GoFundMes for Luigi Mangione's Legal Defense Emerge After Police ID Him as Suspect in United Health CEO Killing: 'I Hope He Can Be Comfortable'

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 it’s okay for people to run many, many GoFundMe pages that support Trump’s legal affairs. Got it.’

    The consistent creation of fundraising pages of Mangione follows the macabre reaction much of the public has had to the assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

    More like the perfectly reasonable reaction.

      They either can’t see what’s going on, or they can’t admit it in case it encourages solidarity among the poors.

    This guy doesn’t need a GoFundMe.

    He could start an Only Fans where he talked about his ideas with his shirt off and he’d be set for life, or at least until Nintendo sued him off the Internet.

    Dont get scammed…

    Once you find a proper place, use crypto.

    If you don’t know how to do any of this. Stop. Learn. Then come back.

      lol so when you pull your money out you’re immediately marked by the Feds? Crypto isn’t magic dude, in fact it’s extremely traceable. Only scammers want you to believe it isn’t.

    Huh? Isn’t he entitled to the best defence he can get?

    Innocent until proven guilty, remember.
