The LDS church is a force of evil in the world and $1 million dollars (0.002% of their annual proceeds) is pretty cheap for an ad to control the narrative.
Worse, it'd be like if you gave 10 cents. The LDS church has an investment portfolio worth 100 billion dollars and brings in several billion a year in just tithes.
This is a clear effort to LOOK like they’re doing something while donating such a tiny fraction of the wealth they hoard that it won’t even make a dent.
The Mormon church imo is worse than the Catholic Church. At least the Catholics are open about being shitty and we all know it. The Mormons basically run 2 states and nobody talks about it
