"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.

Why are they removing these?

I'm being generous here, but they might not be set up by someone that's actually connected with the guy. They probably should be taking down fake pages that amount to scams. I have no proof of that, just a thought. If they are taking down legit pages from people associated with the legal defense then it's as fucked as it sounds.

Because they assume he's guilty.

Guilty people need legal defense too

The captalist system had already decided that he will be punished

So Trump et al can have GFM pages but this guy can't? Kinda makes me never want to use GFM ever again.

Trump is a billionaire who furthers the cause of the owners and not a turncoat to the owner class like Luigi.

The current system is designed so the owner class can do as they please, including slaughter us for a tidy profit, and so that we cannot do anything that interferes with that.

Kind of the whole point.

unless they're organised by Luigi or his family I'm convinced these are just opportunistic scammers. better for everyone to keep them off gfm
