Check out the thread. Fairly large sums of money ($400-$2000) were donated by prominent poker pros such as Ike Haxton, Jesse Martin, Dan Smith, Dani Stern, and Jason Koon.
I then googled this "Minnesota Freedom Fund" and came up with the following article in The Hollywood Reporter, which is NOT a right-leaning publication:

A number of Hollywood stars on Thursday said they made a donation to a fund meant to help bail out Minneapolis protesters. Some of those bold-faced names include Seth Rogen, Steve Carell and Ben Schwartz.
Peaceful protests turned into rioting and looting Wednesday night in Minneapolis following the death of George Floyd, an African American man who died Monday after his throat was kneeled on by a white police officer.
While it is not clear how many arrests police made throughout Wednesday night, celebrities made donations to the Minnesota Freedom Fund, a community-based nonprofit that pays bail for low-income individuals, according to the fund's website.
So these genius virtue signaling poker pros are shipping money to get "justice for George Floyd", but are really funding the bail and legal defense for the criminals who looted and destroyed Minneapolis. Several Hollywood celebrities have also already donated.
Oh, but Sloppy Joe says that it's just a strawman argument that people support the rioting.
