      Split between 4 charities. I’d have to assume the lion’s share would go toward Gaza.

        I imagine he’s also made a private donation and isn’t talking about it. He tends to do that.

          Iirc that’s a basic tenet in the Quran … give quietly and often to those in need.

            How about you start a fundraiser that generates over 850k for relief efforts, and then I’ll be happy to imagine that you’ve contributed to it.

            Whether you actually did or not is irrelevant, because you’ll have raised nearly a million dollars for a good cause

    While I dislike him for his China takes and his support and platforming of tankies, big kudos to him for doing this.

    I admire that he uses his massive fanbase to do good things.

      People I strongly dislike can still do really good things, and that should be applauded
