ngl im vaguely interested in seeing how Le Completionist handles all the dramz.
Honestly I can't get mad about it, I know charity is a scam and ohwow you got not-actually-scammed due to not-actually-embezzlement. Imagine if you knew how "legit" charities worked. Big nothing burger.

@Natanahel no it's kinda surprising that he's not crafted a response yet. He knew these video were dropping you'd think he'd scramble to get someone to take the money.
I'm wondering if he's going to completely ignore the dramz. It's possible. Who cares what plebs think amirite, lmao.
-
@crunklord420 I've only watched the videos that broke out the news. Did he finally donate any money? If not, has he shown proof that he still has it?

@Sprate bro how are people going to handle it when some big YouTuber does a "deep dive" into the GDQ cancer charity that is promoted as an organization that "spreads awareness". Some nigga is gonna follow up on what that means and it turns out your millions of dollars get funneled into pamphlets handed out at malls or some shit lmao. It's not even a secret, I just don't think people realize how fucking lame most charity is.
-
Them just leaving the money in a bank account wouldn't be a problem if they weren't raising all this money by claiming to their fans that it was being donated to specific, explicitly named orgs that, in reality, weren't getting a cent of it, for ten straight years.
-
@Sprate also how are people going to handle Doctors Eithout Borders this time around while their own workers are basically acting as Hamas human shields. Everyone just going to pretend like that's not a thing? Ban anyone who mentions Israel/Gaza? Turns out the CURRENT THING is quite contentious with the cattle.
-
I imagine GDQ is probably a little more responsible/impactful with the money they've raised than Jirard has been, but if not, I would LOVE to see them crash and burn, too.
-
@Sprate the point is even A-rated "good" charities are part of the Charity Industrial Complex which is big business. The people involved will tell you that you just don't understand the reason they do these things is because it gets them even more money, it's rent seeking.

@crunklord420 @Sprate if you've ever had to deal with charities you'd know crunk is right
they take money and fuck over the people doing the actual work while the leader is out doing some insane shit
-
@crunklord420 @Sprate also they literally do the "we're a broke charity we need money" bit while the CEO is out paying hookers or spending it on expensive cars or something stupid

@Natanahel I don't know anything about the guy but did you see his brother's LinkedIn profile? Retarded entrepreneur-bro stereotype, it's almost certainly his fault for being an incompetent grifter who failed to even figure out how to grift properly.

@crunklord420 maybe he has dementia just like his mom that inspired the charity in the first place and he just forgot to transfer thr money over and over again
