minus-squareFlying Squid@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up15·27 days agoI 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.

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