NR wants to sell merch. That alone should tell you everything you need to know.

I'm not opposed to selling merchandise because it winds up on TV at Trump rallies. I am opposed to exploitation and deception. Is there much difference between "buy my shirt" or "donate to my Patreon, etc."? Many of the research personalities attempt to publish their findings for a living - very difficult to pay the bills.

I agree. I have no issues with people trying to cover the cost of hosting, bandwidth, etc. In fact I remember that a few months ago, NR's site went down for a short time due to exceeding bandwidth allocation. I don't consider trying to make ends meet the same as Corsi-type profiteering.

However, I have become very disturbed by NR's posts and behavior since The Great Diaspora from Reddit. I did not like or appreciate his unfounded attacks on @srayzie and @Shizy. He didn't present any proof that anything was amiss with mods on this sub, but rather just pretty much said, "They're rotten. Trust me because I say so." I was already aware, before landing here, of Voat's reputation for hazing newfags, and I'm fine with that. But @srayzie reached out and welcomed us with open arms, and I thanked her for that.

My opinion of NR has definitely diminished because of all of this!

Hazing NewFags is a great way to ID shills out of the gate. Shills have many common traits and react very, very consistently 90% of the time.
