Ice Bucket Challenge

awareness = more donations which help scientists

no one would have heard of this charity had it not been for this challenge

Nope. It's a waste of clean water, clean water that kids in other countries could be drinking right now, but cannot. It isn't an unlimited resource that we can abuse and waste as we please.

People donate everything if it requires stupid actions on camera and uploading it on youtube. No one actualy care about ALS, they need fun and attention. Another chance for shitbloggers and attentionwhores advert themselves.

Who gives a shit about people doing stuff for attention if it helps a good cause.

I don't see why so many people are getting angry about this when it doesn't affect them at all.

People are getting angry because other charity don't get as much attention as ALS is getting now, even though ALS only affect a small group of people it's getting shitload of money just because it involves ice dumping. To many it seem more like a publicity stunt than an action for charity.

IntroverTurtle said:
Then make their own viral thing. No one's obligated to donate to any charity. If people don't know about it, don't care for it, etc then they won't donate. It's fine being a publicity stunt if it makes them more money than usual, way more money I might add.

This doesn't affect them because there's no guarantee people would donate to some other charity if this didn't come up. There's no reason to be angry.

because they don't even donate the money to charity so it's nothing more than attention whoring

Moronity spreads if not counteract it. We pay attention to the fact of unthought action. I don't care about retards, I care about internet. Take this shit back to TV.

JackFisher said:

Look, I don't think anyone educated in a first world country doesn't know that poverty, cancer and starvation doesn't exists. The point is people are doing this for publicity and it's for a cause that only affect so many, it's an ultimate insult to those that donate to other causes with bigger impact on society such as poverty.

Patience, young man. Patience and foresight. I don't have this problem because I plan ahead.

what the fuck are you talking about.

Xasthur said:

Re-read my post. People do this, because popular videobloggers, musicans, artists e.t.c. do this. They don't even google what ALS is. Mass psychosis. Popular people say to "turn the bucket over yourself" - unpopular do what they say. "Oh, it's for charity" and it's enough argument. "it's for protecting our country from terrorists", "It's for protecting our children", "It's for starving children". These problem exists without shitty flashmob, but no one cares about it. Just add flashmob and you've got hive of people ready to donate.
You see now what they people really care? In first of all they donate money AND dry clothes to their popularity, not to ALS found. It's like sell bible with porno magazines. Also, if this flashmob was anonymous, nobody of these wet-guys participates in it.

that's too bad then. if all you're gonna do is be a bitch (not you) and complain then you'll go nowhere with your donations to other causes. how about you (people who are insulted) start doing the piss bucket challenge or some shit to promote your charity?

JackFisher said:


......Well, you are not addressing why they were angry, the point isn't they hated the Ice Bucket challenge, it's what people are doing it for. Attention.

BarryManilow said:
Well, if they want to die bitching and angry more power to them I guess.

JackFisher said:


You are acting like that's all they do in their time, they don't like it and just talk about it. It's what happened when people are angry.

Yeah. It was just a comment you saw, other than that you have no idea who they are.
