If they named the org the Washington Whiteskins, the same idiots would claim that is racist since you are exalting white men. If named after red men, its degrading and racist; if named after white men it's supremacy and racist!

We have The Emperors New Clothes playing out on a world wide scale now and it gets more absurd each day.

It will be hilarious to me if they choose RedTails.

"Okay, we're deeply sorry and we will change the name. Out of respect to minority group A, we have decided to change the name of the team to something that honors minority group B. You're welcome."

What's funny is that Redtails keeps a bit of Native American tradition, but more so gives credence to BLM, while still (in my opinion) maintaining a pretty awesome logo. They could have done worse.

But somebody will be butt hurt no matter what you do.

I bet a lot of native Americans get POed if they do that. Liberal lunacy!

No matter the team name that is selected, Snyder had better get it approved first by the speech czar.

Said this on the original thread. Absolutely insulting to cast aside one ethnic group to advance a virtue signal for a completely separate ethnic group.

You are flat out telling Native Americans they don't matter and are being swept under the rug.

Lol. Leftism is insane.

Couple of thoughts.

I would be curious to see how actual native American feel about this. I remember the last tiem this kicked up there will polls showing natives against a chance like 85-15. I bet, after teaching victim hood for a generation that has changed a bit.

But it doesnt really matter. This has nothing to do with race in the end. That's not the left's end game.

Wonder if there are a whole lot of people *****ing about a NFL team name that claimed they'd NEVER watch the NFL again?

This is about the biggest why should I give a **** about this story I've ever heard....Does the name change really effect your life in any way whatsoever?

Ironic again that the Washington Bullets were among the first non-PC pro sports teams that had to change their names. I guess the Irish, as usual, didn't really mind (Celtics seem perturbed too).

DC is really the epicenter of irony in the universe. This is the funniest one though to me;

Quote:

1975- St. Bonaventure University drops the name Brown Squaws for its women's teams when, as one former player put it, "a Seneca chief and clan mothers came over from the reservation and asked us to stop using the name, because it meant vagina." Seventeen years later, men's and women's team names are officially changed from the Brown Indians to the Bonnies.

That's pretty much every human group if you go back far enough, sadly.
Agree with you point, but it's important to point out that the USA never glorified any of that, while guilty of some of it. Frontier life was never easy, nor simple. Life and death decisions were an almost daily occurrence for many. It's difficult for modern Americans to comprehend such a life, much less excuse it. There exists a gross lack of perspective amongst both the teachers, and the taught.

So many people today want the opportunity to proclaim to be offended on behalf of others and never bother to determine if those others are truly offended or if it is only a small activist fraction engaged in political manipulations via a claim offense that Is then merely amplified by these outsiders, against the wishes of the majority.
