Thanks for your response! I don’t think I disagree with anything you’re saying, but I definitely think it’s hard. That is, the burden of proof for 1, 2, and 3 is really high in progressive circles, because the starting assumption is charity does not do 1, 2, or 3. To this end, simplified messages are easily mis-interpreted. I really like this: “The reason being that they redistribute power, not just resources.”
Yeah when I was reading it I was thinking “these are high bars to reach” but I think they cover all the concerns I’ve heard. Oh glad you liked it! I probably could have said that from the start, now that I think about it.
