Ravelry — a popular knitting and crocheting online community that boasts millions of users — is banning forum posts, projects, patterns, profiles and all other content that “constitute support” for President Trump or his administration.

“We cannot provide a space that is inclusive of all and also allow support for open white supremacy,” an announcement posted Sunday on the site read. “Support of the Trump administration is undeniably support for white supremacy.”



“We are not endorsing the Democrats nor banning Republicans,” the announcement continued. “We are definitely not banning conservative politics. Hate groups and intolerance are different from other types of political positions.”


“Has someone hacked your account?” one Twitter user asked.

“This is very real,” read a reply by Ravelry to its 117,000 Twitter followers.

I understand banning individual users who start to peddle anti Zionist and white power shit but trump is not a white supremicist and is very much pro Israel, much to the annoyance of the anti Zionists that lurk here I'd imagine.

Bullshit.

But it's why the president, among others on the sociopolitical right, needs to be even more upfront and candid about liberal and conservative, leftwing and rightwing.

In the interview he did with George Stephanopolous the other day, not once did Donald Trump refer to the leftwing slant of ABC's "reporter," which was clearly evident during portions of his conversation with the president.

If too many people continue to treat one another's ideology as similar to talking about people's bad breath or body odor, the idiocy, dishonesty and lack of ethics - and legitimate compassion - of liberals will remain even more entrenched.

We are inclusive, but we don't want conservatives.

Whites who advocate for whites are supremacists. Blacks, Asians, J00ishes, Latinos...... who advocate for their ethnic groups are civil rights activist, and no way supremacists.

What an evil, slimly ideology cultural Marxism is.

The website isn’t just for old women.

Remember to be prepared and well rounded, women need to know how to crochet, knit etc. It’s not for only old women, that is unless men only want young women that play with makeup and watch videos all damn day?

That website was actually excellent for all types of patterns when you are a prepper.

Because when you make your own sweaters, socks, bedding by hand it had fun and varied patterns you could download and store from many different countries. Great if you own sheep and a spinning wheel.

But I never even knew there was a forum or even discussions going on. For normal people you find your patterns, download them, and turn it off.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74709691


Not sure why you are confused.

Prepared means having been prepared for a situation......before SHTF, not “when”.

Various patterns have been transferred to archival paper already. Notice our grandparents knit sweaters, socks and hand made clothing, it’s nice when you are an expert knitter to have varied patterns for different seasons.

SHTF sceniero will have many ....truly... prepared people in rural or bugout areas ready to live as our grandparents did over 150 yeas ago. No electricity, water well, and a self -sustaining family farm. Which includes not only security/protection in various forms. But the ability to make your own clothing without going to populated areas areas, wasting ammo or arrows trying to raid stores. Clothes wear out with time, especially if a man is actually using them and working hard outdoors.

A vintage spinning wheel, treadle sewing machine, massive loom to make fabric or rugs, the ability to make puffer coats from scratch, the ability to not only raise sheep, but keep them healthy, shear and process fur and meat when needed.

totally agree. i am a prepper at heart and also a knitter, crocheter, weaver and spin my own yarns. grow as much of my own food, bake etc. One thing of late with all the nonsense going on is i am making extras of things to have on hand in case someone needs something. like socks etc.
also i deleted my ravelry account this morning when i saw they were doubling down on their stand.

I just deleted my account. I was a member there for maybe 10 years or so. I had many many knitting patterns for sale on Ravelry, and also marketed my hand dyed yarn in a group there and with ads. I made a lot of money through and for that site. There's no real alternative.
