Shopify allows merchandise designed to get people killed. We know Shopify allows this because they allow a store, LibsOfTikTok, whose goal is to get trans people murdered or at least get them to kill themselves.

There have already been multiple bomb threats at children’s hospitals and violent attacks at queer events directly because of Chaya Raichik of LibsOfTikTok who is using Shopify services.
