Salvation Army Imposes Racial Wokeness
Within Church’s Ranks

Original Article

Posted By: Judy W., 10/5/2021 3:59:19 PM

The news is replete with examples of corporations and institutions going woke, from Google to Aunt Jemima. Unfortunately, now The Salvation Army is in danger of joining the ranks of Woke Inc. In materials prepared for its more than 1.5 million members, The Salvation Army uses terms that echo both radical “anti-racism” jargon and the divisive teachings of critical race theory, which divides people into two camps: the oppressors and the oppressed. And many of this trusted charitable organization’s donors and other supporters aren’t even aware of the change. Despite being apolitical historically, The Salvation Army has begun to promote political and racial ideologies under the banner of its New York-based

Comments:

I have always relied on the Salvation Army to be true to its original cause and not get caught up in fads and politics' agendas. This is horrible news and I will let them know what this donor thinks about their new wokeness.

The Left has been trying to cancel the Salvation Army for many years. It is ironic that they now decide to cancel themselves.

I am sad to hear this. I usually donate to my local St. Vincent de Paul Society. They do a lot of good and they are not woke.

In the past I’ve perhaps tossed $40 or $50 a Christmas season into their red kettles. Done and done. Go woke, go broke. I’ll route those dollars to some other charity.

Republicans statistically give more to charity than Democrats. No surprise there. If the Salvation Army wants to alienate their donors that is their choice. Live with the consequences.

I used to give to them very often like many other Christian Americans. Last year, I did some homework on how my Texas ones are really funded. I knew just the Thrift Stores could surely not be a major source of revenue. SA gets much government money through our taxes at the local, state and federal levels. My liberal United Way is now buddy buddy with Salvation Army here. UW gives them money. The United Way ALONE being displeased enough to cut/withdraw funds unless they started showing signs of wokeness could have triggered this. Love of money replacing Love of the Gospel first. Sad.

The last legitimate charity in the country has now joined the ranks of the stupid. It was only a matter of time as charities draw liberals who in turn want to manage things because they are unable to do much useful work. Oh well, I can close my wallet now.

The CRT crowd et al have been insinuating themselves into both old mainstream, evangelical & more recent Christian denominations for at least a decade. Look up Sovereign Nations' Michael O'Fallon who has been a voice in the wilderness about this. James Lindsay calls CRT a Trojan Horse that when taken into an organization will destroy it.

The United Way has been a fraudulent organization for decades. They bill themselves as a charity but behind the curtains they fund things like lesbian defense funds. Back in the late 80’s my husband was told to be his office’s liaison for the United Way Combined Federal Campaign. He went to the meeting, brought back some literature, referred to the whole thing as the “Combined Fraudulent Campaign”, dropped the leaflets on the table and said, “You can donate if you want to. I won’t.” And he walked out of the room. Now the SA joins in on the fraud. After almost 50 years of donating cash, clothing and household goods, I’m done.

Kyle Rittenhouse shot three black men. Kyle Rittenhouse traveled across state lines with a gun. Kyle Rittenhouse had an AK-47. These are three examples of false information being spread about Rittenhouse, whose trial ended last week with his acquittal. Prominent influencers, including lawmakers and reporters, are sources of some of the misinformation—possibly disinformation—leaving experts troubled. On CBS’ “Face the Nation” on Sunday, reporter Mark Strassman falsely said Rittenhouse “drove in from Illinois armed for battle.” On CNN’s “Cuomo Prime Time” on Friday, Harvard University professor Cornell William Brooks falsely said Rittenhouse was carrying an AK-47. The Independent falsely reported late last week that Rittenhouse shot three black men.

For 85 minutes on Friday, we held our breath as America’s-not-Sweetheart Kamala Harris was acting president while Joe Biden was anesthetized for a colonoscopy. Near in time, a 12-member panel of jurors in Kenosha, Wisconsin ignored threats shouted on the courtroom steps to find Kyle Rittenhouse not guilty of all the charges against him. The judge and defense counsel bravely labored on, ignoring the many death threats against them. Kyle was brave to defend himself during the riot and at the trial where the prosecution engaged in numerous unethical acts, not the least of which was charging him with crimes for which they lacked any reasonable scintilla of evidence.

Yale Law School is failing. For reasons that appear to be associated with her support for Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination, the school seems to have a vendetta against Professor Amy Chua. Chua was banned from teaching Yale Law’s important “small group” classes after being accused of, well, something. A deep-dive investigative report by The New York Times found no evidence that Chua had actually done anything wrong.

In addition, the law school administration publicly shamed another student of color, who announced a Native American Law Students Association party

Ten years ago this coming February, George Zimmermann shot and killed 17-year-old Trayvon Martin on a rainy night in Sanford, Florida. Without intending, Zimmerman triggered a dark new phase in the history of progressive America. Beginning with the Sacco and Vanzetti case in the 1920s, the left lied to conceal the guilt of the guilty. Yes, Virginia, those two bad boys were guilty. Upton Sinclair, who “proved” their innocence in his epic novel Boston, knew they were guilty.

PHOENIX, AZ — A world-class COVID-19 expert has called the experimental drugs used to prevent the coronavirus “a product of bioterrorism.” Dr. Peter McCullough made the remark during an October 27 meeting in Phoenix, Arizona in which he explained the dangers of mRNA technology used to combat COVID-19. Of particular concern to McCullough is the mRNA jabs’ ability to make the human body produce spike protein. “Everything we have learned about the spike protein since release of the vaccines is bad, 100% bad,” he lamented. “This spike protein—in itself—is pathogenic,” he continued. “This spike protein—in itself—is lethal to some through mechanisms which are now CORRECTION*

In medieval days, before there were secular dramas, there were roving bands of semi-professional actors performing morality plays. The plays were often short and sometimes even farcical. Plots were designed to encourage moral choices or illustrate Biblical stories. (Snip) Today, we have criminal trials as national entertainment. They usually take days and too often devolve into farce, as did the Kenosha trial of Kyle Rittenhouse, fumbled by the prosecutors (looking so much like Laurel and Hardy) trying the 17-year-old hero for shooting two felons to death and wounding a third man during a days’ long riot, arson and looting.

No, the Democrats—aka “The Party of Science”—did not flunk high school biology. Between grade inflation and “woke” stupidity, nobody flunks much of anything in high school these days. But there is another explanation why they—and even the vaunted Dr. Anthony Fauci—act as if natural immunity is not the best immunity against COVID-19 as it is against so many other illnesses, including childhood ones. In case you did miss high school biology and have been living under an Everest-size pile of rocks, natural immunity is what you have via antibodies after an illness ends that prevents you from getting that illness again.

British experts have sounded the alarm over a new Covid variant believed to have emerged in Botswana that is the most mutated version of the virus yet. Only 10 cases of the strain, which could eventually be named 'Nu', have been detected so far. But it has already been spotted in three countries, suggesting the variant is more widespread. It carries 32 mutations, many of which suggest it is highly transmissible and vaccine-resistant, and has more alterations to its spike protein than any other variant.(Snip)Dr Tom Peacock, a virologist at Imperial College who first picked up on its spread, described the variant's combination of mutations as 'horrific'.

Donald Trump has all but formally announced his intentions to run for the presidency again in 2024, and his team is honing in on taking back five states Biden won in 2020 that he'd won in 2016. The former president's shadow campaign team polled Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, all of which were decided in favor of President Biden by 3 percentage points or less. The team found that in Georgia, Trump would be ahead by 3 points, 8 points in Arizona, 12 points in Michigan, 6 points in Pennsylvania and 10 points in Wisconsin, if the race were held today.Together, the states represent 73 electoral votes.
