I used to do a lot of charity work. This wasn't generalized work to feel good about myself but actually made people's lives better. I have seen proof that my involvement has directly saved lives. I got out of the volunteering/charity bullshit about when this was all starting but I stayed long enough to learn a couple of things- I learned that there is never an end to these people's demands. I've actually asked what the end point to their demands were and got a long ummm errrr...pause in response. There is no end point and... it is *never* about helping anyone but themselves. They don't want to help the poor, help kids, help niggers, or help anyone that doesn't exist in their body. It is nothing but a manipulative power tactic, one I saw right away and wondered why the fuck no one sees it. It's really fucking blatant. Another thing I learned- the people that use this tactic the most often, the ones that are the loudest, are the biggest fucking losers you can imagine. They are fat, likely either diseased or a virgin, addicted to several things, broke, sexually confused, no accomplishments and no education or barely scraping by. They are literally the garbage of humanity but, because of late Gen X parenting, they were raised to be incredibly self centered. As much as they are complete losers, they believe no one is smarter, better, more moral and compassionate than they are. They will believe this as they actively take food and money from the poor.
