Hey there, so I haven’t personally had any experience ordering from TKS, but her newest BLM hoodie seems like pretty performative activism. Making a hoodie doesn’t cost anywhere near $70, and she’s been pretty vague as to where she’s donating the funds. Has anybody checked to see if it’s legit?
No, her hoodie manufacturing would cost nowhere near $70, and I’m pretty sure thats more than her usual hoodies? This is a BLACK BASE HOODIE WITH SINGLE COLOR PRINTING. $70 is insane.
She’s shown she has no shame about making profit off of minorities, such as her tone-deaf pride sets (lets not forget her infamous hetero hoodie, being called out for it and her subsequent meltdown) despite being a cis, straight woman.
Of course you can be cis, straight, non black activist but all of her hoodies are marked up to the full, and in the end, despite donating, SHE will make the most profit from cost cutting and clout alone. It’s really gross to see, especially when she’s marketing to young cosplay minors who will be in the market for LGBT or BLM wear.
Unfortunately me and the other admin have not been able to find out where she’s donating, but the profit would be in the thousands. If anybody has any idea where this is going, please inbox us.
As well as that, the design is fucking awful -
- and considering the political sphere rn, as well as how rabid police are currently, would probably be dangerous to wear out in the street. But profit over the safety of protesters and minors, right Lupita? It’s not like the hoodies will show up sooner than six months anyway :)
