That's the thing about white liberals. They don't care that most native Americans are not offended. They just think that they should be and are therefore offended for them.
It is one of the most condescending things I can imagine. Every time something like this comes up you have people talking as if the supposedly offended group is too stupid to know better. That type of thought process is 100x more insulting than the phrase or term that is usually being discussed.

Natives don't care.
It's white liberals who get offended on their behalf and make this an issue.

And they will only be happy when they are finally in the minority in America in a couple of generations. Then they can be offended for themselves, only to be told to shut up because now they don't matter.

So what, nobody cares about Native Americans.
What about Indians? Are the Indians offended?

"I'm sick of these pussy liberals being offended by everything, so I'm going to run to the MSB every time something happens to tell on them." How can that not be more pussified than what they're bitching about?
That's some major league tapdancing right there.

No shite. It's never the people involved that are actually offended. It's the damn SJW bitches that want to be offended for them.

or the old white men can tell you that it doesn't matter who gets offended in this country.

9 in 10 Native Americans not bothered by Redskins Name
The word is 100% a pejorative for Native American people plain and simple.

What will the offended white liberal sjw peeps do now?

We love to make something out of nothing in this country
And I say that as a non conservative. Pathetic how so many progressives focus on dumb shite like this when there other actual problems that legitimately need to be addressed

Not even the Washington part? I'd be offended if a sports team associated my ancestry with that city.

Stop voting for them then. They aren't fixing any real problems anyway.

They have bigger issues but I understand why many of them don't like it. Because it refers to their scalps being cut off and sold as redskins.
