Salvation Army is a wingnut religious organization that really wishes it were a cult, masquerading badly as a charity.

I feel like “wearing military outfits during church services and calling their ministers by military ranks” and “discouraging members from marrying people who aren’t also in the Salvation Army” both push it really close to cult territory.

Anyone know where their head office is? Tells you everything you need to know about this staunchly christian organisation.

1 person vs how many they saved. Dont mean to sound heartless but do the math.

“Let’s quote Stalin to rebut this image. I’ll explain that it’s a utilitarian take so the loss of life and blatant transphobia seems meaningless. Surely this will go over well.”

I agree with you, but I don’t agree with the way you are presenting the point, and it could be a miscommunication, so I’ll explain:

Historically, ‘All Lives Matter’ was used to diminish the BLM movement. It is used as a response when it should be the premise. All Lives Matter, therefore Black Lives Matter, not the other way around.

I think the comment replying to you was using the All Lives Matter metaphor to say that your comment about it being a human being that was killed is deliberately ignoring the struggles for trans people. But the way they phrased it was very subtle.

But it removes the point. They let her die BECAUSE she was trans. Not because she was a person.

I mean, why stop there? " Group of humans kills mammal"

Not all lives matter. Brian Thompson’s life didn’t matter. Neonazi lives don’t matter. If you dedicate yourself to ruining other peoples’ lives over greed or malice or shit like that: your life doesn’t matter.
