Nonprofits That Are Ineffective, Harm Or Exploit, Yet Continue To Be Protected

 Too often excuses are made for the inadequacies and failures of nonprofit organizations. Protecting and defending the nonprofit becomes more important than addressing the reasons and problems why the nonprofit exists in the first place. This creates an endless loop in which the problems persist and even become worse, the nonprofit continues to exist and even profit and grow from the existence and growth of the problems, and nothing fundamentally changes for the better. 

I first saw this when it came to animal cruelty and dog fighting, and how this was exploited by a number of people and organizations that use animal suffering to promote themselves. Their actual programs and interventions were and are not only ineffective, but actually cause harm. Later, I saw how many other serious problems, including in the realm of conservation, biodiversity, wildlife and wildlife protection, plastic pollution, addressing hatred and racism, poverty, animal welfare, child welfare and more are similiarly exploited and addressed by worthless, ineffective or even harmful organizations.

Nothing changes for the better, because protecting organizations, institutions, and select people takes priority over all else.
