    One $5 donation buys you a decade of nagging donation emails and a bunch of capitulating spineless politicians.

      No see, those only come from legitimate organizations that you donate to, because they know they owe their entire existence to people like you giving them five dollars a month.

      Those political donation scams? They’re all fly by night, and you rarely see the same one twice. Similar ones, sure, but never the same one. Because they do their smash and grab, and then they get the fuck out. And do it again under a different name.

      My inbox is already full of nagging emails about donations since donating to wikipedia. Don’t need a second firehose.
