The wildly popular illegal alien detention center dubbed “Alligator Alcatraz” launched by Florida authorities is under fire, presumably from suburban wine moms.

Esty, the platform that brokers arts and crafts sold mostly by women, is getting an earful from a portion of its user base for selling Alligator Alcatraz merch.

Humorless “shop owners” who apparently prefer unsafe streets, higher taxes, and open borders are threatening to take their business elsewhere unless the offending merch is removed.

Leftist rag The Tennessee Holler was sure to put a spotlight on the trend:

The Holler was blasted for supporting what appears to be a burgeoning boycott, with many X users excited to learn that Alligator Alcatraz merch is available:

Lmfao remember when these people were furious a Christian owned bakery wouldn’t make a gay marriage cake? Now they want to demand businesses to not sell shit they don’t agree with

Typical democrat hypocrisy.

Let those losers shut down their shops. You morons cry about fascism yet again here you are using fascist tactics. Alligator Alcatraz is hilarious; you idiots need a sense of humor.

Dear @Etsy I chose to be offended by bluebirdmakery statement discriminating against a fellow seller taking avantage of an opportunity. They should be removed from the site.

Choosing to be offended by everything all of the time must be a miserable way to live.

What a ridiculous statement. “I’m gonna close down my store and be poorer because someone on TV made me think that would scare you into complying with my demands.” It’s like a child threatening to hold their breath if they dont get their lollipop, fucking infantile liberals.

I just bought a shirt for the whole family. Freedom of speech. If you don’t like it, don’t shop there. See how that works.
