Wikipedia isn't a human in desperate plight. That's kind of the point I'm making.

You might be confused, we're talking about Wikipedia not the Red Cross.

Wikipedia doesn't help starving children in any way.

It's ironic that you use Red Cross as an example. An organization that has been proven again and again to be among the worst charity orgs you can donate to, repeatedly spends money on anything else but charity, and often does things that are both antithetical to their stated mission and unethical to boot.

They're terrible to their employees too.

And related to that, some of the practices raise eyebrows.

(For example, letting children play in your freezers and around your blood and plasma donations.)
