Perhaps in the past we’ve expected them to at least make a reasonable fist of hiding their duplicity … this lot either can’t even do that or are so arrogant they don’t even try …Â

Now, is this a bit Scroogey of me? I just received an email from donotsendmeacard.com informing me that someone who does not normally send me a card is again not sending me a card but is donating to a charity of their choice. It is a picture of a wreath with the name of the charity they are supporting in the middle. Good for them, and it is a worthy charity but I suspect that donotsendmeacard.com - which urged me to 'do the same' with a big button to press, is getting something out of this as well as the charity. For myself - sending pretty Christmas cards is a way of touching base with family and friends who are now so far scattered that we just don't see each other any more. If I want to give to my favourite charities I do - at any old time of the year.
I don't buy charity cards and wouldn't donate to something like "donotsendmeacard" for the same reason. That is the amount which is creamed off by the companies selling them. I will only donate directly to a charity, not pay a third party.
Of course … Nazism is about an elite oppressing the rest.Â
And left wing extreme Governments aren't?
Where did I say that? Although I doubt you can name a left wing government that has verifiably murdered over 11 million people in a period of four years. Â

I've been known to do both.
Why not buy charity cards if you like the design? ... but don't be naive and think all the money goes to the charity ... the artist, the printers and the sellers all have to make a living too, just like you and I. Â

Actually I'll call myself out on that one ... the Cultural Revolution of course. Â
But as I said, you responded to something I hadn't said .... I wasnt making excuses for anybody.Â
