As we feared, the owner of the old domain has already betrayed the community and redirected the domain. After the redirect propagates, hundreds of thousands of loyal patriots may not know where to find home!

Spread the word that we've moved! Gab, Twitter, etc! Here's an example (Also, new Gab account for the new domain name):

Edit-

A lot of concerns have actually been answered by more technically savy users in the comments,

u/YouNeedVPN

No, they said if you were logged out, that was bad. And that the new site would likely blindly accept the first password provided. I was not logged out. My browser does not remember passwords, so it could not have logged me back in. Or... It's all bullshit and it's been compromised for a while already. Probably back when that 'hold the line' lie started.

u/jslenterprises

the cookie is still valid, which means that the front end hosts are the same, the back end db is the same. URL may be different, but everything else is the same. Even the ssl cert is the same.

u/ireallylikedogs2

Yep. The fact the domain changed and SSL didn't freak out is a good thing. To every pede that doesn't know what that means... it means a ton of extremely annoying extra measures on your computer designed to warn you if something's amiss, aren't ringing. And trust me, they got super annoying the past 2 years. So I feel safe. The token is still valid, the cert is good, AND the domain name changed... even the most secure site will freak out if you change a domain name, unless you've set up a line of trust. Well it looks like they setup a line of trust. So there.

EDIT-

Dusted off the old poorly underused, but verified, thedonaldreddit Gab account for additional verification:

Edit- As far as media posts go, it's fixed for new posts, being worked on for old ones.

Also why would the old owner betray us like this now? None of this sounds right. If he's afraid, he can either handover OR leave the current redirect to this site alone.

You don't need to be on the site to redirect a domain, that can all be done by someone who has never loaded this site into a browser.

DNS and domains and all of that operate in a completely different space as the actual site.

It is starting to sound like he was betrayed more than him betraying them.

How does all this redirecting work? Redirect wars begun, they have? Why would I consistently be redirected to patriots.win and nowhere else?

In the WSJ article it seems they discovered who owned the domain.. I guess he got under tremendous pressure.

Imagine having your name linked to this site. You probably get offered big amounts of money to literally sell out, threatened by sjw lawyers or have your family harassed. Or most likely, all of them at once.

I can never remember how to spell that

I always forget too. So I use the mnemonic "badakathcare". It really helps.

I mean, he was recently on AdamCast IRL, so it's not exactly secret or like WSJ did any investigative work

I'm listening to the interview right now. Lmao, he did a 2hr interview with wsj thinking it would help.

Yeah not sure why anyone would think that's a good idea

I found it odd that he'd be on AdamCast or any show.

I think it was discovered before that by some far leftist coder tech type. I remember reading his boast somewhere.

deplorableman 1 point ago +1 / -0

I think you're talking about some loser who found what company was doing the hosting.

labiator 1 point ago +1 / -0

Might have been that.

I've seen rumor that the owner of the site was getting scared and wanting to implement a lot of rules censoring perfectly legitimate topics of discussion... I'm not sure if that's true, but I've seen it floating around many times.

Yeah I guess the WSJ article was right about that part. Sounds like the owner cucked out hard.

You mean epik? They are the dns provider

Rofl, its the same shit since the reddit days. There's always been a rogue mod or two. Mods need to be completely transparent about this and start disclosing some info imo.

I think he was just on Adamcast IRL the other day (the owner of the former domain name) — I actually had it on, but it was while I was working so I wasn't really paying attention tbh
