How I Got Banned from the New “Free Speech” Twitter

This year, Counter-Currents is working to raise $300,000. Thus far, we are at $222,588.87, which is 74% of the way there. Thank you to everyone who has helped so far. We now have two weeks to raise $77,411.13. Let’s hope there’s a Christmas miracle! Full details on how to help appear below. But before that, a few words on what’s happening at Twitter.
I cheered when Elon Musk bought Twitter, promising to turn it into a free speech platform. I admit that I’ve never been crazy about Twitter. But it is one of the principal platforms hosting the liberal hive mind and its ever-shifting consensus, so anything that ventilates that echo-chamber is a good thing.
I have had two Twitter accounts. The first, NewRightAmerica, was for Counter-Currents. The second, GregJohnsonPhD, was my personal account. I never invested much in either account. Neither account had many followers. The Counter-Currents account was banned a few years ago. (I found out about the ban on Gab.) My personal account was banned a week ago for “hate.” This is the Tweet that got it taken down:
This is an excerpt from my essay “In Your Heart, You Know Ye’s Right.” It is protected political speech under the American First Amendment, which should be the sole “term of service” at the new Twitter. However, Twitter still regulates “hate speech,” in violation of the First Amendment.
The organized Jewish community is the principal driving force against the US First Amendment. Pointing that out, of course, is also defined as “hate speech.” It is also “hate speech” to note that the Anti-Defamation League is the principal force protesting against Musk’s promise to allow free speech on Twitter.
There’s no question that Musk has improved Twitter immensely. His exposure of the collaboration between Twitter, the Democratic Party, Left NGOs, and the American deep state to fix the 2020 election is particularly explosive. It is also quite satisfying to see antifa doxing accounts banned, and I hope there will be full transparency about the collusion between the old Twitter and such domestic terrorist groups as antifa and Black Lives Matter.
My fear, however, is that when the dust settles at Twitter, the Right-wing voices on the platform will be entirely “kosher,” which means that Jews will still be policing the outer boundaries of acceptable speech. This would be a disaster, because there’s no way to fix America without a free and open conversation about the Jewish question. Until Twitter is no longer ADL-occupied territory, Counter-Currents and other corners of the Internet will have to keep the First Amendment alive.
But don’t give up on Elon Musk. He’s obviously making it up as he goes along. He’s obviously more of a people-pleaser than a man of principle. But if he wants to save free speech, he eventually has to give the ADL a hard “no.”
Musk may well have been naïve about who he is up against when he first got involved in Twitter. He may not have understood who he was fighting when he declared war on “the woke mind virus.”
Of course, Jonathan Greenblatt of the ADL immediately knew where this was leading. But Elon Musk is a rocket scientist. Eventually, who he is up against is going to sink in.
There are many ways you can help Counter-Currents keep free speech alive:
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].
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:
- CashApp as $CounterCurrents! 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!
- Entropy, a site that takes donations and comments for livestreams. Visit our Entropy page 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].
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 or PDF 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 to go to our crypto donation page.
- Click here 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. Then you can send your cryptocurrency to our crypto addresses.
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]. 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” contains many helpful suggestions.
Thank you for your loyal readership and generous support.

