Except there’s a big difference in people that go to food banks, and giant corporations that benefit from open source
The difference between the food bank and this is that food cannot be consumed by everybody, all at once. It's near impossible to make "free" software that cannot be used by companies that are profitable. Who would police "profitability" when there's no money involved? The best you can hope for is to prevent a profitable company from using your code. Chances are, if the code is useful enough, someone else will write something similar without the same restriction.
My take: If you're writing FOSS, you know what you're getting into. If you need the money to do it, you should plan for that.
Parity license looks like a super aggressive and untested version of AGPL. I can't see what benefit using it over AGPL would be.
Prosperity license is at odds with the point of free software and almost certainly untenable.
It doesn't.

What does this part mean? Would you please dumb it down for me, perhaps with an example?
Ah, I understand it now! Thank you.
My goal was to remove copyright from my work, but using permissive licenses seemed to instead mean "I'll give up my copyright protection, but you can take my work and receive copyright protection and sue others".
