For the people raising issues about Patreon censorship, I agree. It's cause for concern. But I think the best way to combat the censorious tendency of tech companies is to "fight from the inside." Same philosophy with Twitter, which has also behaved dubiously at times.

The whole point of Patreon is to make sure contributors are too shit-scared to wander off the plantation. It’s mind manipulation. You’ll be self-censoring in no time, and you won’t even be aware of it.

I honestly don't feel I'm at risk of being banned. There are many people who are more "risque" than me who flourish on Patreon. I know one prominent person was banned, but I don't think that necessarily signals a platform-wide crackdown.
