Dec. 22nd, 2015 02:18 pmRich American Christians are horrifying, horrible goddamn people sometimes.
UpTV, a TV channel for "uplifting" Christian programming, decided to air a Fuck With Poor People Special for Christmas this year.
They went to Atlanta, found a bunch of poor kids between 6 and 11, and asked them what the most expensive thing they wanted for Christmas was, and what the most expensive thing their parents wanted for Christmas was. Then each child was handed their ultimate gift and told that they could either keep it, or give it up and their parents would get their gifts instead.
EVENTUALLY UpTV revealed that both parents and kids would be keeping the gifts, they weren't actually giving them up, but, seriously, "Dance for our table scraps, unwealthy child! Dance!"
That's amazingly fucking cruel. YouAreDumb puts it wonderfully.
The Salvation Army, given that they have an actual literal death toll of people they've murdered for being insufficiently compliant, are still the worst "Christian Charity" organisation, but fuck you UpTV, that's not a title you should be competing for.
