    Holy shit, that second bullet point. The hundreds of thousands of people donating small sums of money are somehow less representative of the electorate than the two hundred people donating over a million dollars each, because reasons (just not mathematically sound ones)

      The second bullet point is itself a paradox. By definition hundreds of small donations would represent the electorate better than individual large donors.

      It’s the 4th bullet point that gets me. “We should spend more time going to right-wing-dominated spaces (and also restaurants)”. Because only right-wing communities are “real”. Anything lefties do is elitist.