I need a hot take on the Jews inside the so called dissident-right, namely Boris Epsteyn on Bannon. I stopped listening to Bannon because he can’t go 30 minutes without pandering to black and hispanics, but my main question is are the Jews purposefully infiltrating the dis-right to destroy it or are they genuinely trying to help our cause but just too naive or blindsided? Loomer seems more of a genuine force for good, so does Beatie, but the one close to Trump seem like they were undermining him the whole time, and continue to do so through networks like Bannon.
Despite the fact that she spoke at this years AmRen Conference, I see Laura Loomer as nothing more than a shameless, self promoting chameleon who piggybacks off of others.
I made a comment responding to HELP. I’m worried that I forgot to use my pseudonym RationaleHebe. If I did forget to use my pseudonym please do not publish my comment since I don’t want to get doxed.
It looks like all your comments are under your pen name.
Both. I’m Jewish and I genuinely hate what Jews are doing to White people, so I give shekels to dissident right causes and argue alt right talking points in my private life.
But Jews also try to join the dissident right and neuter it from the inside. Hazony promotes non-racial nationalism for Whites, but since he’s a Jewish ethnonationalist, his subversion was dead on arrival. Cofnas admitted race realism is true (infiltration), but then explained away Jewish influence with IQ (subversion). Loomer is an idiot, and she isn’t genuine: she is pro free speech and she wants BDS banned.
White nationalism is a White movement and Jews should not take leading roles in it. Any Jew who wants to lead is likely trying to infiltrate and subvert. But TRS goes too far when they deny good Jews exist.
In the long run Jews and Whites cannot coexist–separation is best. Honestly, I want an exception for myself since I prefer White people and White civilization–but even if I end up being excluded from White society I still support White nationalism, because if things continue as they are White civilization will be exterminated via diversity and I won’t enjoy it anyway.
This is a reply to Help.
Try writing a longer article about your views and attitudes. I’d love to read it.
Well said.
Rational Hebe,
You are a rare Jew.
Who is the Confas guy? Hazony and Shapiro are cringe in that they are hardcore Jignats when it comes to Israel but go straight for the Achilles heel of white Western civ which is individualism.
Do you also post on Amren, rational hebe? There are some other race realist Jewish posters there. One of them comes to mind who has the race realism but “hey, when it comes to Jews it’s because of IQ!” angle.
I think what gets on Jews nerves about noticing things is because the things that get noticed are often all true and in some cases it’s Jews who name the Jew first. When rightists criticize George Soros funding subversive causes it’s usually Jewish orgs like the ADL who fire the first shot in naming the Jew in saying the idea that George Soros has a lot of money through financial manipulations and uses that money for subversive causes plays into anti-Semitic tropes about Jews, money, and subversion… I mean, it’s sort of the ultimate deadpan joke at this point.
Anyway, I just think this paradigm of diaspora Jews LARPing as an oppressed minority while being hyperethnocentric about Israel which at this point with the new government that is about to take over is pretty much an alt-right Ethnostate is about to get shattered. Left with Jewish subversives cry social justice as they sterilize Ethiopian women and put the yoke of military occupation on the Palestinians. I think a lot of the hatred of Israel by alt-right types is a sort of projection in that it’s pretty much everything the alt-right wants.
It’s sort of sad how much baseless hate Jews in America have for people who built the country that gave them a place for their ancestors to escape persecution and 2-3 generations later have done very well for themselves. I’ve posted this before on here but the argueably Jewish subversion of the WASP birthright and blessing of America is a retelling of the Jacob and Esau story in the bible, the former of course being the father of the Jewish people and the latter in Jewish tradition the father of Rome which is associated with Christendom and Europe in general. Jacob of course at birth is grabbing and Esau’s ankle. One could see this story in the Torah from an anti-Semitic angle that self-destructive subversive behavior of Jews is just simply an innate behavior.
It also rings hollow when Jews talk about “inclusion” when the Jewish religion is pretty much entirely based on exclusion and separation between Jew and non-Jew.

Yes, White replacement is no theory, it is fact.
It’s nice to see a genuine Jewish hater who agrees with strict racial separation of Aryans from your tribe and other non-White races. It’s also good that you commit to this by donating to C-C.
Jews are ineligible for National Alliance membership, but those who feel as you do can be financial supporters, receive our monthly BULLETIN, and won’t be seen as “infiltrators” who would try to steer our movement away from its anti-Jew fundamentals. See: Join Us | National Alliance (natall.com)
We won’t play Good Jew/Bad Jew because, like Jews, we are group thinkers (despite Tucker Carlson’s silly “sworn opposition to group think”).
Greg, it’s no big surprise to me that you were banned from so-called “free speech” platforms Twitter and Gab. I’ve never been on either, nor on other Jew-owned/run social media. The Internet is a wonderful tool if in the right hands; unfortunately, most of it is not in our hands. Best wishes to White separatists who can promote our determined positions and our sites using media of those opposed to us. I’ll stick to our own, thanks.
Dear Greg, this is your long time reader and friend from overseas. Sorry for having not been around for a while, as my personal life and work were going through some hard time and major adjustments as a result of the chaotic and volatile domestic situation where I live. Though I have made a relatively generous donation earlier this year, in response to your calling, I would like to make another humble donation to CC. Since I am not in US and my circumstances objectively only allow me to donate through Entropy, that is the only means on which I can rely in order to make donations to you. But as I tried just now, when I clicked on the clickable “our Entropy page”, though the connection seemed to function normally, nothing actually showed up next. It’s just an all-blank page following my click, despite the fact that the “reload” button on it seemed to have already fully completed its process. I was left quite puzzled and powerless by that, as it means I won’t be able to make my donation regardless of my eager desire to do that. Could you please kindly help with an explanation and/or instruction, so that I would be able to successfully donate? Thank you.
It is good to hear from you again. Thank so much. Can you email [email protected]? She will be able to help you with a donation. You might try CashApp.
Hi Greg, thanks for your kind and timely suggestion! Contact made to Cyan already, and now await her guidance to complete my donation to CC. And, at this moment of one-week before Christmas, I would like to send my warmest and most heartfelt greetings and best wishes to you and all your colleagues at CC, and to all our friends and comrades among CC readers and supporters. Wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year in advance, and a safe, healthy, prosperous, eventful and fruitful 2023!
I am afraid that Mr Elon Musk has form on promising the Earth (or should that be Mars?) and not delivering. He has repeatedly been in trouble with the SEC for questionable behaviour through the many concerns in which he has an interest: the details are easy to review online. However admirable his initial stance on freedom of speech on Twitter may have been, recent developments have only served to illustrate the harsh truth is that Mr Musk is not to be trusted.
Oh look, NPR needs to make 10M in cuts for a 20M shortfall… Could it be that ever more woke posturing isnt paying off?
