I could spin out a conspiracy theory about this, but I’m not sure I actually think it’s less virtuous to be funded by a successful entrepreneur than to get your money from a tobacco heiress like the Arca Foundation. At the end of the day, the merits of the work stand or fall.
I think u should apply the same logic u outlined in one of ur pieces: Trumps socialism & Obama uni meddling is seen generously bc they of directional alignment. You are known to be sycophantic to rich & powerful directionally so u receive greater scrutiny about funding
Fatty Matty, look no further then your Gaza tweets for why people would trust a “reformed tobacco heiress” over you. You did liposuction before Ozempic… you’re a fucking loser man
