@teespring just shut down our t-shirt fundraiser. Why? Because our shirts contain the word "antifa." A thread:pic.twitter.com/rsQJHmfQQh

Teespring is not a fascist company. Due to the recent increase of violent Antifa content, we have removed all Antifa related listings until we are able to review the intent behind the designs. Reviewing this content will take some time, so we appreciate your understanding.

Here are 6 Threeper items for sale on your site right now. In '18, Threepers firebombed a mosque in MN., tried to bomb a bank in OK City, & shot two people to death in MI. & OR. But let's ban antifa stuff instead, right @teespring?

nothing says "not a fascist company" like removing antifascists from your platform while continuing to sell merch for fascists, @teespring

I think I would consider anybody else's opinion on what constitutes fascism before antifa's opinion, because every person I see that calls themselves antifa or antifascist seems to be pretty much a fascist.

It's 2020. If your company has to publicly state "we're not a fascist company; we've just removed anything that says antifa on it," while continuing to sell stuff that supports fascist groups, you're not really convincing anyone of your non-fascist credentials.

Do you have examples of "violent antifa content"? Also, can you share how https://teespring.com/shop/aru-ky-d3p?aid=marketplace&tsmac=marketplace&tsmic=search&pid=2&cid=2397 … (depicted below) passed content review but
@antifaintl's shirt did not? FYI@c_lamontagne1 it very much seems there is some bias in either your policy or your reviewing process.pic.twitter.com/lIquI1iKa5

Teespring: "We're not fascist. We just have a problem with people who don't like fascism, so we're going to unilaterally remove them, like a fascist would."

The FBI designated the Proud Boys as "an extremist group with ties to white nationalism" in November 2018. They are an SPLC designated hate group. But you still sell shirts supporting them while you're removing anything that says "antifa" on it. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/nov/19/proud-boys-fbi-classification-extremist-group-white-nationalism-report …pic.twitter.com/ZSgqDxrJma
