Salvation army fed me when I was living on the streets, and they treated me with kindness and respect, that's all I know.

They told me I would need to renounce my homosexuality or else they wouldn't provide me with any services. Fuck the Salvation Army.

"I can't, Jesus is too sexy and I find myself wondering which hole would be the most fun. I'm thinking probably the left hand."

How did they know you were gay?

The people who took care of me were genuinely of God. I suppose YMMV depending if you live in a sane country or not. We do live in the single most atheist country on the planet though, so I guess it's not globally representative...

Underneath the thin facade of being a charitable organization, they're really a disgusting Protestant sect of Christianity who loath homosexuality and have a fair share of controversies. There's a few listed on Wikipedia if you want a starting point: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Salvation_Army#Controversies

While they have acted shady pertaining to American labor legislation, they operate globally and they do not deny aid to those in need. There isn't a checklist of criteria you have to meet in order for the Salvation Army to help you.

I fucked a transvestite once. Still got fed.

I mean that's good for you. But you really might want to look into other things they've done.

[–] anarchy79@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

Nah, I'm good, just happy to be alive.
