Yes, it's a way of excusing lifestyles of luxury via immoral causes.
The modern equivalent of paying indulgences to the Catholic Church; the wealthly have always sought ways of justifying the grotesqueries of their lifestyles. Indeed for many, it's the primary labor of their lives.

- MadnessASAP 3y agoI don't know much about EA other then it sounds like a way for the rich to justify their existence. Indulgences however they may have started, became grossly twisted and simplified until it was giving money to the church in exchange for absolving sins.
