No, it's not. That's a made-up story.

Anyways, shouldn't Elon be apologizing for being a moron and causing his rocket to blow up?

How very dishonest of Musk to pay for the blue check mark for other people.

I think the conservative obsession over the blue check mark is just another reminder of how conservatives always wanted to be able to sit at the cool kids table back in high school and were rejected.....they have failed to get over that rejection ever since......hence is why they are so giddy that they feel they can determine who gets to sit at the "cool table" now -- even if it is something as trivial as a blue check mark

sure, libs don't have much faith either....but your post means nothing...let's take basketball out and Michael Jordan is no different then any other guy....silly to do.

 

[mamooth]

nah it's a scientific fact...

Only if you classify giving to your own social club ... your church ... as "charitable".

Honest people wouldn't classify things that way.

Actually he was better than average in just about everything he did.

But that aside, giving to your local church where the money only helps the church is not really the same as giving to an actual charity.

Conservatives give more to the poor, heck...they even donate more BLOOD

Who Gives and Who Doesn't?

When it comes to charity, who gives, and who doesn't?

And he says the differences in giving goes beyond money, pointing out that conservatives are 18 percent more likely to donate blood.

Dembots are faithless people, that don't give to charity...because they are selfish people

Why take churches out of that when they're a part of it? But I haven't given to a church in a long time. My favorite charities are St. Jude's Children's Hospital; Habitat For Humanity; and, until recently, Salvation Army. When SA started telling people to be "less white" I stopped supporting them. But the other two haven't been infected by "wokeism" that I know of.

Looks like Tesla's investors have finally had enough of his stupid shit.

hahah Churches provide meals for the homeless, shelters, etc....they are literally non-profit organizations.

But read the study in the links provided...it's not just churches....Conservatives donate even more of their own blood.

[Harpy Eagle]

Because they are unlike other charities. The vast majority of money given to a local church stays within the walls of the church.

This is the flipside of what one would expect. More anal retention in the liberal mentality. Fascinating.

Isn’t it true many of these celebs paid tens of thousands of dollars for blue checkmarks in old Twitter?

Yet now they scream about $8 a month.

I am not at all surprised....the dembot mentality is that of selfishness. Just read some of their post on this website.

Why would you take churches out? That's how most of us give charitably. You people do it at gunpoint.

Very few do those things.

Less than 5% of what they bring in goes back out for those things...

How Churches Spend their Money

By Brant Henshaw | Treasurer and Director of Administrative Services Local church volunteers often call and ask how their spending “fits” in with the average church budget. This is a great question…
