For ten years Gab has operated on a principle that the institutional Right finds incomprehensible: power flows from the people, not the purse strings of oligarchs.
We have never taken a dime from venture capital. We have never bent the knee to billionaires or any part of the ruling regime be it the media, congress, activist groups, academics, or anyone else. We regularly tell foreign governments to pound sand. We have survived blacklisting, deplatforming, and financial warfare because ordinary Americans—plumbers, teachers, veterans, homeschooling mothers—decided that protecting free speech was worth $10 a month.
We are proving that a parallel tech infrastructure can exist outside the gravity wells of Silicon Valley and Wall Street, but proving it is not enough. We must scale it. We must formalize it. We must build The People’s Patronage, a decentralized network of support that funds the infrastructure of liberation and incubates the talent that the regime wants starved into silence.
Look at the political discourse of 2026. The ideas that dominate the right-wing mainstream today from national sovereignty, Christian Nationalism, the Great Replacement, the critique of central banking, the rejection of woke capital, Israeli influence, and the understanding that America is not a “proposition nation” but a homeland among many others. All of these were considered radioactive just few years ago. From 2016-2022, you could not say these things on Twitter without suspension. You could not say them on YouTube without demonetization. You could not say them in the pages of National Review without professional exile.
But you could say them on Gab.
We were the laboratory. We were the incubator. When no other platform would host the truth, Gab provided the servers, the distribution, and the community. We nurtured the ideas, the memes, and the voices that have now migrated upward, reshaping the Overton window and forcing the mainstream right to adopt positions that were “extremist” when we first hosted them.
That did not happen by accident. It happened because Gab existed. Gab existed because you funded it when every institution said we should die.
Now imagine what we could incubate over the next decade with proper resources. Imagine the filmmakers, the educators, the tech builders, and the cultural architects we could fund if our patronage network reached critical mass. The ideas we are planting today will be the political consensus of 2030, but only if we have the infrastructure to protect them while they are still seeds.
We are in the middle of an AI revolution. This technology changes everything and Gab AI is at the forefront of it, building the one and only AI model that is trained to support Christian and Western values. These tools can, will, and are being used by incredibly talented people to write, make films, art, and memes.
The one advantage we have over the left is that the young people on the right have fully embraced AI while the young people on the left have largely mocked and scoffed at it. Young people on the right are becoming masters of this technology and using it to seed our ideas into the culture. We cannot underestimate the impact of this work. We need to be supporting these people and that’s exactly what Gab AI is doing and what you are doing indirectly when you support Gab.
You need to understand the terrain of patronage. The Left does not win with arguments. They win with payrolls. They have captured the federal government’s purse, which operates as a trillion-dollar slush fund for NGOs, media conglomerates, and academic factories. They have captured Silicon Valley, which prints money for “foundations” that manufacture consent. They have captured Hollywood, Wall Street, and the arts.
They have a massive patronage network that identifies talent at age sixteen, funds it through university, and employs it for life in exchange for total ideological conformity.
What does the Right have? Political campaigns that flare and fade, leaving nothing behind but debt and disappointed voters. Think tanks that “think” but never build. Donors who write checks to politicians who retire to K Street, having conserved nothing.
This is a patronage desert.
Gab adapted in this environment. We built a cactus: ugly, spiky, impossible to kill, surviving on the meager rainfall of grassroots support from the people. But we were never meant to be a cactus. We were meant to be a forest. A complex ecosystem where the people fund the platform, and the platform hosts and supports the builders and creators, who then produce the culture that changes the nation.
This is the vision: The People’s Patronage.
Here is how it works. You subscribe to GabPRO, make a donation to Gab, run ads for your business on Gab, or subscribe to Gab AI Plus. That support does not merely pay for servers. It creates a war chest. With that war chest, Gab can support the creators who cannot get a hearing anywhere else. We support the filmmaker blacklisted by Hollywood. We host the journalist exiled from corporate media.
We become the Medicis of the right, but instead of one banking family, our patronage comes from thousands of committed citizens. Instead of marble cathedrals, we build digital ones. Instead of frescoes, we distribute and back films, memes, and codebases. We need to put our money where our mouth is.
This is already happening, but on a starvation diet. We have promoted artists, creators, and builders over the years. We have kept servers online for voices that would otherwise be silenced. But we are doing it with one hand tied behind our backs because too many who benefit from this ecosystem still believe the lie that “someone else” will pay for it.
There is no one else. There never was. No billionaire is coming to save us. No venture capitalist will ride in on a white horse. The people who built Gab understood this from day one. We depend on you, and only you. That is our superpower. It makes us un-buyable. It makes us un-controllable.
But superpowers still require fuel and right now, we are running on fumes while trying to power a cultural revolution.
Let me be direct about what stands between the status quo and the next phase of this fight.
If 5% of Gab’s active users subscribed to GabPRO or made a donation to our cause—one in twenty of you—we would generate the revenue to not merely maintain this platform, but to expand it exponentially. We could build for another decade. We could seed the content creators who will produce the entertainment your children actually need. We could become the undeniable technology and communication infrastructure for a parallel society.
Five percent. That is the barrier between managing the decline and accelerating the reconquest.
Right now, many of you are still funding the enemy. You bank with their institutions. You subscribe to their propaganda channels. You buy their products. You are financing the very machine that seeks to grind you into dust, while the one platform that actually fights for you operates on a shoestring.
This is strategically incoherent. You cannot fund your executioner and expect a savior to appear. You must redirect that capital to your own infrastructure run by people who you know share your values and fight every day to defend and protect those values. You must become a patron of the parallel economy.
Gab is moving the needle. We have dragged the Overton window rightward by simply refusing to censor the truth. We have provided the forum where the ideas of 2030 are being forged today. We have done this for ten years on pure resilience and grassroots oxygen.
But resilience has limits. We are ready to scale. We are ready to fund the next generation of culture-makers. We are ready to become the patronage network that the Right so desperately lacks.
But we cannot do it alone.
This is the covenant: You support Gab. Gab supports the builders and creators who are moving the needle. The builders and creators shift the culture. The culture restores the nation. No intermediaries. No elite gatekeepers. Just a straight line from your wallet to the front lines of the this spiritual and cultural war we are in.
