Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

MODERATORS
The fact they are still Shopify employees at this point is comment enough.
They're customer support. They're not making decisions at the company, they're just trying to pay their bills.
And they likely work for a call center that shopify contracts to handle support
They're working for a Nazi company. If they're not starting the job search now, they're probably not far from looking into one of those shirts themselves.
Right now it seems a lot like we're in a nazi country. Did you move out or stop it?
"Just following orders"
If you lived in a shithole one-room apartment in Bangalore you shared with 10 people but the meager pay from the call center job you have allows you to have two meals a day if you're careful what you buy, you'd "just follow orders" too.
Not everybody is privileged enough that they can afford to put their morals before their rent, and that's no fault of their own. You're upset with the wrong people.
Hell, we see tons of keyboard warriors wanting to eat the rich but how many billionaires have been shot in the last year?
One.
OP would be the first to keep his job in their situation.
Zero. Everyone keeps calling that dude a billionaire but he was only worth 44 million. Luigi's family has more money than him.
Oh really?
That's even worse! Billionaires shouldn't exist and if they do they should live in constant fear for their lives.
It’s not uncommon to watch a corpse float down the river or witness a bisection via train in India. I don’t think the chat staff cares. But using them as a barrier against rightful criticism is worthy of being called out or more
lol love how you just assumed the call center is in India
Because being in a company that sells such a shirt cuz you gotta pay bills is totally the same as partaking in the holocaust.
The road to the holocaust included selling armbands with the swastika too. But that wasn't even the point I was making.
I'm going to let you in on a little secret, large companies are not run by shareholders and management, they are run by the workers, even if they don't realise it.
These workers don't work for Shopify. Companies like Shopify contract out to call center companies. I'm not sure why that isn't clear to you.
These people are probably not even only fielding calls for Shopify. It's probably one of a dozen different companies they have to take calls for during their work day.
What I (and the people working at those call centers) would give to lead a life as sheltered and priviledged as yours.
You'd denigrate the forklift operator loading cargo onto a truck without first looking inside.
Except in this case everyone just got a good look at what's inside the container, and it's mostly Nazism.
Seems a little extreme to claim that it's unethical to work for a company because someone who uses their product did something unethical.
Guess we've extended "there is no ethical consumption under capitalism" to "there is no ethics under capitalism" entirely.
Bruh jobs don't grow on trees and some people have others counting on them and can't be a martyr.
