    So looks like Go Fund Me screwed the Canadian truckers out of eight or nine million bucks. So thus, another Silicon Valley tech company tries to trample on freedom, nothing new there. At any rate, Give Send Go has picked up the slack.

    Well, they tried...until they got their brains beat in in public forums and their lawyers advised them they were going to get their asses sued off if they tried this shit. They still suck sweaty balls and there is absolutely zero reason for them to not give these funds to the truckers for whom it was donated.

    "GoFundMe originally said it would allow individual users to apply for refunds and would "work with organizers to send all remaining funds to credible and established charities verified by GoFundMe," but the company soon abandoned this approach.​
    Early Saturday morning, GoFundMe posted a Tweet announcing they "will be refunding all donations to the Freedom Convoy 2022 fundraiser. This refund will happen automatically — you do not need to submit a request. Donors can expect to see refunds within 7-10 business days."​

    I wonder if Go Fund me makes more $ from lock downs and restrictions than they do from people who want to end Government mandates...
    More people sick, more money coming in? More kids getting delayed cancer treatment..etc... I bet you are correct.

    This is when the smart people start getting on board with parallel economy's. Give Send Go, Gab, Signal, Telegram, local small shops and grocery outlets.

    Avoid: Facebook, Coke, Nike, Wal-Mart. TARGET.....any company on the list of partners for the Wolrd Economic Forum, list goes on.


    You know the thing...
     
    Anyone who donated to the gofundme with their credit card, would probably be better-off if they were to DISPUTE the charge because of the conduct of the management of gofundme. Just to be sure.

    And safe.

    After all, that is part of what the benefit of using a credit card is about, right? The protection of the customer. It's for the children...

    Yes, that was brought up on social media last night. It may not be much but it’s something
     
    I'm sure that the threat of a criminal investigation by the Attorney Generals of FL and TX played a role in their backpedaling as well. But what gall to even consider taking peoples donations and diverting them to whatever cause they choose. No doubt those funds would have been funneled to leftist terrorist organizations like Antifa and BLM.

    eh...full reporting (I know...a rarity in the age of advocacy and the death of real journalism) of GFM's statement say:

    "GoFundMe said it would work with organizers to send all remaining funds to "credible and established" charities chosen by Freedom Convoy 2022 organizers that are verified by the fundraising platform."

    They still suck, they were still extraordinarily high handed and presumptuous, they were still wrong....but, according to them the legitimate charities would get any remaining funds would have been chosen by the organizers of the protest.

    Take it for what its worth...but don't believe anything you hear and only half of what you see.

    Yeah, I saw that too. But initially, they stated that they would be sending the funds to "reputable charities" of their choosing. Then they said they would allow Freedom Convoy to choose. And finally they relented and just agreed to refund everyone. Hard to keep track of all their BS.

    Big time: BLM, ADL, DNC, to name a few three letter Orgs.
