has been put on the so-called MATCH list, a credit card industry blacklist reserved for vendors with high rates of chargebacks and fraudulent transactions. This is completely inapplicable to Counter-Currents. Thus our placement on this list is simply a lie — a financially damaging lie — that is obviously political in motivation.

Currently, there are only two ways we can take credit card donations:

1. CashApp as $CounterCurrents ^[7]! CashApp allows you to make an instant credit card donation without a high processing fee. Plus, it gives us an encouraging mobile alert when you donate! Boost the Counter-Currents staff morale instantly! Donate via CashApp!
2. Entropy, a site that takes donations and comments for livestreams. Visit our Entropy page ^[4] and select “send paid chat.” Entropy allows you to donate any amount from $3 and up. All comments will be read and discussed in the next episode of Counter-Currents Radio, which airs every weekend.

3. Bank Transfers

It is also possible to support Counter-Currents with bank transfers. Please contact us at [email protected] ^[5].

4. Gift Cards

Gift cards are a useful way to make donations. Gift cards are available with all the major credit cards as well as from major retailers. You can send gift cards as donations electronically, by-email, through the snail mail. If you can find a place that sells gift cards for cash, they are as anonymous as sending cash and much safer.

5. Cash, Checks and Money Orders

Sometimes the old ways are best. The least “de-platformable” way to send donations to Counter-Currents is to put a check or money order in the mail. Simply print and complete the Word ^[8] or PDF ^[9] donation form and mail it to:

Counter-Currents Publishing, Ltd.
P.O. Box 22638
San Francisco, CA 94122
USA
[email protected]

Thank you, Boomers, for keeping your checkbooks, envelopes, and stamps. There are youngsters reading this site who have never written a check or put a letter in the mail.

6. Bill Payment Services

If you wish to make monthly donations by mail, see if your bank has a bill payment service. Then all you need to do is set up a monthly check to be dispatched by mail to our PO box. This check can be made out to Counter-Currents or to Greg Johnson. After the initial bother of setting it up, you never have to think about it again.

7. Crypto-Currencies

In addition to old-fashioned paper donations, those new-fangled crypto-currencies are a good way to circumvent censorious credit card corporations.

• Click here ^[10] to go to our crypto donation page.
• Click here ^[11] for a basic primer on how to get started using crypto. Do not, however, use COINBASE. COINBASE will not allow you to send money to Counter-Currents. (Yes, it is that bad.)

For those brand new to cryptocurrency, you can even use your credit card to buy cryptocurrency via Moon Pay here. ^[12] Then you can send your cryptocurrency to our crypto addresses ^[10].

8. The Counter-Currents Foundation

Note: Donations to Counter-Currents Publishing are not tax deductible. We do, however, have a 501c3 tax-exempt educational corporation called The Counter-Currents Foundation. If you want to make a tax-deductible gift, please email me at [email protected] ^[13]. You can send donations by mail to:

The Counter-Currents Foundation
P.O. Box 22638
San Francisco, CA 94122
USA

9. Remember Us in Your Will

Finally, we would like to broach a very delicate topic: your will. If you are planning your estate, please think about how you can continue helping the cause even after you are gone. The essay “Majority Estate Planning ^[14]” contains many helpful suggestions.
