So if I run a advocacy group in favor of asset forfeiture but don’t have money to pay Zuck, then what? Screw my advocacy group? You want folks with money to have “more free speech” and don’t see anything wrong with that?

If I choose to print 1,000 flyers to hand out, I am using money to amplify my voice. Do you see anything wrong with this? Facebook Ads are no different.
- dfalfndfk 7y agoWe should cease pretending scale does not matter. Also that analogies are useful. Your flyer analogy is not useful because it does not _replace_ another flyer. A clear analogy would be buying advertising space in a newspaper. If you were to buy the entire newspaper's advertising space to amplify your voice I would definitely consider it an abuse of power and wrong.
