Online global e-commerce platform @Etsy still has not responded to the petition calling on corporate heads to stop selling incest + child abuse themed merch.

So we got together with some of our global anti sexploitation partners to send a letter to #Etsy's major shareholders.

We wrote to these @Etsy shareholders:

@Vanguard_Group
@blackrock
@TRowePrice
@StateStreetGA
@Fidelity
@Wellington_Mgmt
@ZweigDiMenna

These companies are profiting from @Etsy's sexploitative merch - including replica child body parts marketed for men's sexual use, and products with slogans which normalise + fetishise child sexual abuse. #EtsyExploitation

Investors should not be propping up companies that sell child sexual abuse material and incest +child abuse themed merch.

We doubt their clients would want their investments directed to such an unethical corporation as @Etsy. #ESG #CSR #EtsyChildSexAbuseDolls #EtsyExploitation

We're asking investors to exercise shareholder power and call on @Etsy to remove all sexploitative listings from its platform and prevent all similar listings in future. And if Etsy refuses, we're asking them to review their continued financial relationship with Etsy. #ESG #CSR

Last year we found @Etsy flogging child sex abuse dolls + replica child body parts marketed for men's sexual use. One seller claimed a doll was modelled off a 14 yo Instagram influencer+ offered custom dolls modelled off pics of children. collectiveshout.org/etsy_selling_c…

Earlier this year we found @Etsy selling a range of merch which normalised and fetishised incest + child sex abuse, sending the message that girls want to be abused by their fathers.

We pointed out @Etsy's double standards - claiming to 'keep commerce human' while profiting from some of the most degrading products - including replica child-like 'Asian girl mouths' for men's sexual use - we've ever seen. #EtsyCSAM #etsyexploitation

We're backing a petition by Australian musician, fashion designer Anna Cordell calling on @etsy corporate heads to stop selling incest + child abuse themed merch.

Despite almost 50k signatures, @Etsy's board of directors has stayed silent.

Now we're waiting for @Etsy's shareholders to tell us what they're doing to stop Etsy's sale of child sexual abuse material and incest + child abuse themed merch. #endsexploitation #etsyexploitation $ETSY #ESG #corporatesocialresponsibility #CSR #EtsyChildSexAbuseDolls
