   The color sperging is a bit much innit?
   
   If they had made the lowest tier black and $500 chairman circle white you know all the same people would be bitching "so if I want to support the party I'm a nigger unless I'm willing to shell out $500 a month? Typical grifters"

     Monthly dues at the level you can afford, don't see how that's unprofessional.
     
     Personally think they should have asked for more money-- in the form of fundraisers for specific events, merch, selling additional products like soap or coffee or even selling one off podcast series or audiobooks, compiling articles and speeches into books, etc. Stuff where you know exactly where the money is going or get something in return. Easier to justify that than paying in return for "trust me bro" and not seeing much to show for it because these things take time.
     
     And maybe make one of them fundraisers for an accountant and occasional press releases to show where the money is going so everything is on the up and up. Even if just internally for members.
     
     Antisemites are cheaper than kikes so many would cry grift at all this, doubly so after recent events. But doing anything (or something) in this country ain't cheap. It's gotta happen if you want growth.
     
     Me and my brother do a scholarship thru our wrestling team. It's not funded by the monthly fees we charge for our club, that hardly pays enough to be worth our time. It comes from running a golf tournament every summer. Running a week long camp in the fall pays almost as much as the 6 month club. Private coaching sessions are gravy, $100-200/hour easy. Diversity (oh gawd) of revenue streams is a strength. And usually easier to sell an existing customer/supporter more of what they want than to try and pick up new business.
     
     But yeah TLDR yes maybe some transparency would help but simply asking to be paid for their time and effort shouldn't be a problem

     I don't understand why this one is $100-$1000 when the minimum for the next one is $500. Also the whole tier system thing just seems unprofessional to me. What they really did was set up a Patreon page, effectively. But hey, I don't know all the kinds of legal hoops they have to jump through to raise money so that might have been the best option.

     I don't mind them asking for money, I just think their presentation on the website resembles something closer to a YouTube channel's Patreon page. And that's not far off, considering all anyone seems to have really gotten was TRS subscriptions.
