Tim’s take
For his own show, Patreon is simply revenue, and he treats leaving it or canceling it as absurd — he refuses a reported $20 million offer to jump to Substack rather than give it up 6:16 11:40, brushes off a listener's threat to cancel over Russia's invasion of Ukraine as no reason to stop paying five dollars a month 49:17, and openly brags about Patreon money just to annoy his stepmother 5:36. He also jokes about being years overdue for getting kicked off it himself 57:59.
When the subject turns to how Patreon treats other people, his tone flips to critical: he calls out the platform for deleting a Ukrainian fundraising page over vague weapons-funding rules 42:32 43:32, and sits with Whitney Webb as she describes being threatened with suspension over an off-platform article with no actual factual errors cited 42:00 46:04 1:10:35. So the take splits cleanly: good deal for him, bad actor toward everyone else 5:08.
