I realize what these guys are saying is mathematically true, but still I can't shake the feeling that all they are saying is 'Giiib us morz moooney!'.

Whats the most troll thing to donate?
I want to give the beggar outside the supermarket a dogroll
Order a few cans of surstromming for them
he said troll not deathwish
If you didn't knock him the fuck out right then and there you're a better man than I
donate a case of 40s. put some real cheer in someone's holiday.
Had to Google what that was
Is it anything like pickled herring?
Fuck you for being a charitable being with all your white privilege
>donate money that will be spent on charity organization Christmas parties or corporate retreats
I'll pass.
Big if true
I have no problem continuing not to donate anything to greedy minorities
I've been to the foodbank, and worked as a volunteer. The Only thing they ever throw away on the spot is baked goods like pies from the bakery section n' shit.
Why wouldn't you donate food that doesn't expire to a food bank?
>Don't like canned food earn some fucking money and buy it rather than complaining about what you get for free.
false dilemma fallacy
But canned goods are objectively the best food for food banks
>Takes years to spoil

confirmed for not having read the article

I know that feel bro, only difference was that my parents were too proud to get food from the food bank. Many hungry nights.

>10,000 cans of shredded beets
There are stable supplies, and then near junk food quality canned goods. Canned fruit for instance has no vitamin C due to the canning process.
He does not want to give the actual article a view so he is asking for something like a pastebin.
What's the recent shift to only accepting archive links
>Canned fruit for instance has no vitamin C due to the canning process.
most yes
some, no
less ad money for shitty shill sites
Holiday wish, you mean
>recent shift
How new are you?
>he's a paranoid austist
what the fuck can that matter?
op post has link, if thats overwhelming for him then he is an oxygen thief
Only accepting archive links has been a thing for a while, it is just that it used to be the norm to give it. I would say that the shift has been more OPs not giving the archive link. I blame the election.
>being this salty towards people who donate food
First of all Check your fucking privilege niggerlover. You obviously never went a day without eating you fucking whinny cunt. Just cause some liberal kike wrote and article telling people that canned foods taste bad doesn't mean it actually does you retarded faggot.
they get buttmad at thought of the flood of a *chance* of 1/2000 cent of wealth from their page load flooding the coffers of their mortal enemies
Many websites log your IP when you click their links, others download cookies on your device which lets them track you even after you close the article and shitty (((news websites))) simply profit from each click
Archive links prevent them from doing anything shady as well as denying shit journalist their income.
Most of the canned food that is donated is shit-tier, badly expired, or damaged in shipment. You have to throw that shit out if the can has more than a tiny dent.
Every charity that deals with moving atoms has the same problem. At some point you end up with DCs full of worthless crap that's better off dumpstered, but you don't wanna tell your donors that. Goodwill, ferinstance, is mostly an intermediary between people who feel too guilty to just chuck their garbage and a fucking landfill.
If you don't want to donate money, or can't afford to, donate time.
How is that paranoid? It is just his way of expressing his stance that he does not want to support the article or the site by giving them increased traffic.
Oh look it's a story about annoying moocher leftists, and look it's my country again and look it's my city again, oh look I'm feeling that feeling where I want to go crawl into a hole and die again.
> You obviously never went a day without eating you fucking whinny cunt.
you dont even know which side im on, youre so blindly pissed
to say nothing of having not read the article, nor a clue as to what a false dilemma is
jesus
>Just cause some liberal kike wrote and article telling people that canned foods taste bad doesn't mean it actually does you retarded faggot.
i lolled at the tought that anyone could come away from this discourse imagining this has fuck all to do with the issue
so: lol
thats nice
see:
It's not just about the money. Think of it like voting in the presidential election. You know your vote means jackshit, you still do it as a form of expression.
It wasn't a false dilemma.
You have a choice whether or not to complain about the charity you are handed.
Like I have the choice to include an insult with my post.
you presented 2 choice as the only valid ones, when there are in fact more
that is a false dilemma
petty piddly inconsequential anal retentive paranoid juvenile angsty meaningless empty white knuckled concern
I didn't present it.
It is binary:
Complain about gift
Don't complain about gift
There is no third option.
Tell me how this is a false dilemma?
strawman
those were NOT the 2 options
it was :
*accept food and dont complain
*dont accept food and go earn more money
"do one or the other"
when in fact more valid options exist
try to get it through your head
christ.
There's 2 reasons they don't want canned food
>in cities like Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto etc.
>more often than not, chinks are donating disgusting chink food like Octupus and Silkworm (as seen in the picture)
>or shit that no one will even eat or have use for
this, and
>managers and foodbank board members need actual $ for their 6 figure salaries
if pickled herring was left to rot for a few months, yes
to refresh, from OP:
>Don't like canned food earn some fucking money and buy it rather than complaining about what you get for free.
that was it there
namely, option which you and other dont like:
*accept food (or donate) AND complain
>Octupus and Silkworm
>canned
whyyyyyyyyyyyyy!?!?
