Me a gay trans person: Salvation Army is bad and hates LGBTQ+ people
A straight cis person: are you sure? Here’s an incredibly vague thing on there website claiming that they don’t hate the gays!
Me, with proof of discrimination from this year:
Salvation Army find
The Salvation army (at least in Australia) takes money from donations and gives it to anti-LGBTQIA+ lobby group. NOT the thousands upon thousands they get from the government. Money from donations and from op shops.
In 2019 they were the largest contributors to an anti-safe school lobby initiative. The safe school policy in Australia protects vulnerable youth from harassment by both peers and teachers based on race, gender identity, sexual identity, economic standing and ethnicity.
Donating to the Salvation army directly hurts the LGBTQIA+ community

It’s that time of year to say no to the Salvation Army.
Never forget they let a Trans woman die instead of helping her.
Never forget they have tossed entire families on the street for having an LGBT child.
Never forget they tell non Christian families that unless they convert they will not help them.
Never forget that the Salvation Army is bigoted and hateful, many of the bell ringers routinely heckle and harass LGBT couples.
MAJOR BARBARA (Dir: Gabriel Pascal, 1941).
An impressive array of British acting talent headline Gabriel Pascal’s feature film adaptation of George Bernard Shaw’s acclaimed 1905 satirical play. Receiving an Assistant in Direction credit, it is widely acknowledged that Major Barbara was almost solely directed by the great David Lean with some help from stage director Harold French. Producer Gabriel Pascal owned the film rights and took onscreen director credit.
Wendy Hiller stars as the titular Salvation Army major and estranged daughter of weapons manufacturer Andrew Undershaft (Robert Morley). Rex Harrison is the Greek philosophy professor Adolphus, who sparks romantic interest from the major and business interest from her father as a possible heir to his ammunition enterprise.

DO NOT SUPPORT SALVATION ARMY
Don't donate to Goodwill. Find a Salvation Army to donate clothes and things to instead. The CEO of Goodwill also makes a frighten amount of money.
Charities/organisations to avoid:
PETA: They’d rather spend their money on publicity campaigns than on the animals in their care. PETA killed 73.8% of the animals in their care in 2015 (x)
FCKH8: Is a for-profit company that exploits oppressed groups for money. They’re also wildly uninformed, and spread misogyny, cissexism and bi/panphobia, as well as stealing their posts/designs (x)
Autism Speaks: They spend most of their money on researching a way to eliminate autism, heighten the stigma against autism and don’t have a single autistic person on their board (x)
Please support other, better charities, and feel free to add any others you can think of to this.
