If you want to look at the bright side, not saying you should but if you want to, I think things like this are not exactly accurate as a representation of a "popular movement" per se, simply because this online donation stuff tend to be dominated by big whale donations and many small token donations.
The article mentions 40k donations so about $50 average which I believe is not trivial to throw away just based on ideology.
So yeah maybe this is really just capturing the most :frothingfash: of part of the audience.
I know probably stupid and meaningless so yeah it sucks.
This is the one that broke me.
I honestly mean it. This nation is so cruel. The people so hateful. How could we be anything better?
It’s been weeks and I can’t get out of the rut this lynching and the poplar reaction to it have created In my soul.

I haven't heard much about it outside of twitter. No idea what the popukar sentiment actually is.
I heard about it from most relatives, a few friends. I assume it’s basic conservative talking points now.
Literally gwt out if you can. No use staying on a sinking ship
