Okay, so I looked at computers in the store and couldn’t really find what I was looking for. Going to order one online.

I was able to set-up an old laptop for the time being. Slow as hell, but at least it works.

The site shouldn’t be noticeably crappier during this period, unless you are paying really close attention.

For the time being, I’ll be using this laptop.

Some guy on /pol/ in a thread that weev was posting in about the printer scandal accused me of faking server costs for shekels. Which makes me sick. The guy actually emailed me, and I remember the exchange – he offered to help, but couldn’t confirm his identity so I was like “yeah whatever.” Because obviously I can’t give server access to some anonymous guy from an email.

I see other people saying similar things. And while I can take any attack – trust me, I get attacked a lot – this one is one I should take the time to refute.

My Amazon server was costing about a thousand dollars a month, plus I was paying two-hundred for Cloudflare. I would never lie about something like that. I posted screenshots. If I was a liar trying to make money dishonestly, I promise you I would be doing something other than this. Probably, if I possessed zero morals, I would be a televangelist. I think I would be pretty good at that, and would be making millions and flying around in private jets like Benny Hinn.

The suggestion that spending 70 hours a week writing on and managing a Nazi website to get donations is totally nonsensical.

Anyway, I want to make it very clear that I make virtually no money whatsoever, and am forced to ask for shekels just to buy a new laptop. When I should be making tens of thousands of dollars a month on advertisement, all things being equal, given the traffic I’ve got.

But the advertisers have all blocked me. We are working on some ads from less scrupulous companies, but even if we get them together, they pay so much less than systems like Google Adsense that there still won’t be much money.

Very few people donate. Most of the money comes from a few individuals who send a lot of money, like this one guy who sent a thousand a week ago then sent two-hundred yesterday. This is not ideal. Ideally, every daily visitor would send $2-5 a month, and I’d have a half million a year or so which I could use to turn this into a massive and professional project. But that obviously isn’t happening, and I have no reason to believe it ever will. Maybe if I get credit card processing, it will be better, I don’t know. I don’t think signing up for Google Wallet is much more complicated than just entering a credit card number. But of course that seems to only work in the US, and only 40% of our audience is in the US.

For the record, yes, this is a full time job and I do use contributor money to pay rent and buy pork products. If I didn’t do that, I would have to work, which would mean I wouldn’t be able to run the site. When people claim that I shouldn’t ask for donations, what they are actually saying is that I should stop running the site. I am certain that it is obvious to the reader that this is not a part time job.

I write a lot.

I live very simply, due to a lack of money. Anyway, I really don’t really care. All I ever think about is the cause and this project. Okay, sometimes I think about girls. But all of my personal energy goes into this work, and all I want to be able to do is continue this work and expand the project. There literally isn’t anything else in the world I genuinely care about.

There are a lot of other things I could be doing with my life which would result not only in vastly more money, but also so much less hassle. If I was a televangelist, for instance, Israeli-trained FBI agents wouldn’t visit me.

This is a great sacrifice I am making. I don’t toot my own horn very often, as self-horn tooting is not my style. But it is necessary for people to understand the reality of what is going on here. And apparently, to some people, it isn’t obvious.

Thanks to all who donated yesterday. It almost covered the full cost of a new machine. When I get the new machine next week, I will post photos.

I love you all, and I am eternally humbled by my position here at this website. George Lincoln Rockwell said that the only meaning in life is to find something you care about and fight for it, and to have as much fun as you can while doing it.

I am blessed to be able to do this.

Finally, I want to add that many people send emails explaining that they couldn’t donate. Don’t do that, or even think about it if you don’t have money. I understand what that is like, and I don’t want to make anyone feel burdened or uncomfortable. We will eventually figure out how to fund the project and expand it. Again, ads should be coming, and that should help some.

Thank you all – supporters and non-supporters alike.

Despite the endemic shekels crisis, we are getting bigger every day. And there is no end in sight.

Hail Victory.
