The only things I will be re-evaluating are my donations.

They sing and dance near the big tree at Rockefeller Center at Christmastime. I’m going to miss feeling good about them.

I always mention the Salvation Army as one of the good charities that doesn’t dish out huge salaries and perks to its executives. I won’t be so quick to recommend them unless they change their tune.

The unforgivable sin is criticism of the Holy Spirit, isn’t it? This (Salvation Army rhetoric) is bad but not that bad.

I have printed a nice card to deposit in the kettles.

“I apologize for my systemic whiteness believing money I donated to the Salvation Army would be useful. Thank you for helping me understand my internalized white racism and accept this apology in lieu of a monetary donation.”

F em. They don’t want my white stained money, they don’t get my white stained money.

Already commented on this yesterday. But it’s even worse than I thought.

BTW, when are these “Christian” groups ever going to consider the 10 Commandments and that little thing about “bearing false witness”?

I am very sorry to hear about that incident. I hope she has recovered as much as possible.

We are near officially a true socialist/fascist nation, with La government-CORPORATIST conglomerate, acting well outside any shade of “free market”.

Congress has ordered up a several $ Trillion dollar corporate slush fund to cushion their big donors and banks, which is now resulting in smaller corporations and organizations having g to “SUCK UP” to their biggest corporatized donors.

The —> no-longer-godly Salvation Army is itself dependent on socialized corporate donations.

You God loving, pro American, liberty loving, traditional family, “male/female created, Free Market, non-communist little people are go-in splat, and or to the “camps”.

Guaranteed very soon in the current trajectory.

And the left will sodomize and sell your children’s body parts for profit, then celebrate their truly debased evil and their true master.

Are they really willing to lose half of their donor base?

Reverse racism is just as bad as regular racism.
I will not be shamed!

The SA Facebook account has many posts from people disappointed and outraged about this. Many said they will no longer donate.
The SA webpage now has a statement saying they want discussion and are not telling peope how to think.

>>The Salvation Army has occasionally published study guides on various complex topics, including race, to help foster positive conversations and reflection among Salvationists. The hope is that by openly discussing these issues, we can encourage a more thoughtful organization that is better positioned to serve those in need. These guides are solely designed for internal use. No one is being told how to think. Period.

I was so sad to see that the Salvation Army has bought into Woke mentality. Don’t you know that it is a racist movement that is a direct antithesis to Dr. Martin Luther King’s dream? I will no longer be volunteering to ring the bell.

—I’ve canceled my volunteering and I’m not donating time nor money. I’m offended having read the SA diversity training which is EXACTLY CRT. I’m not sorry.

—As a black man im never donating money to you ever again why should white people write apologies for something they where not around to do

One of the very few charities I would give to, looks like they saved me some money and now the bell ringers can annoy me like they do the progressive dems.

You’re in my prayers - your mother too... Considering what your mother went through you’ve offered a very fair suggestion to the Salvation Army. They would be wise to take it. I doubt they will so for me not even one thin dime again. Really, enough is enough.

If they ask pull out the largest bill you have and act like you’re going to donate it. Then say I’m sorry what did you ask me. Then put the bill back in and walk away.

This will alienate white contributors and cut into its income. I didn’t expect them turning racist.

Used to donate. Now a racist.
No donation, no racist. There.

this is all about the government funds and corporate cash.

You got it. United Way and Bank of America will pressure Salvation Army.

Giving in to these money sources won't help. Look what happened to the Boy Scouts.
