I think the point of his rant was that people should investigate the charities that they want to give to. And not so much that not enough people have this disease but rather people have limited funds, they will give to the charities that affect them personally. Rather than just be taken over by social media peer pressure.

I have charities that I support, does not giving to ALS make me a bad person? If I gave $100 to them then for sure I would be pulling money from another charity, ones that I have a personal connection with. I don't want to do that.

saying that, if everybody else wants to do the challenge and donate money to ALS that is great for them.

edit: I think lots of the opposition to this challenge is people do not like the feeling of being forced or pressured to do something.
