I was like, "New York City is the 1% though - this is one of the most privileged cities in the world, donating here is just the 1% donating to the 1% basically" and she was like, "but because it's the 1% the oppression structures here matter the most."

I was like, "at the end of the day, though, what matters is that we both have good intentions, even if we disagree about how to do the most good, we still want the same thing, we're on the same side." She was like, "I disagree."