Don't see anything wrong with the food in your pic.
It would be interesting giving the silkworm pupa a try and it would be better than going hungry (I'd hope).
That's not in a can. It's a glass bottle.
Wait, wait, wait...you mean there are Chinese who actually donate things? For Free?
>accept food
You've distorted the statement.
He didn't say like it or starve. You created that statement.
He said if you accept it, don't complain.
It's not like OP said "if you don't enjoy canned food, you must get a job and earn 6 figures."
You're thinking of Jews again.
Since OP is a one post faggot and others are just lazy fags
>Folks, here's a story 'bout Whinny the Moocher
Hell no. Bottom left is something that someone with pretensions of being a southern Italian chef bought and then realized he'd never get a bitch's pants off with fucking octopus. The silkworm pupa as probably bought as a joke of some sort.
Oh fuck off. Just for that I'm gonna donate 50 2oz cans of tomato paste. Those fuckers can make bisque and choke on it.
>You've distorted the statement.
no, i quoted it
careful
>He didn't say like it or starve.
indeed, strawman
> You created that statement.
no, you did
>He said if you accept it, don't complain.
1st truth of post
>It's not like OP said "if you don't enjoy canned food, you must get a job and earn 6 figures."
so?
and no, he said:
try
"earn some fucking money"
you are so fucking dense
read:
>Don't like canned food earn some fucking money and buy it rather than complaining about what you get for free.
so, i repeat:
*accept food and dont complain
*dont accept food and go earn more money
i.e.
>its one or the other
false dilemma, 2 options valid, no others
when in fact others are valid
namely, and i repeat:
>accept food (or donate) AND complain
this cannot be made any simpler without losing meaning
No. 10 cans of strawberry puree.
It has almost no nutritional value, its pretty much pure sugar, and its so sickeningly sweet that its far too much for a single person to finish.
Buy some shit from bulk food sites like thrivelife.com
>well they are techically right but...
The analysis should have stopped right there.
tl;dr it isn't whiny, it's a reasonable argument and you are being a cunt about it.
They aren't saying "give us more money", they are saying "actually give us money instead" You can even give less in cash than cans and it would be better for them.
Beggars can't be choosers but listen to the begger when he is telling you there is a way you can actually spend less money and time and actually help him more as a result.
Example, imagine the kind of fuck boy that give gift cards for christmas? "Here, I went out of my way to give you 10 dollars that you have to spend on this particular way even if your priorities would be to something else" It's passive-aggressive coal-in-stocking for the 21st century.
Same shit with cans. Everyone fucking thinks you need to store cans for fucking years like its the apocalypse but newsflash, homeless people are fucking homeless they don't have a bunker.
Cans take up inventory space and eventually charities just throw out most of the shit to make room for shit like bedding, clothes and medical supplies. They would rather have a steady supply of fresher foods than shit that lasts forever.
And they could have that steady supply of food if they had money instead of cans.
They can't sell the cans because they aren't marked for individual resale. Those are goods that are only effectively sold at retail stores.
Between donating 10 dollars of cans and 10 dollars of cash, donate cash.
Heck, between donating 10 dollars of cash or only 5 dollars cash, donate cash.
Same shit goes for blood drives, most people only give blood because of a disaster like a huricane but as a result they get oversupplied and most of the blood goes to waste. We don't need more people to give blood because of humanitarian disasters. We have shortages of blood outside disasters and need to donate blood because its an ordinary Tuesday.
This. But he's right, stop donating cans. Stop donating ANYTHING. once the gibs run dry and they riot we can cull the population
i dont think your accurate and well though out, CORRECT post is going to get through to many of the deep-"POOR? LEARN TO ENJOY MISERY."-thinkers in this thread
>others download cookies on your device
if you don't have cookies globally disabled by default using something like uMatrix you should diaf
jesus christ
SO FUCKING WHAT
>But if you’re a pragmatist just looking to vanquish as much poverty as possible with your disposable income, suck it up
I cannot seriously consider somebody when they are this fundamentally stupid.
On a more dramatic note, imagine those billions of dollars people spend to make themselves feel better over being charitable (for some fucking reason) would go to fund any and, almost, all science research, understanding the world better on such a scale would literally improve lives of every human alive. But no, they would rather fund rapidly worsening problem of lazy niggers, making lives of everyone worse for it.
Someone will, and at the very least it will get on the nerves of other people who think they're fucking Mother Teresa because they threw out their cans at their local church instead of the trash (where it belongs).
I get it. It's not a dilemma.
