    People seem to glance over the fact that “not doing something” can be just as political as “doing something”

    Banning the donation doesn’t mean girl scouts is avoiding something political. They just made the statement that they don’t support Palestine which is just as political as making the donation. It’s not some free copout that they can get away with Scott free.
