> Some people worry that we are reviewing content not posted on Patreon. As a funding platform, we don’t host much content, but we help fund creations across the internet. As a result, we review creations posted on other platforms that are funded through Patreon.

So if I want to get someone suspended, I dig through their history, find an instance where they used a word ten years ago that has now become "hate speech", create my own Patreon, and post their comments in my Patreon?

Also in an interview a year ago [1], Patreon's CEO explicitely promised they would not do what they just did.

But in this case they are characterising as hate speech the simple use of slang, even when there is no hateful intention. This is just the political correctness ayatollahs becoming over-zealous, which I find hard to justify and certainly won't support with my money.
