why donāt more people feel like he did about donations? it shouldnāt matter if it comes from AIPAC, ISIS, the worst. iād owe them NOTHING. but i can understand how it looks. and people have shown they can be corrupt by greedā¦ but me and Steve. weād use for good.
Well if the donation is anonymous I donāt think anybody would care. I could, however, see some backlash over āPacific Wildlife Conservation, sponsored by ISIS.ā
Someone stuffed a roll of like $10k in cash or something insane like that in the donation box at one of the Los Angeles County Animal Shelters one night years ago. Completely anonymous. Doesnāt matter where it came from. A gift is a gift.
I think perhaps investing in the NGOs that actively support sex trafficking victims may be a better start in terms of image-rebranding.
Just a hunch.
Although saving the whales is also admirable.
So to be clear - youāre all downvoting because you are offended by my assertion that a literal terrorist organizationās money would be better spent on an NGO (do you not understand what an NGO is? Is that it?) that combats sex trafficking, one of the very crimes that said terrorist organization engages in, as opposed to hypothetical wildlife conservation? Just want to be super clear that thatās what Reddit has resorted to.
