I cant say i agree, Arthur. Evangelical 'aid' comes at the price of being entangled in their horrid bullshit (ie that NY tent hospital being instructed to discriminate trans people), while ideally leftists would try to help keep people alive and well while the gov does nothing.

Everyone who works in charity would also say the ideal is doing good and helping people who need it. In practice, whether you get actual help depends on whether people providing the aid like you or think they can economically coerce others into "virtue" by withholding help.

Mutual aid is a form of community organizing, which makes it a plausible stepping stone to political activism. It's the kind of thing you need in place before you can do a general strike or a bus boycott. Very different from the top-down structure of charity.
