re: #548 oaktree

It does appear that at least they stopped digging.

Well, this bit:

It is our hope and we believe it is time for everyone involved to pause, slow down and reflect on how grants can most effectively and directly be administered without controversies that hurt the cause of women

Is still digging, to me, though sideways. That seems like they’re saying controversy is something to be avoided, rather than something that’s goddamn inevitable.

You give money to Planned Parenthood, there will be controversy. You stop giving it, there will be controversy. That’s not the fault of the organization. What’s important isn’t avoiding controversy, but making the right decisions, no matter if they cause controversy.
