Ben Jones, aka Cooter from Dukes of Hazzard, has the Liberal hand of oppression waged against him. His cart host, has deemed him "offensive", even though he is a descendant of a slave. All of his Confederate items have to be removed by tonight from his site, or the cart host will shut him down. This is temporary, as he is switching cart hosts, but the sale is very impressive.
Dinky, get you a mask half off, $5, worldwide shipping.
Flags are pretty much half off too, Im gonna get a nice embroidery one. $20 instead of $40.
Im not spamming, Im trying to show support for someone who is not an offensive person, a good person. As well as let folks know of the good sale lol.
Here is the message from Cooter....
Hey Y'all,
My daddy used to tell me, "Don't put your business in the street..." He was an old-school railroad man. He mostly kept his opinions to himself, and he had a traditional sense of what should be private.
But in show business and in politics, two careers I've had in which I'd like to think I have been reasonably successful, what you do and think becomes public, and even the things that should be private have a way of "getting out there."
So as much as I like to keep my business "close to the vest" we have suddenly found ourselves in a position in which I must speak out and also ask for the support of our friends and fans. For the last few years, our online business has been handled by a company called "Shopify", which is based up in Canada. Its a big internet outfit and works in many countries. But like so much business in the digital age, it does not have a personal touch.
Out of nowhere, totally unexpected, an unsigned e-mail arrived from Shopify which informed us that we were in violation of their "hateful content" policy, and if we didn't remove everything with the Confederate Battle Flag on it within 10 days, they were going to pull the plug on our business, basically putting our internet shop out of business.
You can probably guess what my response is. We have a really distinguished attorney, a man of character and intellect. He is dealing with that aspect of it, letting them know that this is a punitive action on their part and an unexpected body blow to our company. We will be pursuing this as a legal matter, while at the same time telling "Shopify" to "fold it four ways, tie a ribbon around it, and put it where the moon don't shine!" That is nicest way I can put it.
For we are Christian people. The Flag is a Christian Cross, the Crucifixion Cross of St. Andrew, who was thought to be Christ's first Disciple. It is a symbol which has been used for 2,000 years in his honor and memory. We honor the spirit and sacrifice of all of the South's people, and I share the blood of my African brothers and sisters. The Dukes of Hazzard has a huge African-American following, and that audience has enjoyed the sweet nature and good fun of our show as much as anyone in the 40+ nations where our show has been seen, for over 40 years now.
As one who was deeply involved in the Civil RIghts Movement of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and as one who is descended from a slave, and as one who personally knows and cares about hundreds of our African/American fans, I am offended close to the point of rage at this latest example of narrow minded sanctimony and political correctness. It is dividing our nation on a daily basis. It is wrong, and the people behind it are wrong.
So we are transferring everything to another internet web host. But that is an enormous job and will take some time. In the meanwhile, we've put all our merchandise with images of our beloved flag on sale. The sale will last through Monday, Oct. 12th. By then we'll say goodbye to Shopify.
The truly intolerant and narrow minded bigots are those who have no idea about the good hearts and the undying love of those of us who side with Uncle Jesse rather than George Soros. What kind of people would we be if we just caved to these self-righteous and narrow minded people?
Unlike these boneheads, we understand our culture, our heritage, and the great and colorblind television show that has made millions of friends around the world, who understand that our show is about people looking out for one another, regardless of their color or age or politics or whether or not they are poor or are millionaires. Hazzard Nation is a loving bunch of people who are not impressed by the latest political idiocy.
Hang in there,
Ben Jones aka "Cooter"
P.S.
Now, here is how Shopify defines "Hateful Content".
Hateful content: You may not use the Services to promote or condone hate or violence against people based on race, ethnicity, color, national origin, religion, age, gender, sexual orientation, disability, medical condition, veteran status or other forms of discriminatory intolerance. You may not use the Services to promote or support organizations, platforms or people that: (i) promote or condone such hate; or (ii) threaten or condone violence to further a cause.
Does that sound like us to you?? Seems to me that we do is the opposite of "hateful content".

If you love Dukes of Hazzard, or the South, you have to support this guy.
Put some masks in the checkout and realised the cheapest shipping was 27.00 and up to 70.00...
I don't want that much...
The article is long.....I'll read it tomorrow.
Old Cooter has a drop of chocolate in him. That I would not have guessed.
I read your entire post Blazor..
So, the problem is that Ben Jones is selling products with the Confederate American flag which is now considered a symbol of evil like the nazi flag or imperial Japan's flag.

Yes! Only its not! Its also the flag that is on the General Lee car in the show.
This not only affects Ben, aka Cooter from the show, but anyone with a Shopify cart system.

Do you mean if someone was to purchase something with the Confederate American flag on it they would be blackballed?

Im saying any website selling Confederate stuff, that has a Shopify cart system, will have their e-store closed, if those items are not removed. I saw where other stores were threatened too, or had their store shut down. Its not the customer that is affected, other than being denied the ability to purchase these items, its the store owners.

Maybe not...I have an 1848 US Army Musician's sword. It's a type of spadroon that would have been worn by army band members, battlefiedfield drummers and such, during the mid 19th century. Don't tell Blazor but it is a Yankee weapon... :laugh3:
I also have 2 rapier simulators, 1 off hand dagger and 1 complex hilt side sword that were custom made for me for historical 17th century rapier fencing. They are blunts made by Darkwood Armory. I needed to learn how to handle a rapier for my Renn Faire work and I ended up working with a classical fencing group out of NYC that taught 17th century rapier from the old 17th century treatises. I still have the the published reproduction fencing manuals from several of the old masters like Capoferro, Fabris and Agrippa.

