Lol,...stopped right there. You're done.

They need to post this on a Billboard at every Ringing bell station. Go ahead. Wanna be brave?
I dare you.

Well, I don't want to contribute to anyone's social justice movement. When any group decided to become political, they need to think about what it may cost them. Obviously, this idiots weighed it wrong or so I am guessing. Also, this attitude associated with God, not cool!

We contributed before, but won't. We want to help our local neighbors, and "blessing" boxes are a good way to do that. We have 3 stations in our town of about 20,000 people.

Rewarding them for becoming woke will be misinterpreted as approval and they will just become more and more woke.

This Christmas season when I see Salvation Army donation workers outside stores, I am going to tell them about this document and let them know Salvation Army does not want my racist dollars anymore.
Well said! There are more useful things to spend my money on than that garbage.

It is explained in American Marxism by Levin. This is not the time to be polite, but time to stand up for American values.

Not if you stand up for America and say NO.

Enough of Branden and his Laughing Hyena - don't vote for their thugs again.

Wow… I always deposited $3-$5 into their kettles every two-three for years.

What I do know is that they might get $5 dollars in cash from me this year and that’s about it. If I see their Christmas Tree with the names of needy boys and girls, I pick two names and buy them gifts, but I don’t want my cash to fund this racist belief theory, which is proven to be BS AND not based on actual science. AND goes against any and all Christian values.

Sad that they’re going down the road of Self Destruction into WOKE-ism, which is CLEARLY labeled for all to see. So, it’s basically a willful action on their behalf.

I guess we will see how generous the Left really is, as we head into Christmas this year.

Your everyday Christians are the most generous people in the United States, but Christians also tend to vote with their wallets as well.

All I know is that the Salvation Army better get on top of this and announce their mistake and ask for “Christians Forgiveness†before it’s too late.

Now I don't have to feel guilty about not donating. Thanks, OP! I mean, it's hard to donate when you always pay with a credit card or swipe a phone. They need to modernize and set up digital readers or have a smartphone that takes google pay or something.

I wonder if they are working the reverse psychology angle?

They call all white people racist so white people will empty their pockets to show that they are not.



When you think about the people that are screaming the loudest about everything being racist are white people. I guess white people know better than black people and need to "help" them because they cannot help themselves??

Of course to raise up on group due to their skin tone and put them over another group of a different skin color is in fact racist.


Why can't we all just get along? Oh wait, we were for the most part until the Demmy Do Gooders told us we were evil bad people.

That's a dumb thing to do.

1) It says the SA thinks only not white people are poor - which is bs.

2) It spits on every poor white person (what happened to their 'privilege'?) who seeks help from them.

3) Lefties that this would work on, feeling guilty, aren't the ones doing a lot of donating.

I don't understand the point either. They could use scripture. Seems extremely political.
