RDTWWIII - A Thread in Crisis

[Dagless]

I've seen a lot of people complain that the ice bucket challenge doesn't raise awareness for ALS because people don't know that that's what it's for.

However, I've only seen one or two people genuinely not know what it's for. Why are there so many campaigning on behalf of so few? I feel the same way when the 'people will be offfended by this' crowd outnumber the actual offended by 100-1.

Saying 'oh it's for ALS' doesn't mean they're actually aware of what ALS Is...

Steve-o of all people got it right, that a lot of celebs are just doing it to look cool and being in the fad and not knowing or caring what it's about. Linking to how they can donate to ALS themselves would help the cause as well instead of just name dropping who they know.

 

[Mr Eagle]

I think we've reached peak awareness. Now just give them money already.

 

[Ochre]

They raised twice as much money in the past 23 days as they did in all of 2013. I think what they are doing is working.

 

[Shupe]

They have raised millions. Roughly $8 million in a single day the other day. Even if people don't know what it's for, they are still donating.

I will have to cleanse my soul immediately after the match tomorrow then apologise profusely to an Eagle god.
