i need people to seriously understand that if you manage to raise 500,000 USD for a political donation, you will be doing massively more good in many ways if you just give that money away, in 1000 to 2000 usd blocks to people who are homeless and need to make a deposit on housing, there is no political donation that will ever do remotely as much good as helping one homeless person get a warm place to sleep

100,000 usd is pocket change to members of the privileged millionaire class, especially in a rich country like the ~~north American empire~~ united states, for people who are unhoused, working multiple minimum wage jobs, or in an exploited country, even just 2000usd can be life changing. If you are looking to build political power and make allies, nationally and internationally, pay someone's rent, buy them groceries, help with medical bills. Politicians are doing just fine.
