I haven’t donated money, but I can confirm that the messages are constant and very pleading in tone. Honestly they turn me off from donating at all.

    It is way, way worse than this. It’s not hundreds, it’s millions. 1 in 3 people in the US over 65 have some form of dementia. The Republican party is driven by dementia at this point. There is a literal reason they’ve been rhetorically targeting the cognitively impaired for the last ten years. I am a dementia care professional and this is not a joke.

      It’s 1 in 3? Damn. Do you know if that’s commonplace globally? 65 is the retirement age where I live.

      Seems like such a shame that we retire once our health deteriorates. I guess that’s by design, though.
