Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title.

5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
This dude is cooked.
He's got a long record, his crime was egregious, and white supremacists are abandoning him. Nick Fuentes came startlingly close to defending black people by saying that "Chud's" behavior was responsible for the violence.
Don't be fooled though. Chud's sin with white supremacists is making them look bad.
Why does he call himself Chud? What's the backstory to that
White supremacists don't exactly need help making themselves look bad. The mere fact that someone is s white supremacist marks them as the scum of the earth.
I’m not siding with this guy, but he had bail set and if the money can’t be used to pay bail then he is being denied bail. Just don’t let him post bail at all.
This is like, oh you’ll never get a million bucks, oh wait I mean a million of the right kind of money.
But bail is supposed to be set relative to the amount of money the defendant has and the crime committed. Kinda defeats the purpose if the dude just got piles of magic Internet money to post bail.
Bail is a system to oppress poor people. Bail should not exist. He should either be released until trial or held until trial (I side with holding him).
Gov says, “here is an amount we know you don’t have!”
Then they somehow raise that money from the community.
Now Gov says you can’t use that money because we never were gonna let you out.
That’s the part that is wrong.
You might want to look a little deeper than the headline.
I have. If a person can crowdfund money, it’s money. I don’t care. Even scumbags like this.
Should they have been allowed to crowdfund in the first place? That’s a good question.
I donated to Luigi. And, he wasn’t allowed bail at all.
When a government gets to decide that you can’t use the money you can raise to fund your legal fees (which includes bail), they are deciding how people should be prosecuted on a case by case basis, which is not equal for all.
Apparently there's a legitimate legal reason: https://lemmy.world/comment/23893766
There is no legitimate reason to tell a poor person that the money they have in their hand cannot be used to pay their bail.
That said, he needs to be denied bail because he’s a danger to society based on the accused crime.
They reduced it from 1.25m to 1m
He's only raised 0.25m
The issue is this "fundraiser" existed prior to the shooting and is not for legal defenses. It's blatantly and explicitly so he can go around and do the shit that lead to him shooting someone else and himself.
Like, you're "not siding with the guy" but are just wholesale making shit up to defend him...
Quick edit:
Because some people may need the math spelled out:
$1,250,000 reduced to 1,000,000 means the 250,000 he can't use for bail, he just gets to keep it.
He can't use it for bail but bail was already adjusted like it was.
And he can still (presumably) use it for legal fees.
Just what are you so upset about that you had to leap to an out an blantant racists defense?
Fuck the dude and fuck you. If you got put in jail and you said “here is money” and they said “no not that money” you’d be pissed.
As I said, you fuck, they should have just denied bail.
You, a moron, cannot see how that’s just the slippery slope to courts doing anything they want.
Screw off, asshole.
It's either money or it's being denied bail.
It can't be both and justifying the breach of law when it applies to people you don't agree with; it's funny how quick liberals are to abandon their principles when its liberalism dysfunctioning on someone they don't like.
Same exact vibes as Libertarians arguing age of consent laws.
If you were polite, I could have explained this to you.
Bro, I was a dick to you because YOU were an ass to me FIRST. You began our interaction in “bad faith” by accusing me of supporting them, when I very clearly outlined the problem was the bail system and judicial abuse.
ALSO, you can’t explain anything because you just make assumptions and criticize people for things they never did.
The BAIL SYSTEM is a system to keep poor people in jail. You’d know this if you’d GIVE SOME FUCKS. Hilarious. You’re a joke.
If you're planning on keeping your four day old account, you're gonna want to stop burning bridges so fast. There's not many people here who take time to explain shit.
Best of luck tho
I don’t plan to keep it. You’re not a bridge. It doesn’t need explanation: you’re wrong, and you’re gaslighting.
It is quite hilarious that you are so smug and judgemental about someone you claim is "just wholesale making shit up"
When you claim:
The issue is this "fundraiser" existed prior to the shooting and is not for legal defenses.
The op's article clearly states that only funds received AFTER the shooting are not to be used according to the judge. Funds for bail do not need to be acquired specifically for legal defense, in fact him receiving funds from his fans after the shooting most likely for his legal defense is expressly WHY the judge is saying they can't be used.
I guess I shouldn't have given you all this valuable information unless you "asked nicely" first. Silly me.
So many criminals only mistake is forgetting to be a billionaire.
Do the financial crimes first, then once your a billionaire you can do the other crimes.
I was able to finally find an article explaining why the funds couldn't be used, unlike the op article.
One major issue appears to be how the fundraiser was originally described. Critics have pointed out that early campaign messaging focused on supporting Eatherly and his family rather than explicitly stating that funds would be used for legal defence or bail.
Cannabalistic Humanoid Undergroud Dweller.
It has been a long time since I thought about that movie.
Good. I can’t wait until he gets gen pop justice. Try your racist pranks there, loser.
He'll join the White Aryan Brotherhood or some other violent, racist prison gang and get worse. US citizens have a fetish for violence and retribution and seem shocked when they get that on the streets. When we demand rehabilitation and re-education, it may take a generation, but it will become better.
The HBO limited series, "The Night Of", did a fantastic job with this reality
I wonder why Derek Chauvin doesn’t have a gang of protectors. He got colanderized in prison. 😂
Maybe I’m optimistic, but I don’t see the WAB accepting this douchebag. He clearly just wants to get a rise out of people, he doesn’t care about his white pride.
You'll be surprised what people do to survive in there.
At least he won’t be eating good for a long time. 🙂
Until he's pardoned out sent to some club fed (no pun intended, but I'll take it, anyway).
