Nah, orphan crushing machine is when you know their name, the donation is part of their marketing budget, and there's conditions on the donation (a plaque, changing the name of the food bank to the donors name, etc)
Anonymous help is genuine help and is not something to focus criticism on.
Maybe youre not aware of what that means. Orphan crushing machine is relative to a situation and what at first what sounds like a heartwarming action, until you question why that action was needed in the first place.
No focus on the good samaritan(s) here, rather it is sad that in this world you need a saviour to keep a foodbank afloat, and deeper, sadder still that foodbanks are needed in the first place.
The orphan crushing machine - the heartless system. The criticism is on society having holes for people to fall through.
The classic orphan crushing machine story is about that 6 year old that worked through summer to pay off his classmates lunch debt. The good samaritan, loved young boy. The orphan crushing machine, the school system that would cut off lunches for low income students that couldnt pay off their debt.
