Upsetting. Your proposals and tactics are super compelling.
It seems that (because of the long-term relational nature of Washington), donations toward CAIP are much more valuable in the world where CAIP lasts a long time. This makes me unwilling to donate alone, but much more willing to join a “compact” in which, for instance, the money isn’t disbursed unless a certain total $ amount is raised. Or more willing to donate if something else happened to make CAIP survive.
This seems similarly valuable to Lightcone. If the community comes through, I want to be a part of it. But something beyond this post seems required.
You can donate to Manifund if you like, which provides a sort of compact in that if we raise less than $50k, we don’t get any of it. If there are several other people who feel the same way as you do, then we can find a way to run a similar campaign that has a higher ‘minimum.’

Thanks, Malcolm, I appreciate it.
