      They don't particularly do things at a smaller scale though, do they? When you think "Charitable contributors," you don't think "Koch brothers" or "Donald Trump" or etc. (I actually can't think of a mainstream right-wing charity contributor besides Thiel.) You think of Gates+co.

      Most of it is small scale philanthropy, or religious I think

      It really makes you wonder, doesn't it? Like, "Everything will be cured by philanthropy!" sounds awesome but...if it's just poor people helping worse-off poor people, and not the people making policy....hm.

      And generally those are food banks and the like, not say, medical help.

      Replying to @gypsy_panther @eigenrobot

      I'd say the impetus behind right-wing philanthropy (minus the Neo-Cons) is along the lines of "we can help the needy in our community through charity" with an implicit "if they're not in my community, I don't want to be involved in their welfare at all."

      What exactly /is there/ in terms of the right helping people with medical costs, or housing costs or educational cost? Genuinely curious here - even if it's just in the context of a local community. I can pretty much only think of food banks.

      Religious /= right, absent data I'm not convinced that righties give more to actual charities (as opposed to charities that mostly just exist to export ideology) as compared to quakers, uu, etc

      I'm kinda not joking, I'd want actual evidence before being convinced that righty charity isn't predominantly about convincing Africans that condoms and gays are evil and/or tithing to megachurches

          In which someone uninterested in discussions with opposing viewpoints learns an incantation allowing them to dismiss badthink. It's bleakly hilarious how learning the word outgroup can make people think they are immune to the exact same cognitive biases re their own outgroup

          Hiki, the "a madman is someone who does the same thing over and over expecting different results" thing might not be literally true but also it might describe a "You Mad?"-man.

          And I say that as someone who is extremely cynical about charity effectiveness basically across the board. Most lefty charities are also ineffective. And whatever motivates people to actually think about charitable impact doesn't appear to be exclusively partisan in the least.
