Is this satire? Because it makes no sense otherwise, given that even SBF himself admitted to donating to both sides in nearly equal amounts. Just being more lowkey about donating to republicans due to optics.

Relevant quotes[0]:

> SBF: “The reason [for not publicizing donations to republicans] 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.”

> […] he donated nearly $40 million to Democrats in the 2022 election cycle—and he admitted to giving an equal amount to Republicans—his total political contributions may have actually been around $80 million.
