Money=speech bullshit is especially bad for secret donations, since that heightens the already compelling analogy this has with bribery and makes it much less like the protected promulgation of political views via open activism and speech.

Yeah, that’s what I’m struggling with; Protections for citizens engaging in political activity vs. transparency in large donations influencing the democratic process. I’m still leaning towards more transparency but recent developments give me pause about the potential for activists to use the information to hound political opponents.
