Majority of Lemmy would not give money to homeless people. That’s crazy. No empathy for the poor.
Being poor isn’t hot right now. Only Gaza, trans and abortions.
donate to local nonprofits
I don't because I'm concerned that they would use my generous gift to just go out and buy drugs. And that may be cruel of me. But I would rather donate to a charity that feeds the homeless, such as a soup kitchen. Or if I see somebody that would look hungry, I would rather buy them a meal directly than give them the money for it.
