Dude never donate to SA. They’re profit driven religious wackadoos who have no idea how to run anything. The charity angle is just another religious scam.
SA is anti-LGBTQ. They will deny them services.
Give them disks of gay and trans porn, got it.
Don’t forget to label them as “Bible cartoons and movies.”
I’m about to blow $9.99 on some custom vinyl stickers
For religious people they’re sure eager to sell used “personal massagers” for $10.
Also, frankly, here in the Reno area it’s basically impossible to find a thrift store that’s not run by incredibly religious wackadoos. Best you can do is Goodwill, which is far from irreligious. Salvation Army is one of the few that isn’t blasting Jesus Rock on the speakers when you’re in there.

Makes sense. Nevada’s got a certain reputation because of Vegas, but folks forget about how it’s also next to/inside the Mormon belt.
Lol, my friend is always on the lookout for “pro-life” thrift stores, apparently they have the best deals. (BC)
They often have no damn clue what they’re selling and clearly just make up prices on the spot. I’ve flipped a few things for a 500%+ profit from the super-ultra-Jesus-ey thrift stores. Computer hardware in particular is something they just don’t grasp the value of. If you ever need a managed switch or a spare monitor, check the thrift stores.
The Salvation Army is the shit tier of “charities”. Not only are they anti-LGBTQ but they have a long history of anti-union action and supporting strikebreakers. Ever wonder why so many US Labor Movement songs are to the tune of hymns? It’s not because of their familiar tune. It’s because the Salvation Army would send their band to labor actions and play as loud as possible to try to drown out organizers and make attendees uncomfortable.
I try to be more positive on this platform but with these scumbags, I cannot. They’re in the company of the Pinkertons and other murderers and thugs for hire.

Thank you for making this effort, by the way. The community on Lemmy versus the other platform we all know about is night and day because of people like you.
And I absolutely agree. I went to read a bit about the Salvation Army and I had no idea about their stance. I’m glad I came across this post. Truly appalling.
Wait a minute, you’re the New Vegas guy! Based.
