      And they told me posting on Lemmy wouldn’t accomplish anything!

      On a serious note, thanks!

    I love it. The only thing that makes me a little leery is this-

    though the bakery has kept their names a secret so that the charities “to avoid more hate spewed towards their mission.”

    Any organization they should be giving to as a response to that should be prepared to accept that hate because of what they support already.

      I love the idea for how it taps into that primal, “eating the heart of your enemy to take their power” vibe.

      Redacting the names is probably just a liability thing which, in today’s litigious environment, I can’t fault the bakery for doing.

      If the messages were posted publicly, those people have no expectation of privacy. Name them.

    Disappointing that they blacked out the commentors names.

    I read messages as massages and had a whole sit and think about what homophonic massages are.

      I think homophonic massages are just messages again
