I decided to look into this and it was a gigantic waste of time so here's what I found so that you don't have to. From the page:

> Allegedly, I was “raising funds in order to take part in activities that are likely to cause loss of life.” Despite this being not even remotely true [..]

The money was being raised to allow the OP to be on the "Defend Europe" boat, which exists "to hamper the rescue of refugees in the Mediterranean".

(Also, how had no-one registered the "patreonsucks.com" domain before now?)
