In a sense, we already have an omnipresent totalitarian regime like China’s. The difference is that our rulers outsource tyranny, so that for now it is not imposed directly by the government. However, when all major companies act aggressively on behalf of the same political agenda, they are in effect arms of the government — an authoritarian government that is not restricted by borders. GoFundMe is a case in point:
GoFundMe blocked the release of almost $10 million in donations to the “Freedom Convoy,” Friday in connection with “the promotion of violence and harassment” in Ottawa.
“Promotion of violence and harassment” is an accusation any advocate of liberty can expect from authoritarian leftists. Readers will recall that, in order to justify using the FBI to intimidate them, the Biden regime made similar allegations against parents who spoke out at school board meetings against their children being subjected to antiwhite race hate indoctrination.
Donors had two weeks to ask for a refund, and the rest of the money the group raised would be allocated to “credible and established charities” chosen by Freedom Convoy organizers, the site said.
It is unclear what options the organizers had to chose from when deciding who would get their money.
The Freedom Convoy enrages the liberal establishment because it is a protest against increasingly absurd Covid dictates. When you donate money through GoFundMe to any cause that does not have the liberal establishment’s stamp of approval, it may not go to its intended recipient.
Recall that GoFundMe blocked donations to the legal defense of Kyle Rittenhouse, a good kid who was getting railroaded on behalf of Black Lives Matter, and who despite the liberal establishment’s efforts was found innocent in a court of law.
At the risk of stating the obvious, no one who values freedom or their own money should ever again use GoFundMe. But GoFundMe is no outlier.
Due to their extreme intolerance, it is often not possible to do business with liberals. Yet as we learned during the Black Lives Matter riots, nearly all companies position themselves as advocates of the radical left.
This is creating an unstable situation. The Freedom Convoy that so terrifies progressives is only the beginning of the pushback.
