Daily Stormer The Most Censored Publication in History
Yesterday, I commented on a New York Post story about Andrew Tate’s arrest on trumped-up “sex trafficking” charges that claimed the Romanian police had tracked him to his home through a pizza box featured in his video response to Greta Thunberg.
They wrote:
The jab prompted Tate to make his ill-fated video response, which led Romanian police in full tactical gear to storm Tate’s villa with a battering ram.
I said:
That isn’t actually what happened. It’s weird the media just makes stuff up like this. The cops knew where he was. He’d been cooperating with authorities. He wasn’t on the run to the point where they had to track his pizza deliveries.
I didn’t think much about it, because the news makes these kinds of fake claims all the time, and I usually just respond with that sort of paragraph rather than track down the original source.
I knew that everyone knew Andrew Tate was in Romania, because I’ve followed him a bit, and was aware that he’s been very open about that fact, recording various videos there. It is also obvious to me that this case comes from the US authorities putting pressure on Romania, orchestrating the persecution. The case is ostensibly based on testimony of various women who claim to have been trafficked and enslaved, and this is something where it is just obvious that US cops would have been rounding up the girls and coaching them on how to testify.
It turns out the original source for the pizza hoax was this:
“Alejandra Caraballo” is a tranny who is constantly posting things he made up on Twitter which are then reported by the media.
He posted a whole thread surrounding this claim, which is still up.
I don’t want to single out the New York Post for citing this. It is a tabloid that regularly reports fake news, but they report it from other news sources, not from random tweets. The claim was circulating widely after Newsweek picked it up from the tranny tweet and ran this headline on December 29:
When people started to mock the claim, Newsweek did a follow-up the next day, debunking their own fake news reporting:
This story somehow made its way to the Romanian media from that tranny’s account, which prompted Romanian police (who presumably do not speak English and would not know this hoax was circulating in English media) to issue a statement saying that the pizza boxes were not related to his arrest. Ramona Bolla, a spokesperson for DIICOT, said in a statement to the AP that the claim is “funny,” adding “but no.”
The tranny Caraballo then posted an entire thread explaining why he did this hoax.
I’ve gotten quite a bit of pushback about my pizza box tweet. I want to explain my thought process and acknowledge the fair criticism. I had no idea this would go this insanely viral.

This shows how a fake news hoax works, with the mainstream media willing to just take the word of random trannies and report it as fact.
That same tranny had been the source for the much more ridiculous – and much more widely-circulated – claim that all of the “critical engineers” at Twitter had resigned following Elon Musk’s takeover of the site, and that this would lead to the site being forced to shut down.
CNN and other TV news stations were doing large reports on that hoax. No one ever apologized.
The pizza hoax also shows the problems with reporting the news in an age where the media completely refuses to do its most basic duties. Journalists are very lazy people who mostly just copy things off of Twitter.
In my article about Tate’s arrest, I also cited sources that turned out to be incorrect, which claimed that the primary charge against Tate was related to money laundering, rather than sex trafficking. However, my approach was much different than Newsweek’s approach, for several reasons. Most importantly, I did not cite this as a fact, I simply cited tweets from people associated with Tate, and said that this was being reported. There is a big difference between stating something as a fact and not even giving the source for the claim, and giving the source and saying “this is what this source says.”
Furthermore, I also corrected the article and put a note at the bottom, which was the standard for internet news reporting for decades before recently. For whatever reason, the mainstream media just leaves up posts with bad information forever, so that they can later be viewed by people who do not know a correction has been issued.
The fact is: the Daily Stormer is a much more accurate news website than any of the mainstream sites, mostly due to wanting to report things accurately, something that the mainstream media just doesn’t care about at all; in fact, they are hostile to the truth. We also have a real policy of due diligence that the mainstream media lacks. A lot of the fake news in the media is purposefully malicious, but at least as much of the wrong information they report is a result of laziness and incompetence.
