If it makes a difference, I just looked at the Renee Good GoFundMe, and it closed at $1,500,000.

It doesn't, she's fucking dead.

Yeah, fair point.

A lot of people are dead, but they weren't white and didn't get a GoFundMe, or even mentioned by the news.

I mean yeah true, but the point is that they deserve it too, not that she didn't.

IIRC, her family closed it after getting in way more money than they ever imagined and suggested that folks donate to other impacted families.

Yep, $1,500,000 out of 50k.
