Is it possible to buy bitcoins anonymously and store them directly into Sam Harris' wallet? This would solve all creepy political de-platforming issues forever.
No. You must have your own wallet, because transactions take time.
He had almost 9,000 Patrons when he deleted it, making it the 11th largest account at the time.

This looks like just the beginning, unless Patreon changes course in a significant way. The whole IDW are discussing their options and looking at creating a new platform.

I actually deleted my Patreon account yesterday for the same reason. I was supporting Sam Harris through Patreon, but I immediatly set up a direct feed with paypal, takes two minutes. And I hope others will do the same.

Also Jordan Peterson who is another of their promenient users mentioned that he is working on an alternative solution to Patreon.
