w**k is a four-letter word ([info]esorlehcar) wrote in [info]unfunny_fandom,
The only thing that really bothers me in this entire thing is the "I'm not donating to Child's Play now" going around now. It just feels so... bastardly to me.

Only if they're not donating that same money somewhere else. "This charity is run by giant douchebags who continue to gleefully milk rape culture while insisting they're being persecuted by Big Survivor" seems like a pretty good reason to choose another charity to write a check to--certainly at least as valid as the way I decide to give, which largely involves whether or not I have money in my checking account when I get the solicitation.

And in a shitstorm that includes organized tweet campaigns under names like "TeamRape" and PAX attendees saying they're planning on wearing the shirts in hopes of triggering some rape victims, I really can't see the possibility that a charity run by the lovely people encouraging all this might lose a few dollars as the largest problem, let alone the only one.
