If Etsy were to not permit sales of this, what stops them from doing the same for "No Kings" merch, or other liberal slogans. It is terrible people are creating this merch, but Etsy removing it would set a precedent that would be terrible if applied to other views.

This is the kind of both-sides-ism that is ruining our country. There is no reason to think that No Kings, an actual putative Amercian value, is the equivalent of building a concentration camp for the purposes of illegally putting people in them.

I'm not suggesting the sentiment behind the two is similar or even comparable, but someone on the right could view liberal slogans the same way and demand Etsy remove them, which would be outrageous. I know we non-maga are on the right side of history, but we cannot demand unconstitutional things.

It's not un-Constitutional. Etsy is not the US government.

You're right, it was hard to write out my thought with the character limit.
