I am a Jew Working in Global Supply Chain - This Is What I Think About the Shein Swastika Scandle

I am really disappointed by the ethical and sustainable fashion communities' silence on SHEINS swastika necklace.

Sorry, but I’m not sorry, I find it just a touch hypocritical that members of the community will go on campaigns to have companies that use the word kimono put out of business because it is “violent” (which, by the way, to date, calling a garment a kimono has never lead to any sort of bloodshed), yet they won't say a word when swastikas (which actively represent millions of deaths – 11 million to be exact) are being not only sold but actively advertised on Jewish peoples feeds.

Where is the support?

This article covers everything, from the appropriation of the swastika by Nazis, to antidotals of times in China explaining what Jewish people are, to interactions with ethical fashion supporters who don't count anti-semitism as racism.
