GoFundMe races to remove fundraising pages supporting Luigi Mangione - sh.itjust.works

“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?

GoFundMe’s terms and conditions, however, are pretty clear. Users agree they will not use the platform for, among other things “the legal defense of financial and violent crimes, including those related to money laundering, murder, robbery, assault, battery, sex crimes, or crimes against minors.”

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?

What if we just want to support his lifetime pizza fund?
