“We are raising funds to support a critical legal defense in the fight against unchecked corporate power and a system that continues to favor the few over everyone else. This case isn’t just about one individual—it’s about challenging a status quo that protects the interest of the powerful at the expense of justice and fairness,” read one of the fundraising pages that was quickly removed by GoFundMe.
I’m confused. Why is this not allowed? Whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty?
(S)
Unless the criminal is wealthy, like Trump. Then they can have all the money.
Maybe he has a decent shot at President now
Depends, is he a grotesquely corrupt, bigoted Christian white nationalist (since Italians are allowed to be considered white now)? That seems to be the kind of person America wants.
It’s so weird how they allow January 6th insurrectionists to have GoFundMes with no problems. Very weird indeed.
They didn’t use GoFundMe.
They had to use GiveSendGo, which is basically GoFundMe for fascists.
I’m gonna take a wild guess and assume fascist GoFundMe would similarly block these
Apparently not.
Can we talk about these teeth?
No. I have to go to the store, I can’t afford anything so eye brows
One of the few things working class people of all political leanings agree on. The problem with using Fashy GoFundMe is that I’d be even less inclined to trust the money would go where it’s supposed to than on regular GoFundMe.
Has there been an investigation or is this just suspicion?
Suspicion. Maybe they’re perfectly legit.
But we don’t want to tip him for the crime he committed; we want to tip him for supporting healthcare access!
…also if GoFundMe takes a page down, what happens to the funds already donated?
Automatic refunds. Something something ‘donor protection program’… That’s also in their terms.
/edit:
What if we just want to support his lifetime pizza fund?
But running Trump defense funds is OK?
Thanks! I should have figured they just blanket block some stuff.
Because it’s only a democracy until u start getting into interests of a ruling class.
