I am so happy to help give oppressed and marginalized people a voice. I saw the video, and those bloggers are impacted on multiple aces of oppression, and such people are far to often ignored in society. I love patreon and I have sponsored multiple creators for the past year. Lately, I have seen many deserving people setting up patreon accounts.

The only problem I am having is that I cannot afford to support all of the very worthy caused that I want to. I am planning on ending my patreon donations to Matt Dillahunty, Rebecca Watson, and Midi Miriglovsky and putting that money towards supporting the Burning Bridges Blog Network.

While I really enjoy the work that Matt, Rebecca, and Miri do, they are all economically and educationally privileged. They all have platforms where people will see their work, regardless of my donations. r
The Burning Bridges bloggers are far more marginalized, and without our support their voices won’t be heard at all. I hope others will consider doing the same and send donations to those that need them the most.