>*accept food and dont complain
>*dont accept food and go earn more money
>*accept and complain
The article choose option 3 in effect. OP said that no one should ever choose option 3 because it's like looking a gift horse in the mouth. They should choose between option 1 & 2.
So I agree. It's not a false dilemma.
>t. kulak
No wonder Stalin purged you greedy fuckers
Nope. Most canned food is unhealthy as fuck (either full of fat or salt), which results in health problems further down the road for the poorfags who eat that shit. And health problems cost a lot more. But then again, canned food lasts the longest and almost never spoils, so...
Catch 22?
Makes good points but also ignores that the donated food might have been destined for the trash if left untouched, and in any case it's not certain money would have replaced the donation.
Also lol a corned mutton being presented as exotic food below the dignity of poor people.
we just donate that shit to troll the hobo faggots who are too lazy to work for real
The view of a web-page is a regular currency. The value is such that one means so little it can be ignored, however, assuming the topic would be more interesting, posting a suggestive link on Sup Forums could literally create a flow of view to the author, who OP usually despises, which is obviously undesirable.
In the future archiving will be common practice even outside of boards, a bit like internet hygiene to maintain as low of return rate on clickbaits as possible.
>between donating 10 dollars of cans or only 5 dollars cash, donate cash.
Ftfy.
>But then again, canned food lasts the longest and almost never spoils, so...
This is a worthless attribute for the homeless and a nearly worthless attribute for the shelters and charities that actually technically do have a place to physically store them.
The starving beggar does not to hold on to food he is going to eat next month, he needs food *now*.
The shelter does not want canned food. It takes up space and time to deal with and would be better off by you donating virtually anything else.
Clothing is almost universally helpful, but beyond that, just donate cash if you are going to.
Know that pain, im workin now so its like 3 or 4 winter with proper coal supply.
The obvious solution is to provide a receipt of what the donation bought.
Wonder why they won't do that.
Hmmm....
>The starving beggar does not to hold on to food he is going to eat next month, he needs food *now*.
There are no starving people in the west.
Also literally every person in the west who has ever uttered the phrase "we starving outchea" or "I can't afford to eat" weighs over 300 pounds.
You're thinking of welfare recipients.
The homeless people who get this food are mostly severely mentally ill or so hopelessly addicted to hard drugs that they might as well be.
>Between donating 10 dollars of cans and 10 dollars of cash, donate cash.
>Heck, between donating 10 dollars of cash or only 5 dollars cash, donate cash.
And give them an opportunity to spend it on drugs and alcohol? No thanks.
Ive been to food banks, the canned food is always shit about expire, i dont how poor some one is for what reason, no one deserves 3 cans of fucking lima beans
Should of figured the chinks weren't actually donating thinking they were going to help poor people from the host country
They just here to the milk the shekels out of the vancouver housing market and troll the poor with their fucked up sense of humor...
Pretty funny actually, but still, fuck you.
Dont want to eat Silkworm Pupa, move out of Canada. Its a Chinese country, get used to it.
>corned mutton with juices
Sounds tasty
>Most canned food is unhealthy as fuck (either full of fat or salt), which results in health problems further down the road for the poorfags who eat that shit.
Give them chicken or any other food and they'll just fry it or drown it in seasonings.
the best
>That $1 you spent on tuna could have purchased $4 worth of tuna if put in the hands of a non-profit employee whose only job is to buy food as cheaply as possible. The savvy buyers at the Calgary Food Bank, for instance, promise they can stretch $1 into $5.
Imagine how many people they're undercutting and jobs they're costing by doing this.
I'm not worried about bums spending it on vices, I'm worried about (((charities))) "misplacing" my donation. Like, for example, Haitian earthquake relief funds paying for a politicians campaign ads or something. Just an example pulled out of my ass.
>about expire
Canned food tastes just as good a year or two past expiration date. Then taste starts to diminish a little bit every year after that.
I'm rick and eat dry or canned food I've forgotten in my cupboard for half a decade. No issue.
There are people on youtube eating MREs from WWII and enjoying it.
Pretty much only middleman grocers since they're spending the same amount of money.
Not like I give a shit about killing off cuck manservant retail jobs
All of these are non-profits too. I'd like to see how they really can buy $4 worth of food for $1. Are they just buying in bulk?
dont forget some % of your donation is going to be spent on nonprofit salaries
which in my mind is even worse because these are likely college graduates with useless degrees who are now forced to skim the top from money donated to feed homeless people because they have no valuable skill to contribute to the economy
the idea of paying them indirectly through a donation makes me feel physically ill
I would love it for more companies to have their own stores, unless they charge the same price or more. Those laws preventing car manufacturers from selling cars themselves is retarded.
donate fresh food instead that will show them
