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.

    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:

      People who contribute to these accounts won’t lose their money—GoFundMe’s giving guarantee ensures donors a full refund in case of misuse or other problems with a fundraiser.
