This isn't quite correct.

Peterson wasn't removed, he left in protest, along with Sam Harris and others, after Carl Benjamin ("Sargon of Akkad") was removed over what Patreon considered to be a policy breach. [1]

I'm not expressing any position on whether or not the Carl Benjamin ban was valid, I'm just wanting to correct the record.
