The Canadian trucker "freedom convoy" has been an absolutely smashing success in its major demonstration against Canada's vaccine mandates, which means pretty much every major power-that-be in the whole wide world despises it.
Add to that list the fundraising site GoFundMe:
GoFundMe has suspended a fundraiser for the "Freedom Convoy" of truckers and supporters who have tied up downtown Ottawa while protesting vaccine mandates.
The fundraiser, which is now under review, has currently raised more than $10 million [Canadian]. It's the second time GoFundMe has suspended access to the money.
"This fundraiser is currently paused and under review to ensure it complies with our terms of service and applicable laws and regulations," said a pinned post from GoFundMe at the top of the fundraiser on Wednesday night. "Our team is working 24/7 and doing all we can to protect both organizers and donors. Thank you for your patience."
Funds were frozen by GoFundMe the first time in mid-January when the funds were at $4.5 million...
Hmmm. How best to put this?
This is not all that unexpected: GoFundMe has a history of targeting and suspending successful campaigns even remotely affiliated with anything resembling conservatism.
The company is increasingly like the kid who takes his kickball and stomps home from the sandlot if the game doesn't go exactly his way.
The bright side: We can clearly see that the convoy is working. Keep it up, truckers! Don't back down!
