One of the foundational sites of the manosphere and the Alt-Right, Chateau Heartiste, which was hosted on blogging platform Wordpress, has been shut down.
Instead of the thousands of articles that the site accumulated over the years, there is just a terse message from Wordpress:
This blog has been archived or suspended in accordance with our Terms of Service. For more information and to contact us please read this support document.
The entire site has been erased from the internet.
Really, this is worrying because in the past Wordpress only banned porn and criminal activity, and tried to avoid awkward censorship issues. This latest stifling or free speech may be a signal that Big Tech is about to get even more Orwellian than before.
Kind of ironic that shortly before the site was shut down, it ran this article:
Some of the site's content has been archived HERE. Enjoy it while you can.
