Amazon, purveyor of outrageous and insensitive goods like Nazi festive ornaments, sexist political merchandise and racially-abusive AirPods, is once again at the chopping board for letting a pig oil-infused pepper spray retail on its platform.
Spotted by Boing Boing, the racist spray called ‘Porktector™’ is marketed as a weapon against “Muslim rape gangs” in Europe and the United States.
“Just warning an Radical Islamic attacker, like the rape gangs all through Europe, that there is pig oil in the spray may be enough to send them running without having to spray,” the product description read.
“We would hope that just threatening to spray the attackers with our swine oil infused pepper spray would be enough to stop them, and send them running for fear of going to HELL,” it continued.
The listing has since been removed, but the company’s social media accounts are still live. Its Twitter profile describes the spray as “THE self-defense weapon for all your needs” and features a stream of tweets against radicalized Muslims.
For obvious reasons, the product has been described by social media users as “completely f**ked up” and “breathtakingly racist.”
