This is also why I don't take donations usually. I received a donation in December of $600 of gift cards for our radio show, a donation that I had turned down in November just the month before.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/disruptarian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/donate-november9th-part-1.jpg?fit=1024%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16112 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" \/><figcaption>Offer to donate in November<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/disruptarian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/donate-november10th-part2.jpg?fit=1024%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16113 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" \/><figcaption>This is the email I sent the next day declining the donation<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The person called me and said that she had already sent Christmas gifts for our kids in the form of gift cards and that I was not allowed to turn it down. So I spent them on Christmas.  I bought our kids' toys with the money. But then today (January 6th 2020) the same person informed me that she is mad that I reported some details about the Thirty Meter Telescope's budget issues.  She was upset that I rebroadcast the New Your Times article on the subject from December 23rd 2019.    She said I should not have &#8220;bashed the TMT&#8221;.   After some filthy words and accusations were sent my way, only two weeks after she sent the gift cards, she is asking for me to return them to her. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/disruptarian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/had-to-block.jpg?fit=1024%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16114 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I told her that I would return what I didn't spend on promoting the video that she asked me to produce for her.  In the video below I show where on facebook alone I spent $254 of that on ads to promote that media.  Then I also advertised on Youtube and Twitter.   When I calculated all of the money that I spent promoting this campaign, I spent over $700.

My fear was also the same.  Any time in the past 20+ years that I have been sent a donation for a media project that I am working on, regardless of what it is.

Someone wants to control my media or my behavior.   <br><strong>This is also why I encourage other people do their own media. <\/strong> So that there are no slaves and no masters when it comes to free expression.