It came to me from my father and I believe it came to him from a cousin. I don't know how it ended up in our family exactly.
As for people wanting to buy it...I wish that were the case. These type of military swords from the 19th century are quite common and have very little value outside collector or reenactment circles. In fact I saw one on Ebay going for about $200 dollars not long ago. My custom rapier simulators are actually worth more.

My maternal grandmother was born in Japan. She came to Canada as a child and was interned during the second world war. I don't have any Oriental features and I have a German surname, so some people don't believe I have some Japanese blood.

I would guess you're the only person on any of these forums who owns a real sword.
Maybe not...I have an 1848 US Army Musician's sword. It's a type of spadroon that would have been worn by army band members, battlefiedfield drummers and such, during the mid 19th century. Don't tell Blazor but it is a Yankee weapon... :laugh3:
I also have 2 rapier simulators, 1 off hand dagger and 1 complex hilt side sword that were custom made for me for historical 17th century rapier fencing. They are blunts made by Darkwood Armory. I needed to learn how to handle a rapier for my Renn Faire work and I ended up working with a classical fencing group out of NYC that taught 17th century rapier from the old 17th century treatises. I still have the the published reproduction fencing manuals from several of the old masters like Capoferro, Fabris and Agrippa.
Thats really cool Renee!!!

You would be right, I'm definitely a libertarian....I vote GOP only because I have no viable choice as do most libertarian/conservatives.

Ben Jones, aka Cooter from Dukes of Hazzard, has the Liberal hand of oppression waged against him. His cart host, has deemed him "offensive", even though he is a descendant of a slave. All of his Confederate items have to be removed by tonight from his site, or the cart host will shut him down. This is temporary, as he is switching cart hosts, but the sale is very impressive.
Dinky, get you a mask half off, $5, worldwide shipping.
Flags are pretty much half off too, Im gonna get a nice embroidery one. $20 instead of $40.
Im not spamming, Im trying to show support for someone who is not an offensive person, a good person. As well as let folks know of the good sale lol.
Here is the message from Cooter....
Hey Y'all,
My daddy used to tell me, "Don't put your business in the street..." He was an old-school railroad man. He mostly kept his opinions to himself, and he had a traditional sense of what should be private.
But in show business and in politics, two careers I've had in which I'd like to think I have been reasonably successful, what you do and think becomes public, and even the things that should be private have a way of "getting out there."
So as much as I like to keep my business "close to the vest" we have suddenly found ourselves in a position in which I must speak out and also ask for the support of our friends and fans. For the last few years, our online business has been handled by a company called "Shopify", which is based up in Canada. Its a big internet outfit and works in many countries. But like so much business in the digital age, it does not have a personal touch.
Out of nowhere, totally unexpected, an unsigned e-mail arrived from Shopify which informed us that we were in violation of their "hateful content" policy, and if we didn't remove everything with the Confederate Battle Flag on it within 10 days, they were going to pull the plug on our business, basically putting our internet shop out of business.
You can probably guess what my response is. We have a really distinguished attorney, a man of character and intellect. He is dealing with that aspect of it, letting them know that this is a punitive action on their part and an unexpected body blow to our company. We will be pursuing this as a legal matter, while at the same time telling "Shopify" to "fold it four ways, tie a ribbon around it, and put it where the moon don't shine!" That is nicest way I can put it.
For we are Christian people. The Flag is a Christian Cross, the Crucifixion Cross of St. Andrew, who was thought to be Christ's first Disciple. It is a symbol which has been used for 2,000 years in his honor and memory. We honor the spirit and sacrifice of all of the South's people, and I share the blood of my African brothers and sisters. The Dukes of Hazzard has a huge African-American following, and that audience has enjoyed the sweet nature and good fun of our show as much as anyone in the 40+ nations where our show has been seen, for over 40 years now.
As one who was deeply involved in the Civil RIghts Movement of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and as one who is descended from a slave, and as one who personally knows and cares about hundreds of our African/American fans, I am offended close to the point of rage at this latest example of narrow minded sanctimony and political correctness. It is dividing our nation on a daily basis. It is wrong, and the people behind it are wrong.
So we are transferring everything to another internet web host. But that is an enormous job and will take some time. In the meanwhile, we've put all our merchandise with images of our beloved flag on sale. The sale will last through Monday, Oct. 12th. By then we'll say goodbye to Shopify.
The truly intolerant and narrow minded bigots are those who have no idea about the good hearts and the undying love of those of us who side with Uncle Jesse rather than George Soros. What kind of people would we be if we just caved to these self-righteous and narrow minded people?
Unlike these boneheads, we understand our culture, our heritage, and the great and colorblind television show that has made millions of friends around the world, who understand that our show is about people looking out for one another, regardless of their color or age or politics or whether or not they are poor or are millionaires. Hazzard Nation is a loving bunch of people who are not impressed by the latest political idiocy.
Hang in there,
Ben Jones aka "Cooter"
P.S.
Now, here is how Shopify defines "Hateful Content".
Hateful content: You may not use the Services to promote or condone hate or violence against people based on race, ethnicity, color, national origin, religion, age, gender, sexual orientation, disability, medical condition, veteran status or other forms of discriminatory intolerance. You may not use the Services to promote or support organizations, platforms or people that: (i) promote or condone such hate; or (ii) threaten or condone violence to further a cause.
Does that sound like us to you?? Seems to me that we do is the opposite of "hateful content".

A few years ago, when this attack started, they did remove the show from the Rerun channels. Was deemed "racist", of course cause of the flag. Even though that flag flew over many ethnic backgrounds.
