Cancelled Listing with Confederate Flag depiction

[cza987]

I had 2 items (patches) cancelled because they contained depictions of a Confederate flag???? Yet EBay ALLOWS Chinese Flags, Nazi Flags and Russian flags and their depictions to be sold no problem.  Murderous dictators are fine? Countries that actually PRACTICE SLAVERY TODAY are ok? I think it is very HYPOCRITICAL and wrong. My items were from an English Rock Band that toured the Southern US in the 80's an were not promoting hate speech or slavery. Ebay needs to review this highly selective hypocritical policy.

     Yep it's one of those things you can't list anymore. Just blot out the confederate flag. A friend of mine wanted a confederate flag not too long ago and I could not find one on any ecommerce site so I picked him one up at the gift shop at the Manassas battle field park.

EBay does not allow the sale of Nazi items except for coins or stamps. Some listings may fall thru the cracks. Feel free to report them.

Anything promoting hate or violence is not allowed. Ebay is very clear about it. Confederate flags/images are specifically banned.

This is all baloney! I reported several time Ukrainian Nationalist Nazis (f.e.Stepan Bandera) paraphernalia and items and they are still listed! Where can I finally put a stop to it?

and to think, I have one I want to sell.

also have some books from the Confederate Air Force before they changed their name. I am sure e-bay will not let me list them either.

I had a Shot Glass taken down over 2 years ago for the same reason,So this policy has been in effect for some time!, Good Luck selling it, I donated mine to Goodwill

You cannot put a stop to it, because it does not fit the current U.S. geopolitical narrative, and so such items are considered perfectly okay.   Just as it's perfectly fine for Americans to go around saying "Slava Ukraini" or "Glory to Ukraine!" no matter the chill it sends up the spines of those of who know the origins of those slogans.

There are full time activists for tax exempt organizations who spend their time finding American symbols which need suppression.

Recent  targets include the Gadsden Flag and the Pine Tree Flag. If you have any to sell you had better act soon.
