When startup partners disagree about ethically questionable funding sources

My co-founder and I disagree about whether to take funding from a donor whose wealth comes from sources we find ethically questionable, and we're realizing we have different standards for moral purity versus pragmatic impact. We've been avoiding the decision for weeks because it feels like whoever wins gets to define what our organization actually stands for.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people are discovering their moral boundaries don't align when facing real-world tradeoffs.
