Eventbrite is converged

Never even bother trying to work with any company that has a Trust & Safety department. We had the Big Bear’s fall comedy tour all set up and ready to open for ticket sales tomorrow on Eventbrite when Trust & Safety leaped in at the last minute to shut it down:

I recieved a reply today from our content management team and regretfully they are not allowing us to proceed. Per email below.

[Redacted], after doing some research on Owen Benjamin I would not consider him appropriate for Eventbrite and his content would be considered a violation under our policies. Even if his event listings would not contain violative content, we also consider off-platform behavior of our creators within our evaluation.

The SJW thought police are an absolutely virulent corporate cancer. They literally work to prevent the organization from doing business with anyone of whom they disapprove. This is the second time this year that a company I have been repeatedly assured will be reliable and professional has turned out to be the exact opposite.

Fine. We’ll build our own platforms. Again, and again, and again, if necessary. And we’ll be sure to keep the corrupt little creatures out.
