The digital security breach was first detected on October 5 when suspicious activity was spotted on Amnestyās IT infrastructure, Amnesty International Canada said in a statement on Monday.
Amnestyās IT infrastructure
Because they became a woke gay/trans-rights org instead of a group advocating for the release of political prisoners. Itās the same reason I gave up membership in Jewish Voices for Peace. They threw all their weight behind anti-pipeline protests which I did not support.
I donāt know how it happened, aside from observing that this issue seems to pervade everything these days. I sent them this email in 2014, back when western nations were obsessed with African anti-gay laws. We have since shifted to being obsessed with Russian anti-gay laws so the Africans are getting a pass of late.
I have been a long time donor to Amnesty, and remain one today. For many years, I have been proud to see the organization I support stand firm for political prisoners, dissidents, freedom of speech, refugees and victims of core human rights violations. It seems to me lately, however, that the only thing Iām seeing from Amnesty is screeching about homosexuals and how awful the Africans are for thinking differently from the west on the matter.
I am a practical man. If I disagree with a group on a topic or two, I can let that go if itās not core to our relationship. It seems to me that this is becoming more than just an aside, however, and is becoming Amnestyās main focus. Perhaps a name change to Amnesty Homosexual might be in order. If this is going to become Amnestyās focus, I will have to reevaluate whether this is the right group for me.
They didnāt even respond. I terminated my membership shortly after that.
Also this, more on topic for China. I have no idea why thereās a need to do a U-turn at that point but itās quite pretty so whatever.
That makes since, I guess. Iām surprised you didnāt investigate to find out why. I suppose we can assume that either the majority of members wanted to go in a different direction or they made an announcement saying so, at the very least.
