I mean Planned Parenthood is explicitly NOT a charity. It's an ineffective Political Action Committee that spent decades bilking donations and wasn't even able to codify roe v wade. They don't deserve shit. Hospitals in the US are also explicitly not Charities. They may be non-profits, maybe, but they don't run on donations, they expect payments from patients for services rendered. There is no world where those examples of the failures of a Capitalist society should be considered a charity.
Except they're literally a charity.
There's a PAC of the name but Planned Parenthood proper is a 501(c)(3).
