Giving to charity to spite someone

Whenever I see protests in front of Planned Parenthood, I give to Planned Parenthood out of maltruism.

lol, Altruism? Why should I have to pay for someone elses' continued survival? Let natural selection take it's place *lol* (Three-billion years of multicellular evolution for nothing)

Toxic Altruism

When one's unsolicited help causes damage.

She has a terrible habit of intruding to help when not even asked for, which mostly ends in a disaster. That is the definition of toxic altruism.
