My point is just that the programming itself isn't funded by the government, they need to raise those funds.
Their primary sources of funding aren't motivated by traffic though.

Trying not to let these things get to me so much, but this one really does. This advocacy groups come across just as entitled if not moreso than your everyday Karen, doing a great harm to actual education and engagement. It's beyond offensive to good faith efforts.

"Project DROC" has around 1000 Twitter followers and their reply has 142 likes; the OP has 16k followers and the tweet itself has 122,000 likes. Do you think that reply is in good faith? Do you think posting it here was done in good faith? Do you think this interaction is worth spending time thinking about?

If you are asking me if I think this tweet was done in good faith, then yes I do. Small scale advocacy group 100% has an incentive to engage in this way in lieu of meaningful resources.
You're on to something with bi3 posting it here though.

It is my understanding the intent of this thread was a space to bring to light the excesses of modern social justice activism, one of the most frequent being obsessive one-upmanship in social signalling in order to gain attention in a crowded market. Another is argumentum ad hominem.
