As someone who wants Wikipedia to stop begging me for money it doesn't really need, I want that to be the main complaint here. I don't want it to be about what the Wikimedia Foundation is spending that money on, because suddenly the story becomes a referendum on whether you like the subject of their donations or not. What they're spending on doesn't actually matter very much, and focusing on it turns the issue into a dog whistle. It makes this another battle in the ideological trench warfare we're locked in, where people choose sides not based on what's happening, but on their prior affiliations. Please, when talking about this, just make it about a company that has all the money it needs, but keeps asking you for more, and try as much as you can to leave the politics out of it.
