If you're taking such a strong moral stance on CTF associated with CCC, then why
does donating or finances even matter?  You'll read and post here as long as it
is free, even though you're morally against CTF?

That's like saying you'll go to a nude dance club as long as your drinks are
free...  But if you have to pay for them, you'd never be caught dead drinking in
such an immoral and iniquitous place...

I've never seen one's obligations to do what they feel is morally correct so
tightly interwoven with their pocketbook.
