I still get tons of political calls, texts, and emails from donations I made around 2016 and 2020. Is there any organization I can use to donate money that won’t harass me in the future or sell my data to someone else who will?
(I got a text soliciting a political donation while I was typing this question!)
Why would you want to donate to a political organization? I don’t get it. If you don’t know of a political organization already that you want to support, why go out to find one?
Your donation could go to a different / better cause than a political party.
Exactly. For instance, OP could donate to me.
I left out specifics because I didn’t want this thread to become a political debates, but I want to support the people running against fascists, because the fascists will do a hell of a lot worse than sell my contact information. I’d just much rather do it without getting harassed.
I would recommend not using your regular email address or phone number. I think you might be required to give your real address, though.
I can understand wanting to remove the influence of money from politics. But as long as money is the main medium of influence, people not donating to political causes is removing the influence of people from politics.
