Regardless of my grammar he wasn’t under oath when he made those comments and no evidence was provided to support the claim. Additionally, he did not respond to comment as noted in the linked article.

It would make absolutely no sense for him to lie about such a thing.

““All my Republican donations were dark,” he said, referring to political donations that are not publicly disclosed in FEC filings. “The reason was not for regulatory reasons, it’s because reporters freak the f—k out if you donate to Republicans. They’re all super liberal, and I didn’t want to have that fight.””

Spoken like a true MAGA.

Additionally…

“Stuart McPhail, senior litigation counsel at Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, a watchdog group that filed an FEC complaint against Bankman-Fried last week, says his claims and the campaign finance charges could spur changes to election laws.

“There are a number of loopholes and limits that Sam Bankman-Fried was able to exploit that Congress can fix,” he tells TIME. “He directed money to influence elections but hid where that money came from.””

It just sort of seems like you don’t want it to be true so you won’t believe it’s true. If you have evidence that he lied, state that evidence.

How does that apply here? How is this a court of law, anyways? This is a subreddit. It’s not even a Wendy’s. You being wrong here doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things. The lengths you’re going to avoid being wrong tells me you’ve been down this path plenty before.

Is this like when someone points out racism and you say "YOU'RE the racist!"

No it’s cause a lot of Redditors like you are obsessed with “bootlicking” for some reason like you can’t think about anything else but bootlicking.. Maybe the thought of it intrigues you?

Yes, that's the exact same logic as when people say "Why do you keep talking about racism? Why are you obsessed with race? Maybe YOU'RE the racist?" It's Charlie Kirk logic.

It’s not hearsay if it came straight from Bankman-Fried.
