With its shop offer, Ye would violate Shopify’s terms of use, according to the reason.
Kanye West had promoted his Yeezy website for $ 20 on his Yeezy website in early February. The outcry was great, the consequence was not long in coming. Shopify, where the Yeezy online was docked, removed the shop of the rap and fashion mogul. The reason is the violation of the terms of use of the site.
Offensive content = against the shop rules
Shopify’s wording according to the US “Rolling Stone”: “All dealers are responsible for compliance with the rules of our platform. This dealer did not stick to authentic trading practices and violated our conditions, so we removed it from Shopify. ”
Thus, the white T-shirt with the black swastika can no longer be found on the net. The X-Account, on the Kanye West, has also deactivated the garment.
What happened before
At the beginning of February, West delivered a number of controversial tweets on X that did not remain without reactions.
After the controversial Grammy appearance, in which his partner Bianca Censori stood next to him in a transparent look, he conveyed on the platform: “I have the rule over my wife. This is not a “Woke as feminist” shit. She is with a billionaire, why should she listen to stupid, broken sluts on you? People say the look on the red carpet was their decision … Yes, I don’t force her to do something that she doesn’t want, but she couldn’t have done it without my consent, her stupid, woken farmers. “
He also insulted those who voted for Kamala Harris instead of Donald Trump in the US presidential election. In addition, there was a background role in the excuse for his insults from Jew: Inside in the past (keyword: “I can say whatever I want to say”). Plus: “I love Hitler.”
This kind of statements led to numerous people turning to Ye on X. “Friends” star David Schwimmer, on the other hand, used Instagram to ask X owners Elon Musk from there to remove Kanye West from the platform: “We cannot stop a disturbed fanatic from spitting hatched, ignorant bile … but we Can stop giving him a megaphone, Mr. Musk. ”And on:“ Kanye West has 32.7 million followers on your platform, X. That is twice as many people as there are Jews. His sick hate speeches lead to real violence against Jews. “
Lawsuit by employee
What followed after the X-Rants was a new complaint by a Yeezy employee. In her application submitted on February 11, she explained that she would feel attacked by Ye in her Jewish religion. He is also said to have sent her pornographic material and insulted you as Hitler and Nazi.
