I'm a person who likes to support causes and show more support for them (usually stuff for veterans and animals) but a specific Q post comes to mind in which he says to beware (or be mindful) of paytriots.
I like others want to be able to show support for a movement/cause and I also am an artist. Would designing things and selling them make me a paytriot?
Let me put the question back at you:
How did Apostle Paul earn his living?
Did he become a paystrian for accepting donations and living of the Good News? Did his miracle acts only take effect after donating a couple of coins in his coffers? Or did he first wet the appetite and then asked for dough, before imparting them the wisdom carefully hidden in Christ?
How about Jesus? He lived for three years without so much as an income. Granted, he had it easy, because he could have Peter catch a fish having a coin in its mouth.
@Richard-Engineer.
Operating a platform cost money. How is that earned?
However, what happens if you can access the data for free, without obligation to buy something?
In that sense, I would rather consider people like Ann Coulter to be a paytriot. Or Mittens.
Whether I agree with X-22 or not, is beside the point. If I don't want to listen to him, i won't be looking for his thoughts on certain events.
All right, friend, this was you flack for today. ;-)
