Not helping. I was referring to the the moral value of donations as an argument for choosing to know, as opposed to not knowing. You don't seem to address that in your reply (did I miss something?).
Oh, I see. Well, I guess it depends upon how much I eventually donate and how much of an incremental difference that makes.
It would certainly be better to just donate, AND to also not know anything about anything dangerous. I'm not even sure that's possible, though. For all we know, just knowing about any of this is enough to land you in a lot of trouble either in the causal future or elsewhere.
