Ebay will no longer sell bayonets on Ebay!

[ka-fishnfarm]

 RED ALERT!!!!

I called twice about all of a sudden I can not list bayonets on Ebay although I sold them for twenty years on Ebay. The first time I called they said they would call me back and never did. The secound time I called, the next day. I was told to never list bayonets agaon on Ebay again and they hung up on me. They said it will take time to kick every one else off!  Well after 20 years I guess I'm done on Ebay 100% feed back! They say they are kicking every bayonet off Ebay because they are not allowed period!

Ok, confederate flags, 50 state legal, ownership, display  and sale 100% protected by the 1st a but not allowed on ebay, there are many more examples, again ebay 100% has the right to not allow confederate sales but there is absolutely no laws in the US that prevent their sale

You're not getting the picture apparently.  -The picture of a screenshot of search results with a bunch of orange flags symbolizing what they symbolize, with the eBay logo at the top of the screen ..... and then that screenshot being shared all over the internet, and a boycott ensuing.  

It's just another example of eBay being smart with their capitalism.   Same reason youtube takes things down.  Same reason social media take things down.  Not "wokeism".  Not "communism".  Not "gatekeeping."  Not "cancelling."  Just good business sense!  

Next!

Yes all of what you stated is ebay ideology

Then why are there new listings every day and thousands of bayonets  listed on Ebay. Search bayonet and see!

[ka-fishnfarm]

Do a bayonet search on Ebay.

[ka-fishnfarm]

It's called woke ism or communism!

[ka-fishnfarm]

Do a search on Ebay for bayonet.

[ka-fishnfarm]

Really? What is it then?

[ka-fishnfarm]

Show me where it says bayonet?

[ka-fishnfarm]

Thank you!

Please explain what is woke about this? Which minority is protected by eBay by preventing you from selling bayonets?

When a capitalist corporation doesn't do what you want it to do, it's not "woke" or communism. It's still capitalism.

Woke = alert to social, especially racial, injustice. 

Communism =  a society in which all property is publicly owned and each person works and is paid according to their abilities and needs.

Please explain how this is either of those. Seriously, explain it to me. 

[doc-holmes]

It's capitalism.

I swear, this gets confused (or misnamed) almost as much as the first amendment.

I'm a big fan of all the "everything I don't like is woke" memes.

ebay bans things all the time based on ideology that are perfectly 50 state legal, which again they 100% have the right to do but the idea that they only care about what is legal or not is just not true

Ebay bans the sale of this Magic the Gathering card. The amount of stuff they ban is incredible.

Why?
