Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!

Also, The Girl Scouts explicitly rejected a large donation from an anti-trans organization: https://www.seattlemet.com/news-and-city-life/2015/06/donor-says-girl-scouts-can-t-use-100k-gift-for-transgender-girls

Girl Scouting is for all girls. Trans girls are girls, so they belong in Girl Scouts.

Leaders of the org definitely get paid. Your wife was a scout mom, not a real leader.

Idk why you'd even lie about this but ok: https://www.glassdoor.com/Salary/Girl-Scouts-USA-Salaries-E5458.htm

Pretending the industrial complex that is girl scout cookies just a bake sale is 100% bad faith argument here. I mean c'mon.

The gsa has 181million in assets boys and girls.

Leaders of most nonprofits get paid. Why would Girl Scouts be any different and why would most people even agree to be working for a national nonprofit at the highest level for free? That's a full-time job.

Why are you talking about slavery one minute and expecting people who lead nonprofits to work for free in another. Wouldn't that be slavery?

Also, in Girl Scout terms, she was a leader. She was a troop leader in specific.

And now since you've decided to attack my parenting as if I'm an abusive father, this conversation is over.

That was totally out of order.
