Demand Etsy Discontinue Hate Propaganda


Demand Etsy Discontinue Hate Propaganda
The Issue
Etsy is an online retail platform designed to allow makers and creators to sell their products. Etsy claims to prohibit items that "glorify hate" according to their own web site. However, Etsy is allowing creators to sell and promote items displaying the phrase "Alligator Alcatraz" referring to the Florida-based ICE detention facility. This directly violates Etsy's own policies by targeting hate towards our immigrant community members - many of which buy and sell on the Etsy platform.
We are demanding an immediate suspension of any accounts selling "Alligator Alcatraz" and pledge to suspend all business with Etsy until said action is complete.
