GoFundMe pages are the latest example of support for Luigi Mangione, and the public's frustration with the health insurance industry.

“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.

    If GoFundMe picks and chooses who gets to abide by their terms and who doesn’t, can people challenge them in court? TOS includes: 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.” Why is this different for Luigi than Trump? How can one be denied and the other given a pass, legally?

      How can one be denied and the other given a pass,

      Unfortunately I think the honest answer is something like “fuck off, pleb”

      legally?

      Oh sorry, I missed that last word there. In that case I think the answer is something like “fuck off, counselor”
