“Anti-Racism” is dog-whistle for “Kill Whitey.”

I had a monthly donation to them from my bank account for years.

Not anymore.

Hit ‘em in the pocketbook.

It’s the only language the terminally WOKE understand.

We re-routed our annual contribution to the Salvation Army this year because of this racist move of theirs. It wasn’t all that much, but had been regular for years.

Drop a note in the kettle

"Since I am white, and according to the Salvation Army all whites are racist, I am sure you would not want my racist tainted donation."

They were number one on our list of recipients of our charitable contributions. No longer.

They are also incredibly ant Israel, and anti Jew. Strong supporters of the Palestinians and the destruction of Israel:

That’s what the Left wants whites to do because the objective is to destroy the institution itself.
Instead of not donating, why don’t you contact their leaders and explain that their being used as pawns to create more division in this country.
By not donating, you are ironically giving in to the Left.

I was already angry at them before COVID tyranny days.

They had already made a deliberate self-conscious effort to be homosexual apologists that previous summer at least.

Sorry, don’t self-consciously virtue-signal about how you help the poor, poor homos in their mental sickness.

The Army has been regarded as one of the most cost-effective charities with no enormous salaries or lavish buildings. I have been a fan forever and kinda figured that TSA was immune to this sort of racialist corruption. What a huge disappointment!

Already redirected my donations. I’ve regularly and generously donated to them as far back as I can remember. They do great work, but so do other organizations. If they change their leadership and apologize for insulting their donors I may consider switching back.
