'Don't let perfect be the enemy of good.'

Is it the most effective way to fundraise? Almost certainly not. Does it do more harm than good? Almost certainly not. Why not try?

I didn't know any of that! That's so cool and encouraging, thank you so much.

I don't think I'm very good at marketing or sales 😅 but it's a skill I hope to develop more as I go. Right now I just want to do better than I did the year before every time. Last year in December I raised $200. This year I'm going to be really ambitious and try for $1,000.

Nah, don't be discouraged. Your ways of helping humanity is unique sure, but it is a net positive without any negative IMHO. So just keep at it! I myself can't help financially but I do support good cause wherever it is advertised

It's Easie!!!!! Omg I missed you!

I like charities, and I work a lot at them, but ultimately they only try to mollify capitalist excesses, rather than fix things. A good thing to learn about is Mutual Aid. Then efforts can be focused on revolution, such as in the successful Leninist or Maoist types.

(On a side note, I love how links are available to use here.)

Hihiiii! I don't recognize your user name so you'll have to give me a little more context, but I'm pretty sure it's nice to see you again, too!

Yeah, used to be on Reddit, MagnetFist, deleted my acc because I didn't need it. It's u/spez's comment of "you'll all come back in the end" and I decided that I wouldn't come back. I missed a lot of fun art, especially one called "BlackBunSuccubus" but I had to leave. I heard that Reddit is closing down horny subs too, so that's a problem.

oh hey!

And hell yeah GOOD FOR YOU! I also am really sick of reddit. Specifically how racism / misogyny / bullshit is just so prevalent there and the admins don't care. I'm really enjoying lemmy so far although it's not a replacement

You reached the end

Is he right...? Is it a lost cause to try to raise money for charity with porn? | Spyke
