Its their company and they have the right to help fund the projects they want. Don't like it? Don't use their service
Whats the alternative, have the government force them to help fund projects they don't agree with? People only like freedom when it works out in their favor

"Kickstarter argued the description of the film submitted to the website, specifically the wording "pledge because of 1000s of babies stabbed to death," needed to be altered in order to comply with community standards." "Kickstarter CEO Yancey Strickler denies censoring Gosnell Movie and said the company was simply asking for compliance with community guidelines." Putting "1000s of babies stabbed to death" is some pretty inflammatory description for your pitch and Kickstarter deemed it against their guidelines. We'll never know if Kickstarter was hiding behind their policy as some kind of leftist agenda since the people immediately got on their crosses and started screaming "censorship!" without trying to comply. Smart move on their part, they're getting the attention (money) they wanted on their Indiegogo fund. They're basically targeting their demographic for money now instead of just letting it marinate on Kickstarter ETA: I noticed "1000s of babies stabbed to death" is changed to "In a 30 year killing spree, it is thought he killed 1000s of babies" on the Indiegogo pitch. Most curious huh? |

Honestly, with how that was worded.....I'd probably have booted it too. I don't play with extremism. If you want to make a pro-life film, go ahead, but you don't need to go all militant.
It's just like the guys who show up to college campuses with a 2 story, 4 sided box that has images of dead babies all over it......it's one thing to have a message. It's a whole other thing to go derp with it. They derped, and the people who submitted this film derped big time. Be couth, or expect people to get PO'd about things you did, not your message (which is the intent). I ripped the guys with the 2 story box of gore a new one for what they did for a good 10 mins, and I take the same position with this. Get rid of the extreme language, images, and all that shit....and I bet your message would come across better. |

Don't forget the wedding photographer that was forced by the New Mexico Supreme Court to pay $7000 to a gay couple for declining to photograph their same sex marriage. They were told by the court that surrendering their freedom is 'the price of citizenship.' |

They refused, cried "Discrimination!", and declared Kickstarter a baby-killing communist lefty. They claim Kickstarter also discriminated against other pro-life projects but there is no links or evidence listed in the article But drama and press is good way to fund your movie, very clever |

I was responsible (in a way) for them actually POSTING their anti-gun policy I signed up when developing a mag, they had NO POSTED policy about firearm parts or accessories, only actual firearms, About 4 weeks in they locked it up, no notice to me. THEN They stated they would KEEP the contributors $$ for up to 6-8 weeks AFTER the scheduled end of the fund raising , "to invesitgate" I raised all kinds of heck , they did refund within a week. I kinda suspected all those places were commie hippies. |

They're all at least psuedo leftist in nature. That being said, their company their rules.
I have a Kickstarter running atm that is slightly related to things we're interested in that was approved by them. And I have seen several others that are at least on the periphery of the Second Amendment and firearms loving world, granted they rarely get funded. Go search some keywords and you'll see several projects, at least old unfunded ones. |

I kinda suspected all those places were commie hippies. We should talk. They CRUSHED my project after I signed on with them and had raised $50K - because I had firearms ACCESSORIES in my rewards packages. No knives or weapons - flashlights and optics (including binoculars). This was clearly okay according to their terms, but they stood their ground. They seized 12% of my funds raised because I failed to hit my targets (go figure), and I seriously considered pursuing it. I would be interested if our projects happened around the same time. It's one thing if we both hit them when they were adjusting their policy. It's another if they intentionally left it vague - and seized funds over a broad period of time. Here's a nice article about ‘Lights Out Saga’ Faces Funding Hurdles Over Gun Company Sponsorship |

Papers can choose not to print your story. Photographers should be able to choose their clients. Kickstarter can choose not to have projects that involve firearms (while making a killing off action & adventure movies, but I digress). The conversation changes when it becomes the government - whether intervention or them censoring content. I don't think that's what this conversation is about though. Capitalism? They have the right to do that, and I have the right not to spend my money with them. Kickstarter and IndieGoGo WILL lose money from me (probably $20K to $50K) because of their anti-freedom stances. So be it. I'm not following who you think needs to look up definitions? |

Quote HistoryQuoted: someone needs to look up the definition of 'censorship'. and probably 'capitalism' while you're at it. Once again capitalism allows consumers to judge products and share their experiences with others. I am judging the Product of Kickstarter and their so called values that they espouse. It is no different than letting other gun owners no about Dicks sporting goods betrayal and buckling to leftists. The left will boycott those they disagree with which is their right as long as they do not get the government involved. Yet we have people on here who will talk others down for raising concerns about leftist companies that act contrary to conservative ideas.

Quote HistoryQuoted:
Their business, their rules. Their money, their rules. Thinking that you're entitled to their money is bullshit. Don't like that you got denied? Suck it up and fund your own damn movie.
sounds like Kickstarter was exercising their 1st amendment freedoms. Exactly so, and now the good people of Arfcom are exercising their first amendment rights to call them hypocrites and leftists. You see how that works, or do I need to use smaller words? |
