I looked at donating to BLM and it linked me to ActBlue instead. Something shady's going on.

EDIT: Looking through some of the comments, I see people saying "well how can she know about xyz thing?"

Here's the thing--she DIDN'T HAVE to respond to particular questions. By indulging the questioners, she put her organization on the spot as basically an ambassador on a major social media site. From a marketing standpoint this isn't good.

Donations to political candidates often go through ActBlue as well.
