I don't see if it's mention in this article (there's a hard paywall), but notably Sam Harris, among other things previously one of the top authors on Patreon, quit the platform over this incident. His own explanation for why starts around 5 minutes into this podcast: https://samharris.org/podcasts/drive-interview-peter-attia/ https://samharris.org/podcasts/drive-interview-peter-attia/ Briefly, while he doesn't defend what Carl Benjamin said, he himself feels he can't financially rely on a platform that boots controversial authors from the platform.
