One of the more pathetic developments around the Ukraine war is the newly resurrected process of buying indulgences. The catholic church realized that forgiveness was a product to be sold as far back as the middle ages, the left has now learned that they can salve their soul for the crime of not standing up to an unjust war by giving money to "relief" organizations which are really nothing more than private money laundering operations. The modern day indulgences are just as pathetic, craven and cynical as the old world form in the church. The left tells themselves they are helping by donating money to victim relief funds but never really keep track of the status of those funds and don't really care about the results of their donation after its been made. At least they are sleeping well at night.

There are now 100s of identified scam websites for ukraine aid, fund raisers for ukraine are happening in almost every major company in America. I would bet billions have been raised for humanitarian relief. The problem is most of it is just one more angle to steal from people.
