♥ himechar [Special] ALS Ice Bucket Challenge 漸凍人冰桶挑戰 ♥ http://youtu.be/Qgt-YoMqZAk\

First, I'd like to state that I'm against 1) the challe
nge to donate structure, 2) the waste of water, and 3) ALS Association doing animal testing.\
Raising awareness through creativity and fun is good, but it's becoming more of a contest and joke at times. It's a horrible disease and shouldn't be portrayed as anything like fun. My own father is a cancer survivor, if I were to see the disease in the social media this way, I would be f*ing pissed. Do the ends justify the means? How many celebs recorded the video and donated without putting much thought? How many of you have been watching those viral videos, had a good laugh, but not donating to any charity?\
Therefore, I wouldn't be recording this video if I was not challenged by a fellow streamer friend. Hopefully you may get to understand ALS as a disease, like any other fundraising campaigns in need of public attention. I won't be naming anyone in particular, as I believe donations should NOT be a challenge or a hype. It's a selfless habit and one should take his own time to consider the causes that he cares most about. \

Sorry, I'm so serious.\

我中文可能表達不當,請包涵。首先,我是反對1)捐助是挑戰的形式、2)浪費水、3)漸凍人研究採動物實驗。這樣的創意與好玩引起社會大眾注意確實是達到了,可是它很多時候變得扭曲像競賽像玩笑。這個病症是殘酷的,一點都不該是這樣的媒體形象。試問有多少公眾人物錄了影片、捐了也沒認識它太多?有多少觀眾看了很多冰桶挑戰影片,笑了,卻沒有捐助任何慈善團體?為了達到目的,就可以不擇手段嗎?所以如果不是被友善的實況主點名,我不會錄這個影片。或許我的觀眾因此而認識這個病症,開始了解其他需要被關注的募款。我不會點名任何人,因為捐助該是自發的習慣,無須挑戰或流行。每一個人都有能力去捐助這個世界,多一點愛與關懷,花一點時間選擇你想要支持的目標。抱歉我太嚴肅~ <3\
