The Neo-Nazi Candace Owens who is best known for spreading virulent hatred of skin color on the Internet, has just had one of her campaigns banned on GoFundMe.

After raising $205,000 in a few hours @gofundme decided to halt my campaign for the Parkside Cafe in Alabama. At their discretion, they deemed that funds raised for a conservative business constitutes “intolerance”
They WILL however give the funds raised thus far to the cafe… pic.twitter.com/Mfw88iDKRi— Candace Owens (@RealCandaceO) June 7, 2020
Owens who is a key political ally of Donald Trump was not saved from deplatforming despite Trump’s executive order that was allegedly designed to prevent censorship.
But quite honestly, it was a shocker to many of us that Owens was allowed to use corporate tech platforms like GoFundMe for such a long period of time. Because as many of us already know, Owens is one of the most hardcore and racist White supremacist extremists on the Internet.
It would not be a surprise to see her banned from all the big social media sites shortly due to her continued promotion of virulent hate.
