Point is people have the right to spend however much they wish on what they wish and to derive whatever level of satisfaction from it as they wish. Quit talking like "we have spent" when in reality they have spent their own money.

People have the right to spend their money however they want. And I have the right to call people out for being stupid if months or years later, you find out you weren't donating to what you thought you were donating to.
I'm not saying people can't donate to these things. I'm saying the trend is disturbing. We're so hooked on immediate gratification goodwill that we're starting to devalue organizations that are more likely to make an impact.
