For God's sake Slon - how the hell am I going to know what political persuasion an ebay buyer/waiter is?

This is about someone taking a political donation from a political lobby with unpleasant political views - not about accepting a tip from a stranger.

I wouldn't (hypothetically) take a tip from Hitler or Stalin (assuming I knew who they were) in fact, if I did know who they were, they would be barred from the restaurant. Would you take a tip from Hitler?

Get a grip.
