@camilla
Just to clarify... Nothing about that thread influenced me. I've been answering #mutualaid requests here for ~2 years and had answered one just 6 hours before those threads started
I do an order of magnitude more on GoFundMe because it takes my credit card. If I answer fewer here, it's bc I don't do Venmo or CashApp and so few accept Paypal
But also, I don't view #MastodonForHarris as a waste of money. Contrary to what that thread suggests, there are plenty of folks who give to both
@kims FWIW, the anger is not really directed at folks like you who donate to both - but the orders of magnitude difference in how much money is going to each, show that there *has to be* a significant amount of folks who are donating to the campaign but not to mutual aid. Just nobody knows who they are precisely.
