Depop, as some of you will know, is a relatively new and up-and-coming second-hand and vintage online marketplace, very popular amongst young people today. The organisation, however, has recently been highlighted for being run by anti-semitic left-wingers and downright terror supporters!

As a modern British organisation, it is supposed to remain unbiased in political discussions and yet be outspoken against terror and genocide, not allowing any hate speech to fester. Free speech and terror support are not the same thing.

Various accounts on Depop have reported seeing t-shirts being sold with images of Netanyahu depicted as Hitler (see image). These same sellers have reported the item various times and yet the item still remains up for sale. The "Free Palestine" merchandise available on Depop will leave you scrolling through it for hours, whilst the proudly Pro-Israel items are non-existent, having been banned. Only the odd hat with the word "Jerusalem" on it or a football t-shirt remain.

One Jewish seller has reported uploading a T-shirt to sell with the words "F- Hamas" on it and with a humorous pretty pink bow covering the UCK. One week later, the seller received an email stating that the item had been reported by other accounts, but to be rest assured, the item will not be taken down because it is not in breach of any policies. This was a relief...especially after having received a barrage of aggressive direct messages sent from random pro-terrorism shoppers. They said things like "F Israel", to put it nicely, or "Free Palestine", as if a non-existent entity could be freed anyway. Stupid questions like "why would you kill people if your people were murdered in the past?". The total IQ of these shoppers could probably be added up to a total of 55. Anyway, the week later, the t-shirt was taken down and the person's entire account blocked. This was appealed many times, yet Depop kept coming back with a new policy they unknowingly had "breached". Once one breach was debunked, they came up with another and so on until Depop stopped replying because they couldn't create a big enough argument to ban the seller.

Photos of the "Netanyahu as Hitler" t-shirt were sent directly to Depop, asking why it had not been taken down, yet no reply was given and the gaslighting, Holocaust-jeering Neo-Nazi item still remains up today.

It is suspected that the workers who logged in one day to screen Depop for breaches held some sort of a bias against the Jews, whilst the previous week, whoever logged in to do the job didn't hold a bias, and so stated that the item was not in breach of the policies. This NEEDS to be investigated, and the employees punished for anti-semitism.

These claims, as troubling as they are, appear to be mainstream nowadays. Evidence of these allegations needs to be thoroughly investigated and Depop should be held accountable for allowing hate speech and harmful products to be sold on its marketplace. We demand a comprehensive investigation into Depop's Anti-Semitic and pro-terrorism bias. We also urge the responsible authorities to take immediate action to prevent any future propagation of hate ideologies on such platforms. Anti-Semitism and terror support, and any hate speech for that matter, have no place in British society. Hamas has legally been branded a Terrorist Organisation in the UK, so any support for it should be LEGALLY held accountable.

Please help by signing this petition and urging the accountability and swift action against Depop.
